由(you)于可(ke)變(bian)(bian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)40的(de)厚度小于通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)45中(zhong)的(de)突出(chu)部46的(de)厚度,所以相比于可(ke)變(bian)(bian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)40,突出(chu)部46的(de)熱容(rong)(rong)量更大(da),因(yin)此,在(zai)從第2電(dian)極連接(jie)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)18通(tong)(tong)(tong)過通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)45向可(ke)變(bian)(bian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)40通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)的(de)情(qing)況下,所產生的(de)熱主要由(you)熱容(rong)(rong)量較大(da)的(de)通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)45吸收(shou),能夠(gou)(gou)避免可(ke)變(bian)(bian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)(jian)40的(de)溫度上升至達到熔斷(duan),能夠(gou)(gou)充分(fen)確保(bao)通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)時間。
通(tong)電構(gou)(gou)件45配置(zhi)在(zai)設置(zhi)于封口(kou)板(ban)21的(de)第(di)1凹部24a內(nei)。因(yin)此(ci),在(zai)可變(bian)構(gou)(gou)件40發(fa)生了變(bian)形時,朝(chao)向第(di)2電極連接構(gou)(gou)件18,使通(tong)電構(gou)(gou)件45沿(yan)一個方向順利地移動。另外(wai),優選設置(zhi)于封口(kou)板(ban)21的(de)第(di)1凹部24a的(de)深度大于第(di)2凹部24b的(de)深度。
這(zhe)里(li),優(you)選即使在(zai)可變(bian)構(gou)件40變(bian)形而通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件45與第2電(dian)極(ji)連接構(gou)件18接觸之后,通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件45的一部分也配置在(zai)設置于封口板21的第1凹(ao)部24a內。
由此,能夠(gou)使通電構件(jian)45和第2電極(ji)連接(jie)構件(jian)18的接(jie)觸(chu)位(wei)置(zhi)在規(gui)定(ding)(ding)位(wei)置(zhi)穩定(ding)(ding)地接(jie)觸(chu),能夠(gou)更可靠地形成穩定(ding)(ding)的短路路徑。
優選(xuan)通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)45并(bing)未通(tong)(tong)(tong)過粘(zhan)合、焊接(jie)等與封(feng)口板(ban)21連接(jie),而僅是(shi)配(pei)置在封(feng)口板(ban)21上。但是(shi),也可以(yi)由(you)較弱的(de)(de)力將通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)45連接(jie)于封(feng)口板(ban)21,以(yi)至于通(tong)(tong)(tong)過可變構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)40的(de)(de)變形而能夠使通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)45移動的(de)(de)程度。例(li)如,可以(yi)考慮(lv)通(tong)(tong)(tong)過粘(zhan)合劑等將通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)45粘(zhan)合于封(feng)口板(ban)21的(de)(de)方(fang)法(fa)、局部地將通(tong)(tong)(tong)電(dian)(dian)構(gou)(gou)件(jian)(jian)45焊接(jie)于封(feng)口板(ban)21的(de)(de)方(fang)法(fa)等。
可(ke)(ke)變構件(jian)40配(pei)置在設置于封(feng)口板21的(de)(de)第2凹部24b內,可(ke)(ke)變構件(jian)40的(de)(de)周緣(yuan)部被焊接于第2凹部24b的(de)(de)邊緣(yuan),所以(yi)可(ke)(ke)變構件(jian)40可(ke)(ke)靠(kao)地(di)電連接/固定于封(feng)口板21,并且可(ke)(ke)靠(kao)地(di)密閉(bi)了第1貫通孔25。
在電(dian)池內部(bu)的壓(ya)力(li)(li)(li)變(bian)為(wei)規定(ding)值以上(shang)(shang)時,可變(bian)構(gou)件(jian)40變(bian)形而對(dui)通(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)45施加向上(shang)(shang)的力(li)(li)(li),由于(yu)該力(li)(li)(li)致使(shi)彈(dan)性構(gou)件(jian)55收縮,通(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)45與第2電(dian)極連接構(gou)件(jian)18接觸(chu),因此不產生通(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)45自身的變(bian)形,用于(yu)使(shi)通(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)45變(bian)形的應(ying)力(li)(li)(li)損失少,動作壓(ya)力(li)(li)(li)穩(wen)定(ding)。此外,因為(wei)存在彈(dan)性構(gou)件(jian)55,所以能夠可靠地防止通(tong)(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)45和第2電(dian)極連接構(gou)件(jian)18的誤接觸(chu)。另外,若突出(chu)部(bu)46的上(shang)(shang)表(biao)面平坦,則與第2電(dian)極連接構(gou)件(jian)18的接觸(chu)面積變(bian)大(da),優(you)選(xuan)。
由(you)于可變構件40的(de)(de)中央部的(de)(de)按壓部42的(de)(de)上表(biao)面(mian)平坦且(qie)具有(you)一定程度的(de)(de)面(mian)積,因(yin)此能夠(gou)(gou)將通電(dian)(dian)構件45可靠地(di)向上推壓而使突出部46與第2電(dian)(dian)極連接(jie)構件18可靠地(di)接(jie)觸,并且(qie)能夠(gou)(gou)降低按壓部42和通電(dian)(dian)構件45的(de)(de)接(jie)觸部分的(de)(de)通電(dian)(dian)電(dian)(dian)阻,從而能夠(gou)(gou)減少熔(rong)斷的(de)(de)風(feng)險。
-變形例-
在(zai)上述(shu)實施(shi)方式中,示出了在(zai)可(ke)變(bian)構件40的(de)(de)變(bian)形前(qian)的(de)(de)狀態下正(zheng)極(ji)板(ban)、封(feng)(feng)口(kou)(kou)板(ban)21以(yi)及(ji)可(ke)變(bian)構件40電連(lian)接(jie)(jie)的(de)(de)形態。但是,這種(zhong)結構不是必須的(de)(de)。也可(ke)以(yi)是如下機(ji)構:在(zai)可(ke)變(bian)構件40的(de)(de)變(bian)形前(qian)的(de)(de)狀態下,封(feng)(feng)口(kou)(kou)板(ban)21與正(zheng)極(ji)板(ban)以(yi)及(ji)負(fu)極(ji)板(ban)的(de)(de)任(ren)意一者都(dou)不電連(lian)接(jie)(jie),在(zai)外封(feng)(feng)裝(zhuang)體20的(de)(de)內部壓力變(bian)為(wei)設定(ding)值以(yi)上時(shi),正(zheng)極(ji)板(ban)和(he)封(feng)(feng)口(kou)(kou)板(ban)21電連(lian)接(jie)(jie),并(bing)且負(fu)極(ji)和(he)封(feng)(feng)口(kou)(kou)板(ban)21電連(lian)接(jie)(jie)。圖(tu)4中示出這種(zhong)變(bian)形例。
如圖4所(suo)示,在(zai)(zai)本(ben)變形(xing)例(li)所(suo)涉(she)及(ji)的(de)二次電(dian)池中,在(zai)(zai)正極(ji)側也配(pei)置與(yu)(yu)負極(ji)側相同材質、相同形(xing)狀的(de)可變構(gou)件(jian)(jian)40b、通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)(jian)45b、絕緣構(gou)件(jian)(jian)19b,形(xing)成了與(yu)(yu)負極(ji)相同的(de)用于(yu)短路(lu)的(de)機構(gou)。此外,可變構(gou)件(jian)(jian)40b以(yi)及(ji)通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)(jian)45b與(yu)(yu)正極(ji)端子15電(dian)絕緣。而且,若(ruo)電(dian)池內部壓(ya)(ya)力變為規定值以(yi)上(shang)(shang),則(ze)可變構(gou)件(jian)(jian)40b變形(xing)而將(jiang)通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)(jian)45b向上(shang)(shang)方推壓(ya)(ya),通(tong)電(dian)構(gou)件(jian)(jian)45b與(yu)(yu)正極(ji)連接(jie)構(gou)件(jian)(jian)17接(jie)觸。
在本變形例中(zhong),在電池內部壓力不(bu)足規定值的情(qing)況下,封口板21與(yu)正(zheng)極、負極的任意一(yi)者都不(bu)電連接,因此安全(quan)性更高。
