    Electrical rechargeable battery in the form of a button cell}
    The present invention relates to an electric rechargeable battery having a case of a button cell-type case closed to be hermetic, which includes a case cover, a case cup and an electrically insulating seal, and includes an electrode set consisting of a positive electrode and a negative electrode, a separator and an electrolyte. do. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a rechargeable battery.
    The button cell has a plurality of positive and negative electrodes, a separator and an electrolyte arranged on top of each other, and have a cylindrical or oval hermetic case. The button cell itself comprises a case cup and a case cover with an electrically insulating plastic seal disposed therebetween. Usually the polarity of the case cup is positive and the polarity of the case cover is negative. In a conventional button cell, the electrode is an electrode in the form of a compressed powder tablet held in a fine pure nickel network. It is also known that a paste-shaped nickel foam electrode is used as a base material, from which an electrode of a button cell is cast.
    Regardless of the type of electrode used, these conventional button cells have a limited electrical load capacity of about 1CA during continuous discharge, where 1CA is the discharge current level that allows the battery capacitance to be discharged within an hour. Therefore, these button cells are only suitable for special applications that require relatively low current. Therefore, they cannot replace traditional round cells that allow much larger discharge currents. A button cell comprising a plurality of electrodes of one polarity is known, of which DE-C 3022907 announces an electrode array comprising an electrode set consisting of three electrodes, of which two outermost electrodes are connected to each other with one output and the center electrode. It is provided with a contact pin passing through one external electrode and is electrically connected to the case cover via it.
    In GB-PS 1 512 211, an electrically connected electrode at one point on the corner is positioned inside the other electrode, and a zigzag folded separator is sandwiched therebetween.
    DE-B 1194471 discloses a rechargeable battery that is hermetically closed and includes two sets of electrode plates in layers on top of each other, with thin separators arranged therebetween. In this case the electrode plates in each set form a coherent strip, which is folded so that the folded plates of another set of plates are positioned between the plates of the first set and the separators are disposed therebetween. In each set, a series-connected plate is provided with a tongue-like connecting tab cut from the base metal foil.
    The use of known embodiments of button cells having a plurality of electrode plates of one polarity requires a great deal of effort to keep the stack in the correct position and to fit the electrode case in the correct order during various manufacturing steps.
    The present invention aims at a rechargeable battery in the form of a button cell which can be economically produced in a manner suitable for automation, with power equivalent to that of a round cell and a prism type cell.

    The electrode set includes n electrodes of one polarity and n + 1 electrodes of the other polarity. A small amount of electrodes is connected to the contact plate according to the invention. In this case N is a natural number of 1 to 15 and the maximum number of electrodes is limited by the electrode thickness. If an n electrode of one polarity is surrounded by an n + 1 electrode of another polarity, the contact plate is electrically insulated from the electrode of the other polarity by the separator. The separator mentioned above is used simultaneously as an electrolyte reservoir.
    The electrode according to the invention has a conductive base consisting of a metal mesh, metal foil, metal grid, network, felt or foam in which each electrode material is contained therein, using a pasting or compression method.

Are connected to each other by The case cup 1 has a notch 4 which acts as a weak point in the form of a plus sign. In addition to the normal electrolyte. In the example of FIG. 1 two anodes 5 and two cathodes 6 are provided, which are separated from one another by a separator 7. Contact plates 8 are also provided.
    The configuration according to the invention is detailed in FIG. 4. According to the invention, the anode 5 and the cathode 6 have at least two output tabs 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b arranged, for example, on opposite sides, offset diagonally on the circumference of the electrode. After stacking the electrodes 5, 6, the separator 7 and the contact plate 8, the tabs 6a, 6b of the cathode are connected to each other by a crimping or welding process. The tabs 5a, 5b of the anode are also connected to each other in the same way and the corresponding connections to the lugs 8a, 8b of the contact plate 8 are simultaneously created. The electrode packet 9 of FIG. 4 can be treated as a complete set of electrodes as long as these connections are formed and can be fitted to a button cell without particular difficulty.
    In addition, the contact plate 8 has protrusions 10 distributed circumferentially.
    An electrode packet 9, which can be transported and handled by a robot, is mounted to the case cover 2 and provided with a seal 3. After that, the case cup 1 is fitted. According to the invention the seal 3 has a molded stud 3.1 through which the protrusion 10 of the electrode packet 9 or the contact plate 8 is pressed against the case cup 1 during the clinching process. .
    The output taps 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b can be connected using various known methods. It is advantageous to carry out ultrasonic welding or spot welding. If necessary, a contact plate 8 schematically shown in FIG. 5 may be used, which has contact tabs 8a and 8b with additional lugs 8c. The tabs 5a, 5b of the anode 5 can engage these lugs and the tabs 5a, 5b and lugs 8c can be electrically and mechanically firmly connected to each other by means of a crimping process. The contact plate 8 has a hole 8d to allow the electrolyte to pass correctly through the electrode packet.
    It is advantageous that the separators 7 are at least partially welded to each other at the edges which hang on the electrodes 5, 6.
    Instead of the ellipsoid shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the battery according to the present invention may be constructed as a cylindrical battery as shown in FIG. 6.
    In this case, the rectangular positive electrode plates 5 are connected to each other on opposite sides and the negative electrode plates 6 are connected to each other in the same manner. The seal 3 has at least two studs 3.1 for pressing the contact plate 8 against the bottom of the battery cup 1. The separators 7 are welded to each other at the corners 7.1 of the electrode packet 9.
    7 shows in detail an electrode set 9 suitable for a cylindrical button cell. According to FIG. 7, the cathode 6 and the anode 5 are provided with output tabs 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, which are located on opposite sides and welded to each other, and the anode 5 is located at the bottom contact. It is also welded to the plate 8. According to FIG. 8, the cathode 6 is connected using a known welding method or an ultrasonic welding method, but the connecting tabs 5a and 5b of the anode 5 and the contact plate 8 are crimped by the lugs 8c. By connecting to each other.
    According to the present invention, the robust and easy-to-handle electrode set configuration allows the amount of the positive electrode and the negative electrode to be changed as necessary, and the capacitance and physical aspects of the battery can also be changed within a wide range. The use of a large number of thin electrodes allows the construction of electrically rechargeable batteries that can be subjected to high current loads. The load capacitance of the button cell according to the present invention can be further improved by using an n electrode of one polarity and an n + 1 electrode of another polarity.
    Usable electrodes can be produced from strip electrodes, allowing for automated production. The electrode material is applied to the base material in paste form using a compression technique.
    The positive electrode of the rechargeable battery according to the present invention may include nickel hydroxide as the active material and the negative electrode may include cadmium or hydrogen storage alloy as the active material, or the positive electrode contains a lithium ion-containing chalcogenide and the negative electrode is the active material. It may include a compound that absorbs lithium as. In the case of a battery having a nickel hydroxide positive electrode and a hydrogen storage alloy negative electrode, potassium hydroxide is used as an electrolyte in addition to sodium hydroxide and lithium hydroxide.
