(4) 1232605 【實施方式】 茲佐以圖面說明本發明之電池盒。 第1圖所示的電池盒，是具備：外裝殼1、及裝設於 此外裝殼1的薄型電池2。薄型電池2，是將電池的厚度 作成比電池的寬還薄的二次電池。薄型電池2，是鋰離子 二次電池，或聚合物電池。聚合物電池是鋰聚合物電池。 但是，本發明，並不特定薄型電池爲鋰離子二次電池或聚 合物電池。在薄型電池中，此等電池以外的電池，例如 鎳-氫電池或鎳-鎘電池也可以。 外裝殻1，是由絕緣材成形製作。供成形外裝殻1用 的絕緣材較好是塑膠。圖的外裝殼1，設有將薄型電池2 的表背面朝外部露出的開口部3，並成形供覆蓋薄型電池 2的兩側面及兩端面的方形框形。外裝殻丨，是具備：覆 蓋薄型電池2的兩側面的側面殻部1 a、及覆蓋薄型電池2 的兩端面的端部殼部1 b。側面殻部1 a，如第2圖所示的 橫斷面圖，將保持溝4設在內面。外裝殼1，是將薄型電 池2的兩側面的中央突出部放入側面殻部ia的保持溝4 。此構造的外裝殼1，是由側面殻部1 a被保持在薄型電 池2的兩側，薄型電池2是如圖的箭頭A，B所示，供防 止朝表背方向脫落。如第2圖所示的剖面圖，在中央具有 突出部的薄型電池2，是藉由將突出部放入保持溝4，而 不需將側面殻部1 a突出至薄型電池2的表背面，就可以 阻止朝表背方向的偏離。鋰離子二次電池或聚合物電池等 -9- (5) 1232605 的薄型電池，是將兩側面作成以預定的曲率半徑彎曲的形 狀。呈彎曲面的薄型電池2的兩側面，沿著角落緣具有倒 角部，且在中央具有突出部。因此，倒角部，是作爲導引 保持溝4的兩側壁導引的構造，使側面殻部1 a不會突出 薄型電池2的表背，同時可以阻止薄型電池2的表背方向 的偏離。但是，本發明的電池盒，不一定是要在側面殻部 1 a設有保持溝4，也可以將薄型電池的兩側面在側面殻部 的內面由接合劑接合，或者是由粘接劑附著，或者是由兩 面粘接帶附著固定。 外裝殼1，是如第2圖及第3圖的剖面圖所示，將側 面殼部1 a及端部殼部1 b的兩方形成不會從薄型電池2的 表背面突出的形狀，且將外裝殻1的厚度形成幾乎與薄型 電池2的厚度相等。圖的外裝殼1，是將側面殻部1 a及 端部殼部1 b的一部分形成與薄型電池2的表背面同一平 面。在薄型電池2的表背接合有標籤等的絕緣薄片7的電 池盒，只是相當於絕緣薄片7的厚度將外裝殻1形成比薄 型電池2厚，所以可將薄型電池2及外裝殻1作成相同厚 但是，本發明的電池盒，可將外裝殼比薄型電池還薄 地成形，且，也可以使外裝殻形成稍從薄型電池的表面突 出的形狀。外裝殼從薄型電池突出的電池盒，可將讓突出 部嵌入的凹部設在電子機器的電池裝設部地裝設在電子機 器。因此，在本說明書中，將外裝殼的厚度作成比薄型電 池的厚度的幾乎相等的意思，是包含：外裝殼從薄型電池 -10- (6) 1232605 的表面稍微突出的程度，例如，在1 m m以下突出的程度 下，使在外裝殼比薄型電池厚的狀態。 第1圖及第3圖的電池盒，是在外裝殼1的端部殼部 1 b內，配設輸出接觸子8的接觸子支架5。圖的電、池盒， 是在將薄型電池2的凸部電極1 0側覆蓋的端部殼部1 &內 藏接觸子支架5，並在此配設輸出接觸子8。凸部電極10 及相反側的端部殼部lb，是覆蓋薄型電池2的底面。接 觸子支架5，是由絕緣材成形製作。由成形接觸子支架5 的絕緣材，較好是塑膠。接觸子支架5，是將其外形，形 成與薄型電池2的凸部電極1 0的端面的外形的幾乎相等 ，或者是比端面的外形稍微小，且從電池端面看薄型電池 2的狀態下，接觸子支架5不會從薄型電池2朝外部突出 的形狀。此接觸子支架5，是在與電池端面的相面對面的 相反側設有一對的輸出接觸子8。輸出接觸子8是金屬板 ，且作爲輸出接觸子8的金屬板，是被固定於接觸子支架 5，或者是被挾固在接觸子支架5及外裝殻1之間地被固 定於固定定位置。 接觸子支架5，是配置於外裝殼1的端部殻部lb的 內部。配置於此的接觸子支架5，是被挾固在端部殼部1 b 的內面及薄型電池2的電池端面之間地被固定於固定位置 。外裝殼1，是在端部殼部lb開口一電極窗13°電極窗 13，是將固定在在接觸子支架5的輸出接觸子8露出於外 裝殼1的外部。因此’電極窗13’是將接觸子支架5固 定於外裝殼1的內部的固定位置，且開口於可讓輸出接觸 -11 - (7) 1232605 子8朝外部露出的位置。內藏在外裝殻1的接觸子支架5 ’是被按壓在薄型電池2地被固定於固定位置，而將輸出 接觸子8配置在正確地固定位置。但是，接觸子支架，也 可以配設在外裝殻的側面殻部的內部。配設於此的接觸子 支架，是被挾固在側面殼部的內面及薄型電池的電池側面 之間地被固定於固定位置。此外裝殻，是將電極窗開口在 側面殼部，並將固定在接觸子支架的輸出接觸子露出於外 裝殼的外部。 電池盒，是將一對的輸出接觸子8，隔著保護元件1 2 ，連接於薄型電池2的正負的電極。第4圖，是顯示電池 盒的電路圖。此電池盒，是將正負的電極，隔著保護元件 12連接於一對的輸出接觸子8。一方的電極是隔著PTC連 接於輸出接觸子8 ’他方的電極是隔著保險絲連接於輸出 接觸子8。此電路圖的電池盒，是將正極側的輸出接觸子 8隔著保險絲連接於薄型電池2的正極，將負極側的輸出 接觸子8隔著PTC連接於薄型電池2的負極。與此電路圖 相反，也可以連接PTC及保險絲。且，將兩方的輸出接 觸子8隔著保險絲連接於薄型電池2的電極，或者是隔著 PTC連接於薄型電池2的電極。在薄型電池2的正負的兩 電極連接保護元件12的電池盒，即使將輸出接觸子8及 薄型電池2的電極及弄錯而短路也可以安全地使用。其是 因爲薄型電池2的任一電極即使連接於輸出接觸子8，保 護元件12會動作並遮断短路電流。電池盒，是將外裝罐 及凸部電極10的雙方的表面絕緣。因此，對於通常的使 -12- (8) 1232605 用狀態，短路電流是不會導流。但是，將薄型電池2的外 裝罐的表面被覆的絕緣薄片7破損，或者是在外裝殼1的 內部金屬線被插入而與凸部電極1 0接觸的話，短路電流 會導通。例如，薄型電池2的外裝罐及負極側的輸出接觸 子8是由金屬連接時，外裝罐的絕緣是不完全的話，短路 電流會導通。且，在外裝殼1及薄型電池2之間金屬線被 插入，且此金屬線是與正極側的輸出接觸子8接觸的話短 路電流會導通。在兩輸出接觸子8及正負的電極之間連接 保護元件1 2的電池盒，短路電流導通的話，其會動作而 遮断短路電流。 保護元件1 2，是如第5圖的剖面圖所示，配置於接 觸子支架5的內部。圖的接觸子支架5，是在薄型電池2 的相面對面設有保護元件12的收納部14，並在此配置保 護元件12。接觸子支架5的無電池盒，是在外裝殼1的 端部殻部1 b設有收納部，並在此內藏保護元件1 2。 圖的電池盒，是具備保護元件12作爲保護電路。但 是，電池盒，也可以將檢測電流若渦流導通的話遮断電流 的電路、檢測電池電壓並檢測電池的過充電或過放電而遮 断電流的電路等，內藏於接觸子支架5或外裝殼1來作爲 保護電路。內藏有保護電路的外裝殼1，是設有收納此的 收納室14，在此內藏保護電路並與外部絕緣。保護電路 ，是將電子零件實裝在印刷電路基板而實現。內藏保護電 路的電池盒，是在將輸出接觸子8配置於定位置的接觸子 支架5內藏保護電路，將此接觸子支架5內藏在外裝殻1 13- 1232605 Ο) 的端部殼部1 b也可以。內藏保護電路的接觸子支架，也 可以內藏在外裝殼的側面殼部。 薄型電池2，是如第6圖所示，在配設接觸子支架5 的電池端面配設絕緣環9。電池端面，因爲是配設在設有 薄型電池2的凸部電極1 〇的電池端面，所以絕緣環9也 配置於凸部電極1 0的電池端面。被配置於此的絕緣環9 ，是設有供將凸部電極10突出用的貫通孔11，在此貫通 孔1 1將凸部電極1 0放入，並使其固定於電池端面而與電 池端面絕緣。絕緣環9，是接合固定於電池端面，或者是 ，隔著兩面接合帶地接合固定在電池端面，或者是隔著粘 接層，接合固定在電池端面。絕緣環9的寬（W1 )，是比電 池端面的寬（W2)還小。進一步，絕緣環9的長度，也比接 觸子支架5的長度還短較佳。此絕緣環9，是如第3圖的 剖面圖所示，嵌入接觸子支架5的內側而被固定於固定位 置。 絕緣環9，是由塑膠等的絕緣材成形製作。絕緣環， 是如第7圖及第8圖所示，可以在上面將被嵌合於保護元 件或接觸子支架的嵌合凸部7 1 6 —體地成形。圖的絕緣環 79，是將肋狀的嵌合凸部71 6設在兩端部分。嵌合凸部 7 1 6，是如第9圖所示，嵌合在配置於電池端面的保護元 件7 1 2，且將其等保持在固定位置。進一步，將接觸子支 架的下面，成形成可以嵌合在嵌合凸部7 1 6的形狀，而可 以將嵌合凸部716嵌合在接觸子支架，並將接觸子支架配 置於固定位置。然而，第7圖至第9圖中，710是表示凸 -14- (10) 1232605 部電極，711是表示貫通孔，715是表示簧片。 且，在薄型電池2，72的電池端面配置絕緣環9、79 的電池盒’是可以由絕緣環9，7 9將薄型電池2、7 2的長 度的尺寸誤差吸収的構造。特別是，在絕緣環9、79，使 用：厚度可彈性地變形的薄片材，例如非織布、絕緣紙、 橡膠狀彈性薄片’就可由1枚的絕緣環9、79將薄型電池 2，72的尺寸誤差吸収。且，不彈性地變形的絕緣環9、 79，藉由調整層疊枚數，就可以將薄型電池2、72的尺寸 誤差吸収。但是，由絕緣環9、79將薄型電池2，72的尺 寸誤差吸収的電池盒，並非將絕緣環接觸子支架的內側完 全地放入，而是形成：將絕緣環的一部分，或者是全周， 由電池端面及接觸子支架挾固，並由絕緣環的彈性復元力 按壓接觸子支架的構造。此構造的電池盒，是無關薄型電 池的尺寸，就可將接觸子支架配置於外裝殼的固定位置， 並將輸出接觸子配置於正確地位置。 第1圖〜第3圖的外裝殼1，是具備在薄型電池2的 表背面被分割的第1殻1A及第2殻1B。第1殻1A及第 2殼1 B，是相互地連結側壁17而裝設在薄型電池2。第1 殻1 A及第2殼1 B，是分別具備側面殼部1 a及端部殼部 1 b。第1殻1A及第2殻1B，是將側面殼部1 a的側壁17 相互地連結，且，第1殻1A及第2殼1B的端部殼部1 b 也連結側壁17。第1殻1A及第2殼1 B，是相互地將側壁 1 7的相面對面超音波熔接而簡単且確實地被連結。被超 音波熔接的第1殼1 A及第2殼1 B，是由熱可塑性的塑膠 -15- (11) 1232605 一體地成形。被超音波熔接的側壁17的相面對面，是如 第10圖的立體圖及第2圖的剖面圖所示，在一方設有縱 溝，在他方設有供放入縱溝的凸條，且在將凸條放入縱溝 的狀態下進行超音波熔接，而更確實地不會分離地被熔接 連結。但是，第1殼1A及第2殻1B，也可以將相面對面 相互地接合連結。 圖的外裝殼1，是將第1殼1A及第2殼1B的側壁17 作成幾乎相同高度。此外裝殻1，是將薄型電池2放入第 1殼1A，之後，連結第2殻1B的側壁17在第1殼1A， 在此狀態下，就可將側壁17超音波熔接連結。如此，被 連結的外裝殼1，藉由將凸條放入設在側壁17的相面對 面的縱溝，就可以不使第1殻1A及第2殻1B的側壁17 位置偏離地連結。因此，在此狀態下連結的話，就可以將 兩側壁1 7連結在正確地位置。 被收納於相互地連結的第1殼1A及第2殻1 B的薄 型電池2，是如第2圖的剖面圖及第10圖的背面圖所示 ，在表面將標籤等的絕緣薄片7接合而被覆蓋。絕緣薄片 7，如第1圖所示，是將外裝殻1的開口部3的全面塞住 地被接合，並絕緣露出外裝殻1的外部的薄型電池2的外 裝罐的全面。此構造，是使用不將表面絕緣處理的外裝罐 的薄型電池2，而可以將外裝罐絕緣。但是，本發明的電 池盒，並非在外裝罐的表面將絕緣薄片7接合，而是如第 7圖的網線區塊所示，在外裝罐的表面塗抹絕緣材76，而 將外裝罐絕緣也可以。內藏此薄型電池72的電池盒，是 -16- (12) 1232605 不需要在外裝殼的開口部接合絕緣薄片。但是，將外裝罐 的表面由絕緣材7 6絕緣，並在外裝殻的開口部接合絕緣 薄片地雙層絕緣也可以。1232605 (1) 发明 Description of the invention [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a battery case, and more particularly to a battery case for fixing a thin battery to a case. [Prior Art] A battery case for a thin battery is installed in various portable electronic devices and is conveniently used. In particular, for an electronic device such as a mobile phone, an overall thinner design is the most suitable shape. Since the battery case of this shape cannot be thinned without thinning the thin battery, research on how to thin the thin battery is being carried out. At present, polymer batteries have been developed for very thin and thin batteries. The polymer battery is made of aluminum laminated film on the exterior, so it can be made very thin overall. Furthermore, thin batteries that use iron or aluminum lithium-ion secondary batteries for exterior packaging have also been developed. Currently, thin batteries such as polymer batteries and lithium-ion secondary batteries that have been developed have been designed to be considerably thinner. Furthermore, these thin batteries do not reduce the charging capacity, but research into thinner batteries is also underway. In addition, the design of the overall thinning of the plastic case battery built into the thin battery is also progressing. In particular, a battery case 'mounted on a device that is required to be thinner, such as a portable electronic device, requires a thinner design. Therefore, the charging capacity of the thin battery is not reduced, but it is important to design the battery case thinner. Therefore, there is a need for a battery case that can meet this condition. Because the present invention has a very simple structure, and does not thin the thin battery-6- (2) 1232605 itself, but was developed for the purpose of thinning the battery case, an important object of the present invention is to provide a It is possible to reduce the thickness of the entire battery case to the limit without changing the thickness of the thin battery. [Disclosure of the Invention] (Disclosure of the Invention) The battery case of the present invention includes an outer case and a thin battery that is accommodated in the outer case and is thinner than the width of the battery. The exterior case has a rectangular frame shape provided with an opening for exposing the front and back surfaces of the thin battery to the outside and covering both sides and both end surfaces of the thin battery. The thickness of the outer case is almost equal to the thickness of the thin battery, or the outer case is made thinner than the thin battery. The battery case has a thickness that can reduce the overall thickness of the battery case to the limit without changing the thickness of the thin battery. So far. This is because the battery case is provided with a thin battery case, and has an opening for exposing the front and back surfaces of the thin battery to the outside, and a rectangular frame shape covering both sides and both ends of the thin battery. The battery case of this structure has a conventional case that covers the front and back surfaces of the thin battery. Therefore, the thin battery can be stored in the outer case, and the entire thickness of the battery case can be made the same as that of the thin battery. The exterior case includes a side shell portion covering both sides of the thin battery, and an end shell portion covering both end faces of the thin battery. The side case portion is provided with a holding groove on the inner surface. Here, the holding groove is a central protruding portion for receiving both sides of the thin battery. In addition, a contactor bracket for outputting a contactor is provided at an end shell part or a side shell part of the exterior case. (3) 1232605 The outer case is a first case and a second case that are divided into a front surface and a back surface that are divided into thin batteries. The first and second cases include a side case and an end case, and the first and second cases are connected to the side case and the end case to hold the thin battery. Furthermore, the first case and the second case are fused and connected. Furthermore, the surface of the thin battery is covered with an insulating material. It is also possible to join the insulation sheet and cover the thin battery and the outer case. The joint surface of the thin battery and the outer case to which the insulating sheet is bonded is a non-planar portion having unevenness or a step, and the insulating sheet formed along the non-planar portion is the joint surface of the thin battery and the outer case. . This insulating sheet may be surface-treated along the non-planar portion to make the formed non-planar shape inconspicuous. In this insulating sheet, the edge portion is arranged between the thin battery and the outer case, and the edge portion of the insulating sheet is fixed by the thin battery and the outer case. The above battery case has: the surface of the thin battery can be insulated by an insulating sheet, and at the same time, the insulating sheet can be effectively prevented from being peeled from the edge portion, and an end case or a side case provided with an output contactor is provided. There is a storage room with a protection circuit built in, and the protection circuit is stored in the storage room and is insulated from the outside. The contactor bracket which arranges the output contactor at a fixed position has a built-in protection circuit. The contact sub-bracket is embedded in the end shell part or the side shell part of the outer shell. An insulating ring is disposed on the end surface of the convex electrode provided with the thin battery. The insulating ring has a through hole through which the convex electrode protrudes. The through hole is used for the convex electrode to be inserted to insulate the end surface. A protective element is connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the thin battery. The thin battery is a lithium-ion secondary battery or a polymer battery. -8-(4) 1232605 [Embodiment] The battery case of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The battery case shown in FIG. 1 includes an outer case 1 and a thin battery 2 mounted on the outer case 1. The thin battery 2 is a secondary battery in which the thickness of the battery is made thinner than the width of the battery. The thin battery 2 is a lithium ion secondary battery or a polymer battery. The polymer battery is a lithium polymer battery. However, the present invention does not specify that the thin battery is a lithium ion secondary battery or a polymer battery. Among thin batteries, batteries other than these batteries, such as nickel-hydrogen batteries or nickel-cadmium batteries, may be used. The outer case 1 is formed by molding an insulating material. The insulating material for forming the outer case 1 is preferably plastic. The exterior case 1 in the figure is provided with an opening 3 that exposes the front and back surfaces of the thin battery 2 to the outside, and is formed into a square frame shape to cover both sides and both end surfaces of the thin battery 2. The exterior case 丨 includes a side shell part 1 a covering both sides of the thin battery 2 and an end shell part 1 b covering both end faces of the thin battery 2. The side shell portion 1a is a cross-sectional view shown in Fig. 2 and the holding groove 4 is provided on the inner surface. The outer case 1 is a holding groove 4 in which central protrusions on both sides of the thin battery 2 are placed in the side case ia. The outer case 1 of this structure is held on both sides of the thin battery 2 by the side case portion 1a. The thin battery 2 is shown by arrows A and B as shown in FIG. As shown in the cross-sectional view in FIG. 2, the thin battery 2 having a protruding portion in the center does not need to protrude the side case portion 1 a to the front and back surfaces of the thin battery 2 by putting the protruding portion into the holding groove 4. It can prevent the deviation in the direction of the front and back. -9- (5) 1232605 thin batteries, such as lithium-ion secondary batteries or polymer batteries, have both sides curved into a shape with a predetermined radius of curvature. Both sides of the thin battery 2 having a curved surface have a chamfered portion along a corner edge and a protruding portion in the center. Therefore, the chamfered portion is a structure for guiding both side walls of the guide holding groove 4, so that the side case portion 1a does not protrude from the front and back of the thin battery 2, and at the same time, it is possible to prevent the front and back direction of the thin battery 2 from deviating. However, in the battery case of the present invention, it is not necessary to provide the holding groove 4 in the side case portion 1 a, and both sides of the thin battery may be joined by an adhesive on the inner surface of the side case portion or by an adhesive. Adhesion, or fixation by two-sided adhesive tape. The exterior case 1 is formed into a shape that does not protrude from the front and back surfaces of the thin battery 2 as shown in the cross-sectional views of FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, both of the side case portion 1 a and the end case portion 1 b. The thickness of the exterior case 1 is formed to be almost equal to the thickness of the thin battery 2. In the exterior case 1 shown in the figure, a part of the side case portion 1a and the end case portion 1b are formed on the same plane as the front and rear surfaces of the thin battery 2. A battery case in which an insulating sheet 7 such as a label is bonded to the front and back of the thin battery 2 is only equivalent to the thickness of the insulating sheet 7 to form the outer case 1 thicker than the thin battery 2. Therefore, the thin battery 2 and the outer case 1 can be formed The battery case of the present invention has the same thickness, but the outer case can be formed thinner than a thin battery, and the outer case can be formed into a shape that slightly protrudes from the surface of the thin battery. The battery case in which the outer case protrudes from the thin battery can be mounted on the electronic device by providing a recessed portion in which the protruding portion is fitted into the battery mounting portion of the electronic device. Therefore, in this specification, the thickness of the outer case is made to be almost equal to the thickness of the thin battery, and it means that the outer case slightly protrudes from the surface of the thin battery -10- (6) 1232605, for example, With the protrusion below 1 mm, the outer case is thicker than the thin battery. The battery case shown in Figs. 1 and 3 is a contactor holder 5 which is provided with an output contactor 8 in an end case 1b of the outer case 1. As shown in Figs. In the electric and battery case shown in the figure, the terminal case 1 & which has the convex electrode 10 side of the thin battery 2 covered therein has a built-in contactor holder 5 and an output contactor 8 is provided here. The convex electrode 10 and the opposite end shell portion lb cover the bottom surface of the thin battery 2. The contact holder 5 is made of an insulating material. The insulating material formed from the contact sub-bracket 5 is preferably plastic. The contact sub-bracket 5 has a shape that is almost equal to the shape of the end face of the convex electrode 10 of the thin battery 2 or is slightly smaller than the shape of the end face, and the thin battery 2 is viewed from the battery end face The shape in which the contact holder 5 does not protrude from the thin battery 2 to the outside. This contact holder 5 is provided with a pair of output contacts 8 on the side opposite to the end face of the battery. The output contactor 8 is a metal plate, and the metal plate serving as the output contactor 8 is fixed to the contactor bracket 5 or fixed to the fixed position between the contactor bracket 5 and the outer casing 1. position. The contact sub-bracket 5 is disposed inside the end case 1b of the outer case 1. The contact holder 5 arranged here is fixed in a fixed position between the inner surface of the end case 1 b and the battery end surface of the thin battery 2. The outer case 1 is an electrode window 13 opened at the end case 1b. The electrode window 13 exposes the output contact 8 fixed to the contact sub-bracket 5 to the outside of the outer case 1. Therefore, the 'electrode window 13' is a fixed position where the contact sub-bracket 5 is fixed inside the exterior case 1, and the opening is in a position where the output contact can be exposed to the outside. The contactor bracket 5 'built into the outer case 1 is fixed to the fixed position by being pressed against the thin battery 2, and the output contactor 8 is arranged at the correct fixed position. However, the contact sub-bracket may be disposed inside the side shell portion of the exterior case. The contactor holder provided here is fixed in a fixed position between the inner surface of the side case and the battery side of the thin battery. In the external case, the electrode window is opened on the side case, and the output contactor fixed to the contactor bracket is exposed to the outside of the external case. The battery case is a pair of output contacts 8 connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the thin battery 2 via a protective element 1 2. Fig. 4 is a circuit diagram showing a battery case. In this battery case, positive and negative electrodes are connected to a pair of output contacts 8 via a protective element 12. One electrode is connected to the output contact 8 via a PTC, and the other electrode is connected to the output contact 8 via a fuse. In the battery case of this circuit diagram, the output contact 8 on the positive side is connected to the positive electrode of the thin battery 2 via a fuse, and the output contact 8 on the negative side is connected to the negative electrode of the thin battery 2 via a PTC. In contrast to this circuit diagram, PTC and fuses can also be connected. The two output contacts 8 are connected to the electrodes of the thin battery 2 via a fuse or to the electrodes of the thin battery 2 via a PTC. The battery case in which the positive and negative electrodes of the thin battery 2 are connected to the protection element 12 can be safely used even if the output contacts 8 and the electrodes of the thin battery 2 are mistakenly short-circuited. This is because even if any one of the electrodes of the thin battery 2 is connected to the output contact 8, the protection element 12 operates to block the short-circuit current. The battery case insulates the surfaces of both the exterior can and the bump electrode 10. Therefore, for the normal use of -12- (8) 1232605, the short-circuit current will not conduct. However, if the insulating sheet 7 coated on the surface of the outer can of the thin battery 2 is damaged, or if a metal wire is inserted into the outer case 1 and comes into contact with the convex electrode 10, a short-circuit current will be conducted. For example, when the outer can of the thin battery 2 and the output contact 8 on the negative side are connected by metal, if the insulation of the outer can is incomplete, a short-circuit current will be conducted. When a metal wire is inserted between the outer case 1 and the thin battery 2 and the metal wire is in contact with the output contact 8 on the positive side, a short-circuit current is conducted. The battery case of the protective element 12 is connected between the two output contacts 8 and the positive and negative electrodes. If the short-circuit current is conducted, it will operate and block the short-circuit current. The protective element 12 is disposed inside the contact holder 5 as shown in the sectional view in FIG. 5. The contact holder 5 shown in the figure is a storage portion 14 provided with a protective element 12 on the opposite side of the thin battery 2, and the protective element 12 is arranged here. The batteryless case that contacts the sub-bracket 5 is provided with an accommodating portion at the end case portion 1b of the outer case 1, and a protective element 12 is incorporated therein. The battery case shown in the figure is provided with a protection element 12 as a protection circuit. However, the battery box may include a circuit that detects the current if the eddy current is turned on, a circuit that interrupts the current, a circuit that detects the battery voltage, and an overcharge or overdischarge that detects the battery to block the current. Comes as a protection circuit. The exterior case 1 in which the protection circuit is incorporated is provided with a storage chamber 14 for accommodating this, and the protection circuit is incorporated therein and insulated from the outside. The protection circuit is realized by mounting electronic components on a printed circuit board. The battery case with a built-in protection circuit has a protection circuit in the contact sub-bracket 5 in which the output contact 8 is arranged at a fixed position, and the contact sub-bracket 5 is embedded in the end shell of the outer casing 1 13-1232605 (). Part 1b is also possible. The contact sub-bracket with built-in protection circuit can also be built into the side shell part of the exterior case. As shown in FIG. 6, the thin battery 2 is provided with an insulating ring 9 on an end face of the battery where the contact sub-stand 5 is provided. Since the battery end face is disposed on the battery end face provided with the convex electrode 10 of the thin battery 2, the insulating ring 9 is also disposed on the battery end face of the convex electrode 10. The insulating ring 9 disposed here is provided with a through hole 11 for protruding the convex electrode 10, and the through hole 11 is provided with the convex electrode 10 and fixed to the battery end surface to connect the battery. End face insulation. The insulating ring 9 is fixed to the end face of the battery by bonding, or is fixed to the end face of the battery through two-sided bonding tapes, or is fixed to the end face of the battery through an adhesive layer. The width (W1) of the insulating ring 9 is smaller than the width (W2) of the battery end face. Furthermore, the length of the insulating ring 9 is preferably shorter than the length of the contact holder 5. As shown in the sectional view of Fig. 3, the insulating ring 9 is fitted into the inside of the contact sub-bracket 5 and is fixed in a fixed position. The insulating ring 9 is made of an insulating material such as plastic. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the insulating ring can be integrally formed with a fitting projection 7 1 6 that is fitted to a protective element or a contact sub-frame. In the insulating ring 79 shown in the figure, rib-shaped fitting projections 7116 are provided at both end portions. The fitting projections 7 1 6 are fitted to the protective element 7 1 2 arranged on the end face of the battery as shown in Fig. 9 and held in a fixed position. Further, the lower surface of the contact sub-bracket is formed into a shape that can be fitted into the fitting convex portion 7 1 6. The fitting convex portion 716 can be fitted into the contact sub-bracket, and the contact sub-bracket can be placed at a fixed position. However, in FIGS. 7 to 9, 710 indicates a convex -14- (10) 1232605 electrode, 711 indicates a through hole, and 715 indicates a reed. Further, the battery case 'in which the insulating rings 9, 79 are arranged on the battery end faces of the thin batteries 2, 72 is a structure that can absorb the length dimensional errors of the thin batteries 2, 72 by the insulating rings 9, 79. In particular, in the insulating rings 9, 79, use thin sheet materials that can be elastically deformed in thickness, such as non-woven fabric, insulating paper, and rubber-like elastic sheets. Absorption of dimensional errors. In addition, the inelastically deformed insulating rings 9, 79 can absorb the dimensional errors of the thin batteries 2, 72 by adjusting the number of stacked layers. However, the battery case that absorbs the dimensional errors of the thin batteries 2, 72 by the insulating rings 9, 79 does not completely put the insulating ring in contact with the inside of the sub-bracket, but forms: a part of the insulating ring, or the entire circumference The structure is fixed by the battery end face and the contact sub-bracket, and the elastic restoration force of the insulation ring is pressed against the contact sub-bracket. The battery case of this structure is irrespective of the size of the thin battery, and the contact sub-bracket can be arranged at a fixed position of the outer casing, and the output contact can be arranged at the correct position. The exterior case 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 includes a first case 1A and a second case 1B that are divided on the front and back surfaces of the thin battery 2. The first case 1A and the second case 1 B are attached to the thin battery 2 by connecting the side walls 17 to each other. The first shell 1 A and the second shell 1 B are provided with a side shell portion 1 a and an end shell portion 1 b, respectively. The first shell 1A and the second shell 1B connect the side walls 17 of the side shell portions 1 a to each other, and the end shell portions 1 b of the first shell 1A and the second shell 1B also connect the side walls 17. The first casing 1A and the second casing 1 B are simply and surely connected to each other by ultrasonically welding the facing surfaces of the side walls 17 to each other. The first case 1 A and the second case 1 B, which are welded by ultrasonic waves, are integrally formed of a thermoplastic plastic -15- (11) 1232605. As shown in the perspective view of FIG. 10 and the cross-sectional view of FIG. 2, the opposite sides of the side wall 17 welded by the ultrasonic waves are provided with a longitudinal groove on one side and a protrusion for placing the longitudinal groove on the other side, and Ultrasonic welding is performed while the ridges are placed in the longitudinal grooves, and the welding is more reliably performed without being separated. However, the first case 1A and the second case 1B may be joined and connected to each other. In the exterior case 1 shown in the figure, the side walls 17 of the first case 1A and the second case 1B are made almost the same height. In addition, in the case 1, the thin battery 2 is placed in the first case 1A, and then the side wall 17 connecting the second case 1B is in the first case 1A. In this state, the side wall 17 can be ultrasonically welded and connected. In this way, the outer casings 1 to be connected can be connected to each other without shifting the positions of the side walls 17 of the first case 1A and the second case 1B by placing the ridges in the longitudinal grooves facing each other provided on the side wall 17. Therefore, if they are connected in this state, the two side walls 17 can be connected at the correct positions. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 2 and the rear view of FIG. 10, the thin battery 2 accommodated in the first case 1A and the second case 1 B connected to each other is bonded with an insulating sheet 7 such as a label on the surface. While being covered. As shown in FIG. 1, the insulating sheet 7 is the entire surface of the outer can of the thin battery 2 that is joined by plugging the entire surface of the opening 3 of the outer case 1 and insulates the exterior of the outer case 1. With this structure, the outer can can be insulated by using the thin battery 2 without the outer can in which the surface is insulated. However, in the battery case of the present invention, instead of joining the insulating sheet 7 on the surface of the exterior can, as shown by the network cable block in FIG. 7, the surface of the exterior can is coated with an insulating material 76 to insulate the exterior can. Yes. The battery case containing this thin battery 72 is -16- (12) 1232605. It is not necessary to join an insulating sheet to the opening of the outer case. However, a double-layer insulation may be adopted in which the surface of the exterior can is insulated by an insulating material 76, and an insulation sheet is bonded to the opening of the exterior case.

The insulating sheet 7 shown in FIG. 2 is bonded in a state in which its outer peripheral portion is covered with the opening end portion of the opening portion 3 of the outer case 1. As described above, the structure in which the outer peripheral portion of the insulating sheet 7 is joined to the thin battery 2 has a feature that the outer case 1 and the thin battery 2 can be integrally connected with the insulating sheet 7 therebetween, so that these positions can be reliably prevented . Furthermore, a battery case having a non-planar portion such as unevenness or a step on the joint surface of a thin battery and an outer case to which an insulating sheet is bonded can be bonded to the joint surface by an insulating sheet formed along the non-planar portion. In the battery case shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the outer case 1 1 1 is designed to be thicker than the outer peripheral portion of the thin battery 1 1 2, and a stepped non-planar portion is formed at these boundary portions. 11 20. As shown in FIG. 13, this battery case is an insulating sheet 1 1 7 in which the battery covering portion 117A in the central portion is formed to be more recessed than the case covering portion 117B in the outer peripheral portion, and is joined to a thin battery 1 12 And the joint surface of the outer shell 1 1 1. However, as shown in FIG. 14, the battery case 1 is designed to be thinner than the outer periphery of the thin battery 2, and the battery case 147A can be formed to have a shape that projects more outward than the case cover 147B. The insulating sheet 147 is bonded to the bonding surfaces of the thin battery 142 and the outer case 141. However, in FIGS. 11 to 13, 111A indicates the first case, 111B indicates the second case, 1118 indicates the claw for taking out, and in FIG. 14, 141A indicates the first case, and 141B indicates the second case. , 147C -17- (13) 1232605 indicates the step portion, and 1420 indicates the non-planar portion. The insulating sheet 1 1 7 shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 is a battery covering portion 117A joined to an outer can of the thin battery 112 and a case covering portion 11 7B joined to the outer case 11 1. At this time, a stepped portion 117C is formed to form a non-planar shape. This step portion 117C is formed between the battery covering portion 117A and the case covering portion 1 1 7B so as to face the non-planar portion 1 1 20 of the joint surface. The insulating sheet 117 having this shape can be processed into a stepped shape by punching a flat sheet, for example. Since the battery case shown in FIG. 11 is formed with the non-planar portion 11 20 along the opening portion 113 of the exterior case 111, the step portion 11 7C of the insulating sheet 11 7 is formed along the opening portion 1 13. The insulating sheet 1 1 7 having this shape is bonded to the thin battery 112 and the outer case 111 in a state where the non-planar step portion 11 7C is disposed on the non-planar portion 11 20 of the bonding surface, and has: This feature prevents the formation of corrugations on this part and allows quick joining. In particular, the insulating sheet 11 7 shown in FIG. 12 has the stepped portion 11 7 C as an inclined surface, so that the inclined surface can be joined by absorbing the deviation of the forward and backward directions, and this portion can be used without Obvious features. Furthermore, the non-planar shapes formed along the non-planar portions 1 12 0, 14 20 may be subjected to surface treatment to make the insulating sheets 1 17 and 147 inconspicuous. Although this surface treatment is not shown in the figure, it can be represented by a plurality of parallel lines or an innumerable curve without directivity, or it can be decorated with different shades or different colors. These surface treatments use the illusion of eyes such as light and shade or color to make the non-planar shapes of the insulating sheets Π 7, 147 inconspicuous. In this way, the non-planar shape of the insulating sheets 1 1 7 and 1 47 can be made inconspicuous. -18- (14) 1232605 The cell box has the characteristics of good appearance. 15 to 19 are thin battery cells showing other embodiments. In the thin battery 152 shown in these figures, an insulating sheet 1 57 such as a label is bonded and covered on the surface. However, for the following embodiments, for the same constituent elements as the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 6 described above, the same symbols are attached to the lower digits except the upper two digits, and the description is omitted. The insulating sheet 157 to which the thin battery 152 is joined is a cap portion 152B disposed on the thin battery 152 and the battery end face can be used as an insulating member. The cap portion 152B of the thin battery 2 refers to a portion that closes the opening of the exterior can of the thin battery 152, that is, the end face of the battery having the convex electrode 1510 and its peripheral portion. The battery case shown in FIG. 17 covers the edge of the insulating sheet 1 57 bonded to the surface of the thin battery 1 52 to the cap portion 152B. That is, the insulating sheet 157 is formed so as to protrude from the end edge of the exterior can in the protruding direction of the convex electrode 151. In this way, the insulating sheet 157 extended to the cap portion 152B of the thin battery 152 can effectively insulate the convex electrode 1510 or the battery end surface. The insulating sheet 1 57 is a plastic film. However, the insulating sheet may be any sheet made of insulating material. For example, a person who plated the surface of a plastic film with metal, or a person who covered the surface of a metal foil with an insulating film such as plastic. The insulating sheet 1 57 is provided with an adhesive layer on a joint surface. The insulating sheet 1 57 can be bonded to the surface of the thin battery 152 through an adhesive layer without using an adhesive. However, the insulating sheet 157 can be bonded to the surface of the thin battery 152 through a bonding agent. In addition, the entire joint surface or -19- (15) 1232605 is made of a thermoplastic plastic film insulation sheet, which can be welded by ultrasonic welding or heat-sealed on the surface of a thin battery. As shown in Figs. 15 and 16, the battery case can cover the surface of the thin battery 152 with two insulating sheets 157. In addition, U-shaped insulating sheets can be bent and bonded to the thin battery to cover both sides of the thin battery. The battery case shown in the cross-sectional view in FIG. 18 is formed by covering one surface of both sides of the thin battery 182 by bending one insulating sheet 1 8 7 along the sheet-side U-shape of the thin battery 1 8 2. The insulating sheet 1 5 7 is placed between the thin battery 1 5 2 and the outer case 1 5 1 and is fixed by the thin battery 1 5 2 and the outer case 1 5 1. For the battery case, it is best to place the entire periphery of the insulating sheet 1 5 7 between the thin battery 1 5 2 and the outer case 1 5 1. In this battery case, the insulating sheet 1 5 7 can be prevented from peeling from the edge portion in an ideal state. In the battery case shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the entire circumference of two insulating sheets 15 7 is fixed between the thin battery 1 5 2 and the outer case 15 1. The battery case in FIG. 18 is obtained by fixing the entire periphery of one insulating sheet 187 between the thin battery 182 and the outer case 181. However, the battery case of the present invention does not necessarily require the entire periphery of the insulating sheet. Place it between the thin battery and the case. As shown in FIG. 19, a part of the edge of the insulating sheet 197 may be fixed between the thin battery 192 and the outer case 191, and a part may be bonded and fixed to the surface of the outer case 191. A battery case in which a part of the edge of the insulating sheet 197 is joined from the thin battery 192 to the surface of the outer case 191, because the outer case 1 9 1 and the thin battery 1 9 2 can be sandwiched by the insulating sheet -20- (16) 1232605 1 9 7 is physically connected, so it has the feature of reliably preventing these positional deviations. Further, the outer casings 1, 1 5 1 ′ connecting the first casings 1A, 151A and the second casings 1B, 151B are provided at the end casing portions 1 b, 151 b located on the bottom surface of the thin battery 2, 1 5 2 to be taken out Protrude with claws 18, 1518. The battery cases of Figs. 3 and 17 are provided so that the extraction claws 18 and 1518 protrude from the second cases IB and 151B. The second casings IB and 151B are securely connected to each other by methods such as welding to the first casings 1A and 1 5 1 A, so that the portions provided with the extraction claws 1 8 and 1 5 1 8 can have sufficient strength. . In particular, as shown in the sectional view in FIG. 3, a recessed portion 19 for inserting a reed 15 welded to the bottom surface of the thin battery 2 is provided on the inner surface of the end case portion 1b, and the recessed portion 19 is provided here. The structure in which the reed 15 is embedded, and the structure in which the thin battery 2 and the outer case 1 are connected by an insulating sheet 7 such as a label have a structure in which the outer case 1 and the thin battery 2 can be reliably connected and can be reliably connected Features of the outer case 1 and the thin battery 2 of the take-out claw 18. Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the specific structure of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and design changes and the like without departing from the scope of the present invention are also included in the present invention.
