Non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery

A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising:

• a wound electrode body in which a first separator, a negative electrode body, a second separator, and a positive electrode body are stacked and wound,
• wherein the wound electrode body has
• two R portions which are both end portions in a longitudinal direction orthogonal to a winding axis, wherein outer surfaces of the wound electrode body are formed of curved surfaces, and
• a flat portion which is a central portion disposed between the two R portions and has two flat surfaces,
• wherein a winding starting end of the positive electrode body, a winding starting end of the negative electrode body, a winding starting end of the first separator, a winding starting end of the second separator and a winding ending end of the negative electrode body are positioned in the flat portion, and
• in a cross section orthogonal to the winding axis, the wound electrode body comprises
• a first bending point which represents a primary bending point from the winding starting ends of the first separator and the second separator, and
• a second bending point which represents a secondary bending point from the winding starting ends of the first separator and the second separator, and wherein
• the winding starting end of the negative electrode body is sandwiched by the second separator which is folded back at the second bending point, and is wound together with the second separator,
• the winding starting end of the positive electrode body is disposed between an outer peripheral side of the second separator which is folded back at the second bending point and the inner peripheral side of the first separator which is folded back at the second bending point, and is wound on the outer peripheral side of the second separator,
• a distance from a bending end straight line, which is a straight line which passes through the second bending point and is orthogonal to the two flat surfaces, to the winding starting end of the negative electrode body in a reference direction is denoted by A,
• a distance from the bending end straight line to the winding starting end of the positive electrode body in the reference direction in the cross section is denoted by B, and
• a distance from the bending end straight line to the winding ending end of the negative electrode body in the reference direction in the cross section is denoted by X,
• A, B, and X satisfy the following relationship:
• A<B<X.
