Battery with a precisely positioned construction

A battery of a stacked construction, comprising:

• a) at least one layer with anode material;
• b) for each at least one layer with anode material, at least one layer with cathode material;
• c) between each at least one layer with anode material and at least one layer with cathode material, at least one separator as a separating layer, said at least one separator being of the same size as the at least one layer with anode material;
• d) a housing with an interior space, the housing surrounding the layers;
• whereby the housing consists substantially of a material that has no, or negligible, electrical conductivity;
• e) wherein the separator protrudes in surface area beyond the at least one layer with cathode material, so that the separator forms at least one overhang beyond at least one edge of the at least one layer with cathode material and the overhang of the separator is connected to a further overhang of the separator, or an overhang of a further separator, by way of a plurality of welding points such as to fix the layer of cathode material in place in order that no lateral movement of said cathode layer is possible and such that each layer with cathode material is enclosed by two separators connected to each other by way of the plurality of welding points;
• and
• f) wherein the at least one layer with anode material positively engages with at least one wall of the housing, the at least one layer of anode material having the same area extend as the at least one separator, apart from a discharge region.
