Abstract
A power storage device includes a first electrode including a first active material layer formed on a first surface, a second electrode including a second active material layer formed on a first surface, a separator, and a spacer. The first active material layer has a longitudinal side of a first length. The second area has a second length between the spacer and the first active material layer. A ratio of the second length to the first length is 0.02 or less. At least one of corners of the first active material layer has a shape chamfered in an arc shape. A radius of curvature at a portion of the corner having a maximum curvature is 5 mm or more.
Claims5
A power storage device comprising:
- a first electrode including a first active material layer formed on a first surface of a first current collector;
- a second electrode including a second active material layer formed on a first surface of a second current collector, the second active material layer being disposed so as to face the first active material layer of the first electrode;
- a separator interposed between the first active material layer and the second active material layer;
- and
- a spacer disposed between the first surface of the first current collector and the first surface of the second current collector,
- the spacer being disposed so as to enclose the first active material layer and the second active material layer, the spacer adhering to the first surface of the first current collector and the first surface of the second current collector to form a sealed space between the first electrode and the second electrode, and
- the first active material layer having a rectangular shape in a plan view as viewed in a stacking direction in which the first electrode and the second electrode are stacked, wherein
- the first surface of the first current collector has an area to which the spacer does not adhere, the area including first area where the first active material layer is formed and a second area where the first active material layer is not formed,
- the first active material layer has a longitudinal side of a first length in the plan view,
- the second area has a second length between the spacer and the first active material layer in a direction parallel to the longitudinal side of the first active material layer,
- a ratio of the second length (L2) to the first length (L1) is 0.02 or less,
- at least one of corners of the first active material layer has a shape chamfered in an arc shape, and
- a radius of curvature at a portion of the corner having a maximum curvature is 5 mm or more.
