摘要:
A collector to terminal conductive element, or tab, for use with multiple-contact current collectors in the manufacture and use of energy storage cells. The collector to terminal conductive element of the present invention provides for lower internal resistance and higher conductivity than previous positive devices, thereby achieving higher current handling capacity and lower discharge temperatures. The conductive element of the present invention is manufactured separately from the collector itself, to avoid problems with alignment during the process of connecting the collector to the energy storage device and to facilitate the tab's connection to the cell terminal. In one preferred embodiment, the terminal to collector conductive element is useful for creating current paths between the anode of a coiled cell energy storage device and a battery terminal.
