    Abstract: The battery unit includes a storage configured to store (A1) and (A2) below, and a battery state estimator. (A1) : a table map OCV vs. SOC characteristics.
    (A2) : HF vs. SOC initial characteristics. The battery state estimator estimates, based on (A1), a start SOC corresponding to a detected OCV at a start of charge; measures HF vs. SOC present characteristics and detects a peak of differential characteristics of the measured HF vs. SOC present characteristics during the charge; determines a SOC at the detected peak as a SOC(HF) based on (A2); calculates a charge capacity from the start of the charge to detection of SOC the peak; calculates a SOC(OCV) based on the calculated charge capacity and the start SOC; and in a case where the SOC(OCV) deviates with respect to the SOC(HF) by an amount of deviation equal to or greater than a predetermined value, corrects (A1).

    Abstract: To prevent the breakage of a bonding portion when current collector tabs are converged and bonded, and thereby maintain a current path. A plurality of electrode current collectors each including a metal porous body, a plurality of tabs each extending from an end of the metal porous body of each of the electrode current collectors, and a connecting tab lead that electrically connects the tabs, are included. The connecting tab lead is cross-bonded with each of the tabs to form a first compression bonding portion, and is further folded from a first of the tabs to a second of the tabs, for example, the connecting tab lead is arranged in a bellows shape. At a tab convergence location where the first compression bonding portions are stacked, the tabs are converged by forming a second compression bonding portion by ultrasonic waves or other means.

    Abstract: A secondary battery electrode includes: a current collector made of a porous metal material; and an electrode material mixture with which the current collector is filled. The current collector includes a material mixture-filled segment that is filled with the electrode material mixture, and a material mixture-unfilled segment that is unfilled with the electrode material mixture. The material mixture-unfilled segment includes a current-collecting tab which is thinner than the material mixture-filled segment and in which the porous metal material is present at a higher density than in the material mixture-filled segment, and a tab convergence portion via which the material mixture-filled segment is coupled to the current-collecting tab. The tab convergence portion is provided with at least one rib extending from a side adjacent to the material mixture-filled segment toward the current-collecting tab.
