In a charging method for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery which includes a positive electrode including a lithium-containing composite oxide as an active material, a negative electrode including an alloy-formable negative electrode active material, and a non-aqueous electrolyte, a voltage of the secondary battery is detected. When the detected value is smaller than a predetermined voltage x, charging is performed at a comparatively small current value B. When the detected value is equal to or greater than the predetermined voltage x and smaller than a predetermined voltage z, charging is performed at a comparatively great current value A. When the detected value is equal to or greater than the predetermined voltage z and smaller than a predetermined voltage y, charging is performed at a comparatively small current value C. When the detected value is greater than the predetermined voltage y, constant-voltage charging is performed or charging is terminated. Here, x

A positive electrode plate 5, a separator 7, and a negative electrode plate 6 are prepared. The positive electrode plate 5, the separator 7, and the negative electrode plate 6 are combined so as to form a spirally-wound electrode assembly 4. A winding end portion 9 of the electrode assembly 4 is fixed with a heat-sensitive adhesive (preferably, a heat-sensitive adhesive tape 10) whose adhesive force can be reduced by heating or cooling. The electrode assembly 4 is placed in an outer casing 1, and then the ambient temperature of the electrode assembly 4 is adjusted so that the electrode assembly 4 is loosened due to reduction in the adhesive force of the heat-sensitive adhesive. An electrolyte solution is injected into the outer casing 1.

A battery pack 1 includes a battery 10, thickness detection means 11, cycle number detection means 12, and first determination means 13. The battery 10 is an alloy-type secondary battery having an electrode assembly 20 which includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode including an alloyable active material, and an insulating layer. The thickness detection means 11 detects the thickness of the electrode assembly 20 of the battery 10. The cycle number detection means 12 detects the number of charge and discharge cycles of the battery 10. The first determination means 13 determines the replacement time of the battery 10 according to the detection results by the thickness detection means 11 and the cycle number detection means 12. This configuration allows the battery pack including the alloy-type secondary battery to estimate the replacement time of the alloy-type secondary battery almost accurately, thereby enhancing the convenience of the battery pack.

摘要:
In a charge/discharge method for a positive-electrode active material in a lithium secondary battery, the lithium secondary battery includes a positive electrode containing a positive-electrode active material capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions, a negative electrode containing a negative-electrode active material capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions, a separator located between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an electrolyte having a lithium ion conductivity; and the positive-electrode active material contains a nickel-type lithium-containing complex oxide. The positive electrode, which has been charged, is discharged until having a first potential VDp1 which is no less than 2.7 V and no more than 3.4 V on a lithium metal basis, and then the discharge is finished. Owing to this, the charge/discharge cycle life can be improved while the capacity of the lithium secondary battery is secured.
