2. Description of the Related Art Conventional battery cases, for example, positive electrode cases for alkaline dry batteries, are generally formed into a cylindrical shape by subjecting a rolled steel plate to deep drawing. A conventional alkaline dry battery will be described with reference to FIG. Formed by deep drawing, the side wall and bottom have the same thickness (about 0.25 mm)
In the positive electrode case 1 formed in the above, a plurality of positive electrode mixture 2 made of cylindrical manganese dioxide and graphite are stacked, and a core rod is inserted into the hollow portion of the positive electrode mixture 2.
The positive electrode mixture 2 is pressed against the inner wall of the positive electrode case 1 from above. A separator 3 for separating the positive electrode and the negative electrode is inserted into the hollow portion of the positive electrode mixture 2, and the negative electrode gel-like substance 4 composed of caustic potash, a viscous substance and zinc powder is injected into the inside thereof to provide an elastic gasket sealing body. 5, the assembly gasket sealing body in which a component in which the negative electrode current collector 6 and the negative electrode terminal bottom plate 7 are integrated is press-fitted in the center of 5, is placed on the positive electrode case 1, and the opening of the positive electrode case 1 is assembled gasket. A method is adopted in which the outer label is wound so as to strongly adhere to the fitting portion of the sealing body, and the outer label 8 is wrapped around the battery outer peripheral portion. (For example, JP-A-3-40371)

However, as shown in FIG.
In the positive electrode case of the conventional structure shown in (a) and (b), the positive electrode mixture 2 is pressurized and pressure-bonded to the positive electrode case 1 with the core rod inserted in the central portion of the positive electrode mixture 2. At this time, stress remains on the side wall and the peripheral edge of the bottom of the positive electrode case, and the mechanical strength is reduced. Therefore, in a device that uses multiple alkaline dry batteries, when the discharged alkaline dry batteries are mixed into the device, the discharged alkaline dry batteries become over-discharged, causing gas generation, and
Due to the expansion of the positive electrode mixture, there has been a drawback that cracking occurs in the side wall portion and the peripheral edge portion of the bottom portion where mechanical strength is weak and liquid leakage occurs.

Regarding the examples and comparative examples according to the present invention, L
In a circuit in which four R6 are connected in series, one of the batteries is previously discharged at 10 Ω for 2000 minutes continuously, and a 125 Ω resistor is connected to the circuit to perform discharge, which is caused by cracking of the positive electrode case. The number of leaking batteries of the alkaline electrolyte was examined (the number of test sets: 100 sets each). The product of the present invention did not leak the alkaline electrolyte due to cracking of the positive electrode case out of 100 sets even after continuously discharged for one week, whereas the alkaline dry battery using the conventional positive electrode case, Cracking occurred in the positive electrode case in 8 out of 100 sets, resulting in leakage of the alkaline electrolyte.

Although the shape shown in (b) of FIG. 1 is used, it can be obtained by another method such as a shape as shown in (c) of FIG. However, increasing the thickness of the entire positive electrode case is not a good idea because it reduces the battery internal volume and battery life.
