A manganese dry battery with excellent leak-proof property is provided, in
which electrolyte leakage does not occur even if the size of a positive
electrode material mixture is increased to meet a demand for improvement
in discharge property. In a sealing part, a first circular projection, a
second circular projection and a third circular projection are arranged
at the bottom in sequence from the center to the outside, and a positive
electrode carbon rod supporting part is provided in an innermost
periphery portion to have an interval from the first circular projection.
A groove between the first projection and the carbon rod is formed to
have a substantially rectangular vertical section, kraft board is pressed
by flat bottom surfaces of the first and second projections and an
opening of the zinc can is fitted between the second and third
projections.
