A metal plate and an electrode in a polymer lithium ion secondary battery
or the like are welded certainly, and it is accomplished to further
improve the reliability and the durability thereof. Each of an upper
metal plate (7a) and a lower metal plate (9a) on the positive
pole/terminal is welded to a pole/terminal of positive electrode (3) so
that the pole/terminal of positive electrode (3) may be sandwiched from
each of the upper and lower sides. Moreover, each of an upper metal plate
(7b) and a lower metal plate (9b) on the negative pole/terminal is welded
to a pole/terminal of negative electrode (5) so that the pole/terminal of
negative electrode (5) may be sandwiched from each of the upper and lower
sides. This eliminates occurrence of poor welding in the electric
resistance welding.
