Abstract
A first electrode sheet includes respective active material layers on a first face of a positive electrode metal foil and an opposing second face. The first face active material layer includes a parallel section along the first face, a tapered section between a positive electrode first lateral side of the first face and a first face parallel section and inclined inward towards a current collector inner region relative to a thickness direction of the first face active material layer, and a curved section forming a curved surface between and across the first face parallel and the first face tapered sections. A separator includes a first separator covering the side of the positive electrode metal foil first face, and a second separator covering the side of the second face. A first separator part lying flush against and contacting the first face tapered section arranged along the first face tapered section.
