Abstract

The present invention relates to a sealed type battery provided with a safety valve and a method of manufacturing the same, the sealed type battery of the present invention has a mouth-sealing plate, provided with the safety valve, serving as a terminal of one polarity, being arranged through an insulating member in a hole of a metallic cover closing an opened portion of an exterior can serving as a terminal of the other polarity, and an extension of a hole edge of the metallic cover being cramped to the insulating member to fix said mouth-sealing plate, whereby the cramping diameter can be reduced in comparison with that of the conventional battery, and as a result, the high hermeticity can be given to the battery and the electrolyte can be completely prevented from leaking.
