Abstract
A non-aqueous liquid electrolyte secondary cell capable of preventing bursting or explosion thereof even when a current breaking device or a relief valve for pressure release fails in operation thereof due to any trouble or failure thereof. The cell includes a wound-up body formed by laminatedly spirally winding up a positive electrode and a negative electrode together while interposing a separator therebetween. The wound-up body thus formed is received in a cell can. The negative electrode is constructed by forming a negative active material layer containing amorphous carbon on each of both surfaces of a negative collector. The positive electrode is constructed by forming a positive active material layer containing LixCoO.sub.2 on each of both surfaces of a positive collector. The negative electrode is electrically connected to the cell can through a negative electrode lead. The positive electrode is electrically connected to the cell lid through a positive electrode lead joined to a connection plate of the cell lid by welding.
