Abstract

A battery has one terminal on a sealing assembly fitted to one open end of the cell casing, and the other terminal on the exterior surface of the cell casing such as to extend along the entire circular circumferential surface of a predetermined width. The other end of the cell casing opposite from the terminal is electrically insulated by affixing nonconductive films thereto. Two heat-shrinkable nonconductive labels are wound around and bonded to the cell casing, so that the terminal is formed in a recessed, ring-like form between the heat-shrinkable nonconductive labels.
