1. A sealed battery comprising:
a pole plate group provided with a positive electrode and a negative electrode; a battery container accommodating the pole plate group; and a return type safety valve that includes a valve case, the valve case including an accommodation unit, the accommodation unit having a valve port, which is in communication with the battery container, and a valve seat extending around the valve port; a valve body accommodated in the accommodation unit; and a valve lid that seals the valve port by pushing the valve body against the valve seat, wherein: the valve seat includes an annular projection that projects toward the valve body; the projection includes a first projection region and a second projection region, which are defined by a shape of a tip of the projection and arranged in parallel in a circumferential direction of the valve port, wherein each of the first projection region and the second projection region projects toward the valve body such that the valve body is in contact with each of the first second projection region and the second projection region, and wherein the first projection region and the second projection region have different curvature radii in a cross-section of the projection taken along an axial direction of the valve body; and at least a portion of the first projection region is arranged at an outer side of the second projection region, and the pressure per unit area applied to the second projection region by the valve body is higher than the pressure per unit area applied to the first projection region by the valve body. |
