Hermetic sealing method for a battery fillport using sealing member

摘要

A method of manufacturing an energy storage device for a medical device that includes creating an aperture in a case. The aperture includes an inner surface. The method also includes introducing an electrolyte into the case through the aperture and moving a sealing member into the aperture. The sealing member includes an outer surface. Furthermore, the method includes sealing the aperture only with the sealing member and creating a substantially hermetic seal between the inner surface of the aperture and the outer surface of the sealing member.

1. A method of manufacturing an energy storage device for a medical device comprising:
creating an aperture in a case, the aperture including an inner surface; introducing an electrolyte into the case through the aperture; and moving a sealing member into the aperture, the sealing member including an outer surface, the sealing member being frictionally fitted within the aperture; wherein a substantially hermetic seal is formed between the sealing member and the case only by the frictional fit between the outer surface of the sealing member and the inner surface of the aperture, wherein the sealing member within the aperture is the only sealing member and only component used to seal the aperture.
