WINDING ASSEMBLY FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS, METHODS OF MAKING THE WINDING ASSEMBLY, AND THE ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL

摘要

A winding assembly including positive and negative electrodes and a separator sheet wound in an overlying relationship such that the separator sheet is positioned between the positive and negative electrodes, and such that an exposed edge of the positive electrode is spaced longitudinally from an unexposed edge of the negative electrode at one end, and such that an exposed edge region of the negative electrode is spaced longitudinally from an unexposed edge of the positive electrode at an opposite end, and wherein a portion of the positive electrode proximate to the exposed edge of the positive electrode comprises a first plurality of apertures and a portion of the negative electrode proximate to the exposed edge of the negative electrode comprises a second plurality apertures.
