SEALING ASSEMBLY FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL

摘要

In an electrochemical cell a container houses a cathode, an anode, a separator between the cathode and the anode, a negative current collector and a sealing assembly for sealing a terminal end of the separator extending outward from between the cathode and the anode. The sealing assembly seals the terminal end of the separator between a first sealing member in sealing relationship with the first face of the separator terminal end and a second sealing member in sealing relationship with the second face of the separator terminal end. In another embodiment, the sealing assembly seals the terminal end of the separator between the sealing assembly in sealing relationship with the first face of the separator terminal end and at least one of the cathode, the anode and the container in sealing relationship with the second face of the separator terminal end.
