Provided are a top cover assembly of a cell, a cell, and a power battery. The top cover assembly includes an insulation cover plate, a metallic support plate, a terminal assembly, and an elastic seal. The metallic support plate and the insulation cover plate are stacked in a thickness direction. The terminal assembly passes through the insulation cover plate and the metallic support plate in the thickness direction to connect the insulation cover plate and the metallic support plate. The elastic seal surrounds a peripheral outside of the metallic support plate and the insulation cover plate. The elastic seal has a positioning flange provided on an inner peripheral surface thereof and is configured to be in a sealing fit with a housing of the cell. The positioning flange is sandwiched between the metallic support plate and the insulation cover plate.

A secondary battery includes: a case member; a cover member having a through-hole and configured to close an opening of the case member; a terminal member passed through the through-hole; and a sealing member configured to close a gap between the cover member and the terminal member. The sealing member includes: an exposed end portion placed to be exposed inside the case member; and an extending portion extending from the exposed end portion toward the position of the through-hole. The cover member includes a first surface portion. The terminal member includes a second surface portion placed to face the first surface portion via a distance. The first surface portion and the second surface portion are placed to compress the extending portion. The distance between the first surface portion and the second surface portion increases toward the position of the exposed end portion.

A winding-type battery includes a battery case, a power generating element, a cap for blocking an opening of the battery case, and a gasket for insulating the battery case from the cap. The power generating element includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a separator interposed between them, and an electrolyte. The first electrode and the second electrode are wound via the separator to form an electrode group, and the first electrode is connected to the cap via a first current collecting lead, and the second electrode is connected to the battery case via a second current collecting lead. A groove is formed near the opening end of the battery case. The gasket includes: an annular seal portion interposed between a rim of the cap and the region from the groove to the end; and a tubular portion that is integrated with the seal portion, and is disposed closer to the electrode group than the seal portion is. The first current collecting lead is connected to the cap through a hollow in the tubular portion.

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a secondary battery, wherein a technical problem to be solved is to provide a secondary battery capable of maintaining an electrical insulating state between a case (can) and a cap assembly even after a gasket is melted due to short-circuiting and heat generation. To this end, the present invention provides a secondary battery comprising: a cylindrical can; an electrode assembly received, along with an electrolyte, in the cylindrical can; a cap assembly for sealing the cylindrical can; and a gasket interposed between the cylindrical can and the cap assembly, wherein the gasket further includes an insulating member having a melting temperature higher than a melting temperature of the gasket.
