Method of producing secondary battery module

Abstract

A secondary battery module showing excellent packing efficiency which makes it possible to connect a secondary battery and a charge/discharge device with a stably low resistance without any unnecessary deformation of the secondary battery or an electrode terminal is disclosed. The secondary battery module includes a plurality of stack units, each of the stack units including: at least one non-conductive plate member; at least one conductive member fixed to the plate member; a secondary battery stacked on the plate member; and at least one electrode terminal sticking out of a side face of the secondary battery, and held by the conductive member.

         10 . A method of producing a secondary battery module, the method comprising:
 preparing a non-conductive plate member, a conductive member, and a secondary battery, out of the secondary battery an electrode terminal sticking;   fixing the conductive member to the plate member;   stacking the secondary battery on the plate member; and   holding, by the conductive member, the electrode terminal of the secondary battery.   
     
     
         11 . The method according to  claim 10 , wherein
 a conductive member having a gap that is wider than a thickness of the electrode terminal is prepared as the conductive member, and   after the electrode terminal is arranged in the gap of the conductive member, a width of the gap is narrowed, to hold the electrode terminal by the conductive member.   
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 10 , wherein after the electrode terminal is held by the conductive member, the electrode terminal is slid. 
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 10 , wherein
 a conductive member having a gap is prepared as the conductive member, a width of the gap being narrower than a thickness of the electrode terminal, and   the electrode terminal is inserted into the gap of the conductive member, to hold the electrode terminal by the conductive member.
