Claim:
1. A button cell comprising: a cylindrical housing closed in a liquid-tight manner and having a planar housing bottom side, a planar housing top side parallel thereto and a circumferential lateral housing casing arranged therebetween, and an assembly of at least one band-shaped positive electrode, at least one band-shaped negative electrode and at least one band-shaped separator within the housing, wherein the housing consists of a positive-polarity and a negative-polarity metallic housing half separated from one another by an electrically insulating seal, the at least one positive electrode comprises a first band-shaped current collector covered by electrochemical active material and electrically connected to the positive-polarity housing half via a first metallic current output conductor, the at least one negative electrode comprises a second band-shaped current collector covered by electrochemical active material and electrically connected to the negative-polarity housing half via a second metallic current output conductor, the assembly is a spiral-shaped winding having two flat end sides and a circumferential outer side, and the positive-polarity housing half has a cup-shaped form and a cup base, a circumferential cup wall, a cup edge with a terminal cutting edge and a cup opening defined by the cup edge, the winding is arranged in the cup-shaped, positive-polarity housing half such that one of the flat end sides points in the direction of the cup base, the circumferential outer side thereof bears against the circumferential cup wall and the outer side together with the cup wall forms a clamping zone in which the first current output conductor is clamped, the positive-polarity housing half consists of aluminum or of an aluminum alloy and the negative-polarity housing half consists of sheet steel or sheet iron, the positive-polarity housing half is arranged with the cup edge thereof to the fore into the cup-shaped negative-polarity housing half made of sheet steel or sheet iron, the first current output conductor consists of aluminum or an aluminum alloy and is a terminal partial region of the first current collector not covered by electrochemical active material, and there is a direct electrical contact between the first current output conductor and the circumferential cup wall in the clamping zone.
