Patent ID: 8067112

Claim:
A method for fabricating a stacked lithium secondary battery, comprising: a) adhering a plurality of anode plates to a portion of one surface of a separator onto which the anode plates are neighboring one another, wherein the anode plates respectively comprise a current collector having a coating of electroactive anode material, each of the plurality of anode plates having a separate protrusion that forms a tap; b) adhering a plurality of cathode plates to a portion of the other surface of the separator onto which the cathode plates are neighboring one another, wherein the cathode plates respectively comprise a current collector having a coating of electroactive cathode materials, each of the plurality of cathode plates having a separate protrusion that forms a tap; c) covering either the cathode or anode plates with the separator by folding a portion to which no electrode plate is adhered; d) successively folding the separator in a fixed one-direction along folding lines formed between the electrode plates to obtain a stacked body, such that the taps of anode plates overlap one another and the taps of the cathode plates overlap one another; and e) housing the obtained stacked body within a pouch, followed by injection of an electrolyte solution and packaging.
