A method for manufacturing a circular electrode apparatus of a battery for resistance stability improvement comprises the following procedures. First, an electrode structure of a battery including an upper electrode plate, an over-current protection device and lower electrode plate is provided, wherein the over-current protection device is a lamination constituted of an upper metal foil, a current-sensitive layer and a lower metal foil. Secondly, the electrode structure is treated by high-speed impact, vibration, hot-cold impact, acid pickling, water pickling or sand blasting to become the electrode apparatus of the present invention whereby the mean value of the resistance of the electrode apparatuses is below 0.05 ohm, and the deviation of the resistances of the electrode apparatuses is below 0.005 ohm at 25&#xb0; C.

Manufacturing method for electrode apparatus of battery

The present invention discloses a manufacturing method of an over-current protection device, characterized in that the PTC plaque is conducted by punching under frozen state to form the over-current protection devices so as to reduce the heating and temperature rising in the PTC plaque due to punching and temperature difference between the metal foil and the conductive composite material. Relatively, the deformation and stress of the over-current protection device caused by punching will also be reduced. Therefore, there is no need for additional process to increase the temperature sensitivity and electrical property stability of the over-current protection device.

Manufacturing method of over-current protection devices

The present invention reveals an over-current protection apparatus comprising a first electrode plate, a second electrode plate, a third electrode plate, a conductive element and a high resistance material layer, where the high resistance material layer may contact the first electrode plate to form a conducting path, the conductive element is connected to the first electrode plate and the second electrode, the thermally expanded conductive element can cut off current, the high resistance material layer is connected to the third electrode plate and the second electrode plate, and the thermal expansion coefficient of the high resistance layer is less than that of the conductive element. By virtue of the thermal expansion of the conductive element due to an over-current, the first electrode plate is departed from the third electrode plate so as to enforce the current flows through the high resistance material layer for current reduction. In addition, the heat generated from the high resistance material layer can be transferred to the conductive element to keep the conductive element expanded to cut off current.
