Abstract

Provided are: a bonding method with which it is possible to reduce adhesive overflow and improve adhesion while reducing the number of steps for bonding and without requiring strict control of adhesive amount or load; and a bonded object. The bonding method comprises: an application step, a shaping step, or a placement step; and a setting step and a processing step in which a first base material 210 and a second base material 220 are set on a first mold 110 and a second mold 120 so that the portion where an adhesive 300 has been applied, shaped, or placed is located at a recess 114 and a recess 124, and the first base material 210 and the second base material 220 are pressed with the first mold 110 and the second mold 120. The first base material 210 deforms inside the recess 114 because of the adhesive 300, thereby forming a protrusion 212 protruding toward the recess 114. The second base 220 deforms inside the recess 124 because of the adhesive 300, thereby forming a protrusion 222 protruding toward the recess 124. The adhesive 300 fills a gap formed by the protrusion 212 and the protrusion 222.

Abstract

A sealing member is equipped with a metal lid portion and elastic shaft, supporting protrusion, and tip portions, wherein the tip portion has an engaging portion, the diameter of which is larger than that of an injection opening, and the shaft portion has a diameter smaller than that of the injection opening and a shaft length longer than the thickness of the circumferential edge portion of the injection opening. A hermetic battery manufacturing method comprises: a temporary sealing step of pressure-contacting the engaging portion to the circumferential edge portion of the injection opening; a degassing step of forming a communication path by pressing the tip portion to such an extent that the lid portion does not make contact with a battery case and the tip portion is apart from the circumferential edge portion of the injection opening; and a permanent sealing step of pressing the tip portion until the lid portion makes contact with the battery case to compress the supporting protrusion portion between the lid portion and the battery case, bonding the lid portion to the battery case, and thereby sealing the injection opening while the communication path remains formed inside the lid portion.
