DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] Reference to an embodiment herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] Example 1: A low self-discharge green battery, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, it includes a zinc cylinder 1, a first insulating sheet 3, a positive electrode column 4, a second insulating sheet 5, a negative electrode sheet 6 and a graphite rod 7. The first insulating sheet 3 is installed at the upper end of the zinc cylinder 1 by welding, and the positive electrode column 4 is installed on the top of the first insulating sheet 3 by welding. The positive electrode column 4 penetrates the first insulating sheet 3. The negative electrode sheet 6 is embedded at the lower end of the zinc cylinder 1. The graphite rod 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the negative electrode sheet 6. The graphite rod 7 is located inside the zinc cylinder 1. The second insulating sheet 5 is installed on the top of the negative electrode sheet 6 by welding. The graphite rod 7 penetrates the second insulating sheet 5. It also includes a special positive electrode sheet 2. The special positive electrode sheet 2 is installed on the lower part of the first insulating sheet 3 by welding. The special positive electrode sheet 2 is located inside the zinc cylinder 1. The special positive electrode sheet 2 is fixedly connected to the positive electrode column 4. The special positive electrode sheet 2 is made of pure cobalt-coated nickel hydroxide to reduce the probability of self-discharge caused by ion leakage.

[0022] When the battery is in use, the electric ions in the zinc cylinder 1 are conducted to the positive electrode column 4 through the special positive electrode sheet 2, and the positive electrode column 4 outputs the electric energy. After passing through the electrical appliance, the electric energy is received by the negative electrode sheet 6, and the ions enter the electrolyte in the zinc cylinder 1 through the graphite rod 7 to complete the output of electric energy. When the battery is not in use, the special positive electrode sheet 2 made of pure cobalt-coated nickel hydroxide can reduce the electron leakage rate and reduce the self-discharge of the battery.

[0023] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a separation tube 8 fixedly connected to the bottom of the special positive electrode sheet 2, and a barrier plate 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the separation tube 8. The separation tube 8 and the barrier plate 9 are made of insulating materials to prevent ions from being conducted to the positive electrode part.

[0024] When the ions return from the negative electrode sheet 6 through the graphite rod 7 and enter the zinc cylinder 1, the ions are stored in the separation cylinder 8, separating the normal ions from the lost ions, preventing the negative electrode's electricity from returning to the positive electrode and self-discharging. The barrier plate 9 can prevent the lost ions from directly contacting the special positive electrode sheet 2.

[0025] See also Figure 3 As shown, an energy focusing ring 10 is installed on the top of the second insulating sheet 5 by welding, the graphite rod 7 penetrates and contacts the energy focusing ring 10, a diaphragm 11 is provided on the inner wall of the zinc cylinder 1 to prevent electron leakage, and a shell 12 is provided on the outside of the zinc cylinder 1.

[0026] The energy-gathering ring 10 can appropriately prevent the battery from self-discharging and extend the battery life; the diaphragm 11 can prevent electrons from leaking to the outside through the zinc cylinder 1 and prevent the battery from self-discharging; the shell 12 is used to protect the zinc cylinder 1 and prevent the zinc cylinder 1 from being damaged and causing the electrolyte to be exposed.
