A battery case includes a case-penetrating hole. An external terminal includes a member-engaging hole and is stacked on an outside of the battery case so that the member-engaging hole and the case-penetrating hole align with each other. An internal terminal includes a shaft portion and a fastening portion. The shaft portion is inserted through the case-penetrating hole and the member-engaging hole from an interior of the battery. The fastening portion is fastened to a circumferential periphery of the member-engaging hole by crushing a tip end of the shaft portion. The internal terminal is stacked on an inside of the battery case. The fastening portion and the external terminal include a welded portion welded along a weld line set across a periphery of the fastening portion. The welded portion has a length K along the weld line and a width K along a direction perpendicular to the weld line, and the length K is at least 1.5 times longer than the width K
