The secondary battery of claim 1, further comprising at least one channel adapted to facilitate injection of an electrolytic solution in the neighborhood of the electrolytic solution inlet. 3. The secondary battery of claim 2, wherein one end of the channel is integrated with and connected to the electrolytic solution inlet. 4. The secondary battery of claim 3, wherein the channel is linearly shaped and arranged radially in the neighborhood of the electrolytic solution inlet. 5. The secondary battery of claim 2, wherein the channel has a depth in a range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. 6. The secondary battery of claim 1, wherein the electrolytic solution inlet has a sloping cross-section. 7. The secondary battery of claim 1, wherein the electrolytic solution inlet has a stepped portion recessed to a predetermined depth in the neighborhood of the electrolytic solution inlet. 8. The secondary battery of claim 7, wherein the stepped portion has a depth in a range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. 9. The secondary battery of claim 1, wherein the first electrode tab is electrically connected to a terminal pin which is physically connected to the cap plate and electrically insulated from the cap plate, and the second electrode tab is welded to the cap plate at a position between the terminal pin and the electrolytic solution inlet. 10. The secondary battery of claim 1, with the first electrode tab being electrically connected to a terminal pin which is physically connected to the cap plate and electrically insulated from the cap plate, the second electrode tab being welded to the cap plate at a first position and the terminal pin being disposed between the electrolytic solution inlet and the first position. 11. The secondary battery of claim 10, further comprising a safety vent arranged at a second position, the second electrode tab being disposed between the terminal pin and the second position, and the safety vent being adapted to rupture when the internal pressure of the sealed can increases to a level greater than a predetermined allowed level. 12. A secondary battery, comprising: an electrode unit having a first electrode plate, a second electrode plate, a separator interposed therebetween, and first and second electrode tabs respectively extending from the first and second electrode plates; a can adapted to encase the electrode unit and an electrolytic solution; a cap plate adapted to seal the can, a terminal pin electrically connected to the first electrode tab and physically connected to and electrically insulated from the cap plate; an insulating plate provided on a second major surface of the cap plate and extending in a direction along which the cap plate extends and arranged to insulate the terminal pin from the cap plate; and the second electrode tab being welded to the cap plate at a position, the terminal pin being disposed between an electrolytic solution inlet and the second electrode tab, said care plate being perforated by the electrolytic solution inlet having a smaller opening of the electrolytic solution inlet located on a first major surface of the cap plate facing an exterior of the secondary battery and through a larger opening of the electrolytic solution inlet on the second major surface of the cap plate. 13. The secondary battery of claim 12, with the electrolytic solution inlet being arranged to overlap the insulating plate, and the injection hole disposed corresponding to the electrolytic solution inlet arranged in the insulating plate. 14. The secondary battery of claim 13, further comprising at least one channel adapted to facilitate injection of an electrolytic solution in the neighborhood of the injection hole. 15.
