1. A battery pack comprising two or more battery modules connected to each other, external input and output terminals being formed at one side of each of the battery modules, each of the battery modules comprising a plurality of unit cells electrically connected to each other while being stacked, wherein
the two or more battery modules are connected in series or in parallel to each other via a connection member such that one of the battery modules is connected to an adjacent one of the battery modules, the connection member is configured to have a structure in which different kinds of metals having different melting points are coupled to each other, the connection member comprises a first connection part and a second connection part coupled to the external input and output terminals of the battery modules to be electrically connected to each other, and a sectional area of a coupling region between the first connection part and the second connection part is smaller than a sectional area of the first connection part and a sectional area of the second connection part.
