RECHARGEABLE BATTERY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

According to the present invention, a rechargeable battery comprises: a first electrode assembly and a second electrode assembly, each of the first and second electrode assemblies including a first electrode and a second electrode, each of the first and second electrodes made of an electrode plate and an electrode uncoated region; a case accommodating the first and second electrode assemblies and having an opening; a cap assembly coupled by the opening to seal the case; a first current collecting member electrically connecting the first electrode of the first electrode assembly and the first electrode of the second electrode assembly; and a second current collecting member electrically connecting the second electrode of the first electrode assembly and the second electrode of the second electrode assembly. The first current collecting member or the second current collecting member is made of a first current collecting plate, having one surface touching the electrode uncoated region and a second current collecting plate coupled to a connecting terminal. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a rechargeable battery preventing an electrode assembly or an insulation body from being damaged.
