RECHARGEABLE BATTERY MODULE

摘要

A rechargeable battery module that effectively imparts a curvature using a rechargeable battery formed as a pin-shaped rechargeable battery with a very small diameter is provided. The rechargeable battery module includes a plurality of rechargeable batteries arranged in parallel, wherein each rechargeable battery comprises a case and terminals that extend from respective ends of the case along a length direction of the case. The module includes a plurality of caps, wherein each cap is coupled to an end of a rechargeable battery of the plurality of rechargeable batteries and is electrically connected to one of the terminals of the rechargeable battery. The module also includes a connector on each cap connecting adjacent caps coupled to corresponding rechargeable batteries. The adjacent caps are moveable relative to the connector such that a curvature between the corresponding rechargeable batteries changes in a direction crossing the length direction.
