The present invention relates to a battery pack capable of improving stability from safety issues occurring in an overcurrent state. The battery pack includes a unit cell, a bus bar electrically connected to the unit cell and short-circuited by overcurrent, and a protection part disposed in the bus bar to absorb spark occurring when the bus bar is short-circuited.

Battery pack

The present invention relates to a battery pack connected to an electronic device. The battery pack comprises: a battery module provided with a plurality of battery cells which are disposed adjacent to each other and connected to each other in series and on which first and second electrode terminals are disposed; a fuse disposed between the first electrode terminal of the uppermost battery cell and the second electrode terminal of the electronic device; and a switching device provided with a first plate disposed on a top surface of the uppermost battery cell and connected to the first electrode terminal of the uppermost battery cell, a second plate disposed above the first plate and connected to the second electrode terminal of the lowermost battery cell, and a support frame disposed between the first plate and the second plate and having fragility.

Provided is a battery pack. The battery pack includes a battery module including first and second battery cells that are disposed adjacent to each other, wherein first and second electrode terminals are disposed on each of the first and second electrode terminals, a fuse part including a first fuse connecting the second electrode terminal of the first battery cell to the first electrode terminal of the second battery cell, and a switching device including a first switch disposed outside a top surface of the first battery cell of the battery module and connected to the first fuse and a second switch disposed below the first switch and connected to the second electrode terminal of the second battery cell.

The present invention relates to a battery module, which includes one or more battery cell units, and the battery cell unit includes a battery cell, a fixing member located surrounding an outer circumference surface of the battery cell, and a heat absorbing material located between the battery cell and the fixing member, and as a result, heat generation inside the battery module is suppressed, and ignition between the series-connected battery cell units may be suppressed. Accordingly, excellent charge and discharge efficiency, an excellent cycle property and a lifespan property of the battery may be exhibited without concern for explosion or ignition of the battery module.
