The present invention relates to an embedded frame for pouch-type secondary batteries and a secondary battery having the embedded frame. The embedded frame is provided in a pouch casing for a secondary battery so as to maintain the external shape of the pouch casing and additionally protect an electrode assembly from an external shock. The embedded frame has a rectangular shape and makes close contact with an inner surface of the pouch casing. The electrode assembly is housed in the embedded frame. A plurality of pores is formed in the embedded frame.

Embedded frame for pouch-type secondary battery and secondary battery having embedded frame

A battery comprises: a battery cell; and tabs configured as one pair of an anode tab and a cathode tab and included in the battery cell. At least one of the anode tab and the cathode tab is configured in such a way that a welding region exposed outside the battery cell and a reaction region positioned in the battery cell are formed of different metals and are joined to each other.

Battery

Provided is a secondary battery including a battery cell having a cathode tab and an anode tab formed at one side thereof; a pouch formed so as to be enclose and seal the battery cell so that the cathode tab and the anode tab of the battery cell are protruded to the outside; and a shape memory alloy provided in the pouch and having a bent part bent in a specific shape and penetrating through and opening the pouch while being unbent at the time of an increase in a temperature of the battery cell, to discharge gas generated in the pouch when the gas is generated in the pouch due to an increase in a temperature caused by overcharging, overdischarging, and the like, to expand the pouch, thereby making it possible to prevent ignition and explosion.

Secondary battery

This invention relates to a lithium secondary battery, the tab shape of which is improved, thus increasing the safety and improving the electrical properties thereof. The lithium secondary battery includes an electrode group composed of a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, a first electrode tab connected to the first electrode, and a second electrode tab connected to the second electrode. The first electrode tab includes a first portion connected to the first electrode and a second portion, which is not the first portion, the width of the first portion being less than the width of the second portion.
