Abstract
A secondary battery includes a flat wound electrode body; a battery case that accommodates the wound electrode body; and an insulating film. The wound electrode body has a first radius section opposing a top surface of the battery case, a second radius section opposing a bottom surface of the battery case, and a flat portion flanked by the first radius section and the second radius section. The insulating film is disposed between a flat surface of the flat portion of the wound electrode body and the battery case, and between a curved surface of the second radius section of the wound electrode body and the battery case. The insulating film has one groove at a portion opposing the curved surface of the second radius section and positioned between two planes resulting from extending two flat surfaces of the wound electrode body.
