Abstract
A battery module includes a module housing provided in an angular tube shape and a cell assembly having a plurality of pouch-type battery cells stacked and arranged in one direction with broad surfaces being erect and accommodated in the module housing. The battery module includes a sensing assembly configured to electrically connect electrode leads extending from the pouch-type battery cells and cover a front portion and a rear portion of the cell assembly, respectively. Flow paths through which a cooling air flows are formed between a top plate and the cell assembly and between a bottom plate and the cell assembly, respectively, the top and bottom plates serving as upper and lower portions of the module housing. Ventilation holes for allowing the cooling air to flow into and out of the flow path are formed at a top end and a bottom end of the sensing assembly.
