Abstract
A battery pack includes: a battery cell including an electrode assembly connected to an electrode tab, and first and second casings facing each other and coupled to each other to form an accommodation portion accommodating the electrode assembly and to form a terrace portion extending across the electrode tab to seal the accommodation portion, the terrace portion including a first surface on the first casing and a second surface on the second casing; a protective circuit module electrically connected to the battery cell and on the first surface of the terrace portion; and a current breaking device electrically connected to the protective circuit module to form a charge-discharge path of the battery cell and on the second surface of the terrace portion. The current breaking device limits charge-discharge current in response to the battery cell's abnormal state such as overheating, and does not spatially interfere with the protective circuit module.
