Abstract
A cylindrical secondary battery includes an electrode assembly provided with an electrode tab; a battery can configured to accommodate the electrode assembly; a terminal configured to pass through the battery can and insulated from the battery can; and a collector configured to electrically connect the electrode tab to the terminal. The collector may include an edge part; a terminal coupling part disposed inside the edge part and coupled to the terminal; a bridge configured to connect the edge part to the terminal coupling part; and a tab coupling part extending inward from the edge part, spaced apart from the bridge and the terminal coupling part, and coupled to the electrode tab. An inner end of the tab coupling part may have a width that gradually decreases as it approaches the terminal coupling part.
