Abstract
The present invention relates to a pouch-shaped battery cell having an electrode assembly in a pouch-shaped battery case, the electrode assembly including positive electrodes and negative electrodes, each of the positive electrodes and the negative electrodes having a structure in which the length of the electrode in a width direction is less than the length of the electrode in a length direction, each of the positive electrodes and the negative electrodes has an uncoated portion extending parallel to outer peripheries of the electrode in the overall width direction or outer peripheries of the electrode in the overall length direction and a coated portion, which is coated with an electrode mixture, formed at the remaining portion of the electrode excluding the uncoated portion, and a stepped structure is formed at the part of the pouch-shaped battery case corresponding to the uncoated portion so as to be recessed inwards.
