An electric cell module is provided, which enables operations of connecting terminals in one direction and which is, as a whole, highly rigid and has excellent resistance to breakage. A pair of rod bodies A and B are arranged parallel to each other to be oriented in opposite polarities. Each rod body contains a plurality of electric cells connected in series through cell connector portions . An electrical connecting structure is formed on one end face of each rod body. The structure connects the rod bodies electrically to each other. A coupling jig is incorporated to surround at least one juxtaposed pair of cell connector portions present at the same longitudinal position in the rod bodies.
