Abstract
A battery pack and method of manufacturing same are provided. The battery pack can stabilize bending of a lead housed in a space defined by an external package. Leadsof a battery element are bonded to a circuit board housed in a top cover. A holderis mechanically fitted to the top covermade of resin molded material and produced by injection molding, for example. The edge faces of ribsformed on the holderserve as planes which receive the circuit boardin the top cover. The top coverand the holderfitted to each other are turned 90°, and moved toward the opening in the edge face of the cellwhile bending the leadswhich are bent along the contours of both the sidewalls and bottom surface of the holderand housed in a space defined by the external package. The circumferential surface of the top coveris bonded by heat to the inner surface of the external package.
