Abstract
The present invention relates to an electrode assembly and a pouch type lithium rechargeable battery having the same, which can minimize the total volume of a battery while maximizing a distance between electrode tabs. Insulation members cover portions of electrode tabs to prevent contact of an electrode tab with another electrode tab and electrode plate with opposite polarity. The shape of the insulation member is changed to effectively increase the distance between electrode tabs and to reduce overall thickness or width of the battery.
