Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A pouch-type secondary battery includes an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate, a separator, and a second electrode plate; and a pouch film in which the electrode assembly is accommodated, wherein the pouch film includes a first side sealing portion from which a negative electrode lead connected to the electrode assembly protrudes, a second side sealing portion from which a positive electrode lead connected to the electrode assembly protrudes, and an upper sealing portion having both end portions connected to the first and second side sealing portions, and the pouch film includes a folded portion disposed on an end of the first side sealing portion and an end of the second side sealing portion, and folded toward a bottom portion of the pouch film, wherein the folded portion is folded in one direction.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A pouch-type secondary battery comprising: an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate, a second electrode plate, and a separator disposed between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate; and a pouch film structured to accommodate the electrode assembly and including a first side sealing portion, a second side sealing portion, an upper sealing portion including end portions connected to the first and second side sealing portions, and a folded portion disposed on an end of the first side sealing portion and an end of the second side sealing portion, wherein a negative electrode lead connected to the electrode assembly protrudes from the first side sealing portion, and a positive electrode lead connected to the electrode assembly protrudes from the second side sealing portion, and wherein the folded portion is folded in one direction toward a bottom portion of the pouch film, wherein the folded portion comprises a pressed portion including an end having a folded shape and connected to the bottom portion of the pouch film. 2. The pouch-type secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the upper sealing portion, the first side sealing portion and the second side sealing portion of the pouch film are located on three sides of the pouch film. 3. The pouch-type secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the folded portion includes a first portion to be folded, wherein the first portion has a straight shape. 4. The pouch-type secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the pouch film is folded to overlap on both sides based on one side surface of the electrode assembly, and a portion of the pouch film in contact with the one side surface of the electrode assembly forms the bottom portion of the pouch film. 5. The pouch-type secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the folded portion includes a first portion to be folded, wherein the first portion is disposed in a central portion of the bottom portion of the pouch film.
