Provided is a pouch type case, which includes a pouch type body part including an inner space for accommodating an electrode assembly, and an injection part extending from the body part to guide electrolyte into the inner space. The injection part is corrugated in a zigzag shape.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A pouch type case comprising: a pouch type body part including an inner space accommodating an electrode assembly; and an injection part extending from the body part to guide electrolyte into the inner space, wherein the injection part is corrugated in a zigzag shape, and wherein inner and outer surfaces of the injection part are corrugated so that the injection part is compressible along an axial direction of the injection part. 2. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein the injection part is corrugated in a zigzag shape in an electrolyte injection direction of the electrolyte. 3. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein the injection part is removed from the body part after the electrode assembly is impregnated with the electrolyte. 4. The pouch type case of claim 3 , wherein a portion of the body part from which the injection part is removed is sealed to form a sealing surface. 5. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein the body part includes a non-corrugation sealing part between the body part and the injection part. 6. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein the injection part is corrugated and integrally formed with the body part when a border of the body part is sealed. 7. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein a sealing surface is formed on three continuous surfaces of four surfaces of the body part, and a non-sealing surface provided with the injection part is formed on the other surface of the four surfaces. 8. The pouch type case of claim 7 , wherein the injection part is corrugated and extended in a zigzag shape from the non-sealing surface. 9. The pouch type case of claim 1 , wherein the injection part is integrally formed with the body part before the body part is sealed.
