Battery cell and case with corresponding small grooves

1. A battery pack comprising a battery cell including an electrode assembly of a cathode/separator/anode structure mounted in a receiving part of a cell case, wherein

the cell case that is made of a laminate sheet including a resin layer and a metal layer is provided, at a predetermined region of the cell case corresponding to an upper end interface of the electrode assembly while the electrode assembly is mounted in a receiving part, with a small groove pressing against the upper end of the electrode assembly and fixing the electrode assembly with respect to the receiving part to prevent an upward movement of the electrode assembly, the small groove disposed in parallel with the upper end of the electrode assembly,

wherein an inner surface of the cell case is protruded toward the upper end interface of the electrode assembly to form the small groove, and

wherein the small groove has a depth of 0.5 to 1.5 mm, and

wherein the inner surface of the pack case is constructed in a structure corresponding to a small groove of the battery cell.

2. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the cell case is also provided, at a predetermined region of the cell case corresponding to the lower end interface of the electrode assembly while the electrode assembly is mounted in the receiving part, with another small groove such that the small groove is continuously formed in parallel with the lower end of the electrode assembly.

3. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the small groove is constructed in a semicircular depression structure in vertical section.

4. The battery pack according to claim 3 , wherein the small groove of the semicircular depression structure has a radius of curvature R of 0.3 to 3 mm.

5. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the battery cell is a lithium secondary battery.
