Secondary battery pack

1. A secondary battery pack comprising:

a battery cell having a main body, an anode terminal and a cathode terminal, the main body having a top major surface, a bottom major surface and sidewalls extending between the top major surface and the bottom major surface;

a protection circuit module (PCM) electrically connected to the battery cell via the anode terminal and the cathode terminal;

a frame mounted to the PCM and the battery cell, the frame having a first pair of sidewalls and a second pair of sidewalls to surround the PCM and the battery cell, each sidewall of the frame having a top edge and a bottom edge to form a top edge and bottom edge of the frame; and

a bottom formed by the bottom edge of the frame, the bottom having four openings formed by a support extending inwardly from the bottom edge of the frame, the support having a first member extending between the first pair of sidewalls and a second member extending between the second pair of sidewalls,

wherein the first member crosses the second member at a point between the first pair of sidewalls and between the second pair of sidewalls,

wherein the frame does not extend over the top major surface of the battery cell,

wherein the first pair of sidewalls and the second pair of sidewalls extend over an entire height of the battery cell sidewalls,

wherein the PCM comprises a board having a protection circuit formed thereon, the board being provided with an anode terminal connection part and a cathode terminal connection part connected to the anode terminal and the cathode terminal, respectively,

wherein the board is coupled to the anode terminal and the cathode terminal of the battery cell via the anode terminal connection part and the cathode terminal connection part,

wherein the board further comprises an external input and output terminal,

wherein the external input and output terminal is connected to the board via an interconnection part connected to one end of the board,

wherein the interconnection part is configured to have a plate structure,

wherein the frame further comprises a first opening, through which the interconnection part extends,

wherein the external input and output terminal is connected to a portion of the interconnection part extending outside the frame,

wherein the battery cell is configured to have a structure in which an electrode assembly, comprising cathodes, anodes, and separators respectively disposed between the cathodes and the anodes, and is disposed in a battery case made of a laminate sheet comprising a metal layer and a resin layer in a sealed state, and

wherein the first opening is a slit in which one side of the slit corresponding to a mounting direction of the frame is opened.

2. The secondary battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the frame is configured to have a structure to surround the PCM and thermally welded outer circumferences of the battery cell.

3. The secondary battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the frame is configured to have an open structure in which at least a portion of a surface of the main body of the battery cell is exposed outside in a state in which the frame is mounted to the PCM and the battery cell.
