Secondary battery and method for manufacturing the same

1. A secondary battery comprising:

a can member; and

an electrode assembly having a positive electrode, a negative electrode and a separator disposed therebetween, which are wounded together in a jelly-roll shape,

wherein the positive electrode or the negative electrode comprises:

an electrode collector;

a coating portion coated with an active material on the electrode collector; and

a non-coating portion on which the active material is not applied to the electrode collector, the non-coating portion being adjacent to the coating portion in a longitudinal direction of the electrode collector; and

a notching tab part formed in the non-coating portion and extending from the coating portion in a width direction of the electrode collector perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the notching tab part being wound to form two or more overlapping layers,

wherein the notching tab part comprises a plurality of notching tabs each formed from a respective portion of the two or more overlapping layers,

the plurality of notching tabs are circumferentially distributed about a central axis of the electrode assembly,

the plurality of notching tabs each having two or more layers are in a bent state to form an overlapping region therebetween in the width direction of the electrode collector, and

the plurality of notching tabs are bonded at the overlapping region and electrically connected to the can member.

2. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of notching tabs each having two or more layers form the overlapping region at a central portion of an end of the electrode assembly, and in the overlapping region, the two or more layers of each of the plurality of notching tabs are stacked along the central axis of the electrode assembly.

3. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of notching tabs is formed on an outer portion of the end of the electrode assembly.

4. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein parts of each of the plurality of notching tabs forming the overlapping region are bonded to the can member by welding.

5. The secondary battery of claim 1 , further comprising an insulation member disposed between bent parts of the plurality of notching tabs and an end of the electrode assembly.

6. The secondary battery of claim 5 , wherein the overlapping region is disposed on the insulation member.

7. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of notching tabs are equally circumferentially distributed about the central axis of the electrode assembly.

8. The secondary battery of claim 1 , further comprising an electrode tab attached to a non-coated portion at one end of the electrode collector in the longitudinal direction, wherein bent parts of the plurality of notching tabs overlap the electrode tab, and the bent parts of the plurality of notching tabs and the electrode tab are electrically connected to the can member by welding.

9. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the bent parts of the plurality of notching tabs overlap the electrode tab on a central portion of an end of the electrode assembly.

10. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein the notching tab part continuously extends across ⅓ or more of a total length of the coating portion in the longitudinal direction.

11. The secondary battery of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of notching tabs has a width of 4 mm to 5 mm.
