Abstract

An embodiment of the present invention provides a secondary battery capable of concurrently securing a vibration characteristic and an insulation function of an electrode assembly by using one finishing tape. To this end, a secondary battery according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate, a second electrode plate, and a separator interposed between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate; a can for receiving the electrode assembly; a cap assembly for sealing the can; a first current collection plate provided above the electrode assembly and electrically connected to the first electrode plate and the cap assembly, respectively; a second current collection plate provided under the electrode assembly and electrically connected to the second electrode plate and the can, respectively; and a finishing tape having a first region which has an adhesive layer formed thereat to surround the circumferential surface of the electrode assembly, and a second region which can surround a space beyond the upper end of the electrode assembly.

Claims (10)

1. A secondary battery comprising:

an electrode assembly;

a can accommodating the electrode assembly;

a current collector plate having a first surface electrically connected to an end of the electrode assembly; and

a finishing tape including a fixing member having an adhesive layer formed on at least a portion thereof and surrounding a circumferential surface of the electrode assembly, and an insulating member having an adhesive layer formed on at least a portion thereof and capable of surrounding the end of the electrode assembly and a periphery of the current collector plate, wherein the insulating member comprises a region covering a second surface of the current collector plate, which is opposite to the first surface of the current collector plate.

2. The secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fixing member and the insulating member are disposed on a same plane at boundaries thereof.

3. The secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the finishing tape includes an adhesive layer disposed across both of the fixing member and the insulating member.

4. The secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fixing member is made of an OPS or TPV material.

5. The secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the insulating member is made of a PET, PP, or PI material.

6. The secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the can includes a beading part, and the insulating member is adjacent to the beading part.
