Abstract: A secondary battery includes: an electrode assembly; a can having a lower surface and a side surface and accommodating the electrode assembly therein; a cap plate coupled to an upper end of the can; a terminal on the lower surface of the can; and an insulator having a plate-shaped portion between the electrode assembly and the lower surface of the can and a wing portion extending upwardly from a circumference of the plate-shaped portion. The wing portion has a cutout portion.

Abstract: A cylindrical secondary battery including: an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate, a separator, and a second electrode plate; a case accommodating the electrode assembly and having an open lower end, the case being electrically connected to the second electrode plate; a first current collector plate between an upper surface of the electrode assembly and the case and being electrically connected to the first electrode plate; a terminal extending through an upper surface of the case and having a lower end electrically and mechanically coupled to an upper surface of the first current collector plate, the terminal having: a welding groove having a depth downward from an upper surface thereof; and a sealing member filling the welding groove; and a cap plate sealing the lower end of the case.

Abstract: A cylindrical secondary battery includes a can and a terminal part including: a first terminal outside of the can; and a second terminal coupled to a terminal hole of the can, arranged inside and outside of the can, and riveted to the first terminal from an outside of the can. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, plastic deformation of a rivet terminal occurs outside of a can, and there is no limitation on the shape of the rivet terminal inside the can. In addition, the rivet terminal may be processed regardless of a size or height of the can, and there is no interference with the can, and a processing time may be reduced.

Abstract: A cylindrical secondary battery includes: an electrode assembly including a first electrode plate, a separator, and a second electrode plate; a cylindrical case accommodating the electrode assembly and electrically connected to the second electrode plate; a terminal coupled to a lower surface of the case through a first gasket and electrically connected to the first electrode plate; a cap plate sealing the upper end of the case; and a second gasket between the case and the cap plate, the second gasket having: a sidewall portion in close contact with a side surface of the case; and a bottom portion extending inwardly from a bottom end of the sidewall portion and having at least one opening formed therein. The bottom portion of the second gasket having flange parts extending from the sidewall portion in an edge region and a bridge part connecting the flange parts to each other.
