  • Publication number: 20230318099
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a cylindrical secondary battery in which the current collecting structure has been improved. According to the present invention, an elastic part is provided integrally with or separably from a current collecting plate, and thus shocks from external vibration can be absorbed. Thus, the issue in which the substrate of an electrode assembly is squashed or compacted can be minimized.
