Abstract
The present invention relates to a battery pack to which a thin-film label can be easily attached, and a label attaching method thereof. Disclosed in one embodiment is a battery pack comprising: a battery cell having an electrode assembly accommodated in a case; and an external film, which has a label attached to at least one surface of the case and directly attached to the case, a step difference compensation tape attached to the upper surface of the label and positioned on one side of the label, and a protective film attached to the upper surface of the label and extending to the upper part of the step difference compensation tape, wherein the protective film is attached so as to be detachable from the label.
Claims4
A battery pack comprising:
- a battery cell having an electrode assembly accommodated in a case;
- an external film, which has a label attached to at least one surface of the case and directly attached to the case, and a step difference compensation tape attached to an outer surface of the label and positioned on one side of the label;
- and
- an external cover coupled to the battery cell and having a circuit structure embedded at a portion inside the external cover,
- wherein:
- the external cover is on the outer surface of the label,
- the circuit structure is laterally adjacent to the step difference compensation tape, and
- the circuit structure and the step difference compensation tape have a same height such that the battery cell has a flat outer surface.
A label attaching method of a battery cell, comprising the steps of:
- preparing an external film having a label, a step difference compensation tape attached to an outer surface of the label and positioned on one side of the label, and a protective film attached to the outer surface of the label and extending onto an outer surface of the step difference compensation tape;
- attaching the external film to the battery cell such that the label contacts and is coupled with a case of the battery cell;
- removing the protective film from the label;
- and
- attaching an external cover having a circuit structure embedded at a portion inside the external cover to the battery cell,
- wherein:
- the external cover is coupled to the outer surface of the label,
- the circuit structure is laterally adjacent to the step difference compensation tape, and
- the circuit structure and the step difference compensation tape have the same height such that the battery cell has a flat outer surface.
