Abstract
A battery pack includes a first cell, a second cell, and a third cell arranged along a first axis, the first cell including first tabs extending toward the second cell, the second cell including second tabs extending toward the first cell, and the third cell including third tabs extending toward the second cell, a first circuit body between the first cell and the second cell, a second circuit body between the second cell and the third cell, and a third circuit body connecting the first circuit body and the second circuit body, wherein at least one of the first through third circuit bodies includes a rigid circuit board, and at least another one of the first through third circuit bodies includes a flexible circuit board.
Claims16
A battery pack, comprising:
- a first cell, a second cell, and a third cell arranged along a first axis, the second cell being between the first cell and the third cell along the first axis, the first cell including first tabs extending toward the second cell, the second cell including second tabs extending toward the first cell, and the third cell including third tabs extending toward the second cell;
- a first circuit body between the first cell and the second cell;
- a second circuit body between the second cell and the third cell;
- and
- a third circuit body connecting the first circuit body and the second circuit body, the third circuit body extending across end portions of the first and second circuit bodies and opposite ends of the third circuit body being electrically connected to the end portions of the first and second circuit bodies, such that the first through third circuit bodies are arranged in an approximate Π(pi) shape, as viewed in a top view, to surround three side surfaces of the second cell,
- wherein the third circuit body extends in a band shape along the first axis and the first and second circuit bodies extend in a band shape along a second axis, the second axis intersecting the first axis,
- wherein the third circuit body includes at least one flexible circuit board, and wherein at least one of the first circuit body and the second circuit body includes at least one rigid circuit board.
