Abstract
A battery module in accordance with the present disclosure includes a secondary battery including an electrode assembly and an exterior material configured to accommodate the electrode assembly, a housing member configured to accommodate the secondary battery, and a temperature control member formed inside the housing member, wherein the battery module comprises a structure in which a metal layer formed on an outermost surface of the exterior material comes in contact with the temperature control member, such that temperature deviation among a plurality of the secondary batteries in the battery module is reduced and thus an efficiency in temperature control is enhanced.
Claims12
A battery module, comprising:
- a secondary battery comprising an electrode assembly and an exterior material configured to accommodate the electrode assembly;
- a housing member configured to accommodate the secondary battery;
- and
