Abstract
A battery may include a short circuit member connected to a terminal having a first polarity and a deformable conductive member having a second polarity, the deformable conductive member being insulated from the short circuit member, the deformable conductive member being configured to contact the short circuit member when a voltage applied thereto exceeds a predetermined voltage.
Claims21
A battery, comprising:
- a short circuit member connected to a terminal having a first polarity;
- and
- a deformable conductive member having a second polarity, the deformable conductive member being insulated from the short circuit member, the deformable conductive member being configured to contact the short circuit member when a voltage applied thereto exceeds a predetermined voltage.
A secondary battery, comprising:
- a case having a first polarity;
- an electrode assembly in the case;
- an electrode terminal electrically connected to the electrode assembly, the electrode terminal having a second polarity;
- a short circuit member electrically coupled to the electrode terminal;
- and
- a deformable conductive member electrically coupled to the case and being configured to contact the short circuit member when a voltage supplied thereto exceeds a predetermined voltage.
