Secondary battery
First Claim
1. A secondary battery comprising:
- positive and negative collector plates;
a positive plate and a negative plate, each coated with an active material;
a separator interposed between the positive plate and the negative plate a plurality of first weld lines arranged at predetermined angles with respect to one another on the positive collector plate for welding the positive collector plate to the positive plate; and
a plurality of second weld lines arranged at predetermined angles with respect to one another on the negative collector plate for welding the negative collector plate to the negative plate.

Abstract
A secondary battery includes an electrode assembly having a separator interposed between a positive plate and a negative plate. Each of the positive and negative plates has a portion that is not coated with active material. The uncoated regions of the positive and negative plates are respectively fixed to positive and negative collector plates by welding. A plurality of first weld lines are formed on the positive collector plate at predetermined angles from one another. A plurality of second weld lines are formed on the negative collector plate also at predetermined angles from one another. The plurality of first weld lines and the plurality of second weld lines are offset from one another.
