Prismatic battery module and method for manufacturing the same
First Claim
1. A prismatic battery module comprising:
- a prismatic battery case having a plurality of prismatic cell cases connected to one another through separation walls;
an electroconductive connector forming at least a central part of the separation wall arranged between the cell cases;
an electrode plate group arranged in each of the plurality of cell cases, the electrode plate group including positive electrode plates, negative electrode plates, and separators interposed therebetween, and further forming lead portions by projecting one side portion of the positive electrode plates and one side portion of the negative electrode plates in opposite directions, respectively; and
an electrolyte accommodated in each of the cell cases, wherein the positive electrode plates and the negative electrode plates are directly connected to the respective electroconductive connectors arranged on both sides of each cell case.

Abstract
A prismatic battery module includes a prismatic battery case having a plurality of prismatic cell cases connected to one another through separation walls, a planar electroconductive connector forming part of the separation wall between the cell cases, an electrode plate group arranged in each cell case, and an electrolyte placed in each cell case. Lead portions of positive electrode plates and negative electrode plates of the electrode plate group are directly connected to the electroconductive connector. The prismatic battery module requires fewer connection points and provides shorter electrical communication paths, thereby reducing internal resistance.
