BATTERY MODULE HAVING EXCELLENT HEAT DISSIPATION ABILITY AND BATTERY PACK EMPLOYED WITH THE SAME
First Claim
1. A battery module including a plurality of plate-shaped battery cells mounted in a module case in a state in which the plate-shaped battery cells are sequentially stacked, wherein each of the plate-shaped battery cells includes an electrode assembly of a cathode/separator/anode structure mounted in a battery case formed of a laminate sheet including a resin layer and a metal layer, and a plurality of heat dissipation members are disposed in two or more interfaces between the respective plate-shaped battery cells such that heat generated from the plate-shaped battery cells during charge and discharge of the plate-shaped battery cells is removed by thermal conduction through the heat dissipation members.
