ABSTRACT:
A lithium ion secondary battery has a shape memory safety vent adapted to discharge internal compressed gas by temporarily being opened when the temperature reaches a predetermined level to avoid a swelling phenomenon of the battery and improve safety. The lithium ion secondary battery includes an electrode assembly having first and second electrode plates wound a number of times with a separator interposed between them; a can having an opening formed on a side thereof to contain the electrode assembly; and a cap plate adapted to cover the can and provided with a vent hole on a side thereof, to which a safety vent adapted to deform at a predetermined temperature and discharge gas from inside the can to the exterior is coupled.
