ABSTRACT:
A rechargeable battery includes an electrode assembly comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween, the electrode assembly having an uncoated region; a case for housing the electrode assembly; an outer terminal; a cap assembly combined with the case and sealing the case, and combined with the outer terminal; and a tab. The tab includes a terminal element connected with the outer terminal; left and right connection elements extended from ends of the terminal element and disposed to correspond to each other in parallel; and left and right inward junction elements connected at respective sides of the left and right connection elements through respective bending areas to form gaps relative to a part of the respective left and right connection elements and electrically connected with the uncoated region of the electrode assembly through the gaps.
