A connecting element for a secondary battery is installed on a path of current flowing through a secondary battery to electrically connect components and includes a first metal plate having a first protrusion formed to protrude at one side end thereof from the center portion of the thickness direction thereof, a second metal plate located spaced apart from the first metal plate with a gap being formed therebetween and having a second protrusion formed to protrude at one side end thereof from the center portion of the thickness direction thereof and face the first protrusion, and an alloy bridge made of alloy material having a melting point lower than those of the first metal plate and the second metal plate and formed to fill the gap. The connecting element may ensure the safety of the secondary battery in use, minimize the increase of resistance caused by applying the connecting element, and be rapidly broken even though the connecting element is applied as a part with a relatively great thickness.

A pouch type secondary battery includes an electrode assembly and a pouch sheath material including a first pouch portion and a second pouch portion. The pouch-type secondary battery includes dual electrode leads wherein a first electrode lead is attached to the first pouch portion and a second electrode lead is attached to the second pouch portion. In the pouch-type secondary battery, electric current is interrupted by using a volumetric swelling phenomenon caused by swelling or pressure generated upon overcharge so that the battery may be prevented from being further charged. In addition, when pressure is increased by an additional reaction, venting occurs toward the inner lead portion of each of the dual electrode leads. As a result, it is possible to increase the stability of a battery cell, module and a pack received in the pouch, and thus to improve the life of a battery.

A secondary battery includes an electrode assembly having an electrode tab; an electrode lead attached to the electrode tab and having at least one lead hole; a pouch case for accommodating the electrode assembly so that the electrode lead is drawn out; and a sealing tape interposed between the electrode lead and the inner surface of the pouch case and having a venting pattern portion formed at a region corresponding to the lead hole. Therefore, when gas is generated inside a pouch case of a secondary battery due to an abnormal circumstance, for example when an overcurrent flows at the secondary battery since a protective circuit does not operate normally, a sealed state of the pouch case is rapidly released, thereby ensuring the safety of the secondary battery in use.

The present invention describes a component for a secondary battery and a manufacturing method thereof, and a secondary battery manufactured by using the component. The component for a secondary battery according to the present invention comprises a lead-free soldering bridge having a melting point of 150 to 300° C. and containing tin (Sn) and copper (Cu) as a main ingredient; the first and second metal plates spaced therebetween through a gap and coupling with the lead-free soldering bridge. According to the present invention, when an over-current flows through the component for a secondary battery, the temperature of the lead-free soldering bridge is locally increased rapidly to melt the lead-free soldering bridge, thereby efficiently interrupting the flow of an over-current.
