Abstract
Disclosed is a battery module capable of preventing a gas generated from a secondary battery from flowing into a cooling flow path or a duct connected thereto. The battery module includes a plurality of pouch-type secondary batteries; a first frame having an upper cooling plate and a lower cooling plate disposed to be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance in a vertical direction to form a cooling flow path in a space therebetween and configured to accommodate the pouch-type secondary battery in at least one of an upper portion of the upper cooling plate and a lower portion of the lower cooling plate; and a second frame having an upper cooling plate and a lower cooling plate to accommodate the pouch-type secondary battery in a way identical to the first frame, the second frame being stacked on the first frame to form a venting flow path in a space between the first frame and the second frame.
