Abstract

The present invention provides a battery module, including a plurality of battery cells, a plurality of conductive sheets, and at least one plastic protective layer, wherein each conductive sheet is connected in series or in parallel with a plurality of battery cells. The plastic protective layer is formed on the partial surface of the conductive sheet by injection molding to prevent the electrolyte leaked from the defective battery cell from contacting the conductive sheet, causing rise in temperature of the battery cell and causes melt or explosion of the battery cell, which is helpful to improve the safety of the battery module.
