Abstract
A battery module includes a cell support unit accommodating at least one or more secondary battery cells, a body frame member on which a plurality of the cell support units are installed, and a cover member disposed between adjacent cell support units. The cover member includes a fixed plate portion fixed between the adjacent cell support units, and a flip portion connected to the fixed plate portion and disposed between electrode tabs of the secondary battery cells adjacent to each other to separate a space between the electrode tabs externally, the flip portion being pushed by internal gas or flame of the secondary battery cells discharged due to rupturing of the secondary battery cells, to be position-moved so that the space between the electrode tabs communicate externally.
