Abstract

In the process of connecting multiple cylindrical battery cells in series and parallel, weld flatness is ensured to improve the workability and productivity of the process. [Solution] The battery includes a housing, a plurality of first battery cells housed in the housing and having a first positive terminal and a first negative terminal, a plurality of second battery cells housed in the housing and having a second positive terminal and a second negative terminal, a first busbar connecting the first negative terminals of the plurality of first battery cells, a second busbar connecting the second positive terminals of the plurality of second battery cells, and a third busbar connecting the first positive terminal of the first battery cell and the second negative terminal of the second battery cell, wherein at least one of the first busbar, the second busbar and the third busbar is deformable in shape depending on the positions of the first battery cells and the second battery cells.
