Rechargeable battery

A rechargeable battery that includes: an electrode assembly with a first electrode and a second electrode that include uncoated regions and coated regions; a case; a first electrode tab and a second electrode tab coupled to the first and second electrodes; and a laminating tape attached to opposite surfaces of a front end portion disposed at a center of the electrode assembly and opposite surfaces of a terminal end portion disposed at an outermost side of the electrode assembly. The second electrode tab is coupled to the uncoated region of the second electrode toward the uncoated region of the first electrode in the terminal end portion that is disposed at the outermost side of the electrode assembly, the first electrode tab is coupled to the uncoated region of the first electrode while being disposed closer to the coated region than the second electrode tab in the terminal end portion that is disposed at the outermost side of the electrode assembly, and an insulating laminating tape for preventing the second electrode tab and the uncoated region of the first electrode from electrically contacting each other is further included.
