CABLE TYPE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

Provided is a cable-type secondary battery including at least one anode extending longitudinally and having a horizontal cross section of a predetermined shape, a first electrolyte layer surrounding the anode and serving as an ion channel, at least one cathode extending longitudinally and having a horizontal cross section of a predetermined shape, the anode and the cathode arranged in parallel, a second electrolyte layer serving as an ion channel commonly surrounding the anode and the cathode, and a protection coating surrounding the second electrolyte layer. The cable-type secondary battery has free shape adaptation due to its linearity and flexibility. Introduction of the electrolyte layer on the electrode prevents a short circuit. The presence of a plurality of electrodes leads to an increased contact area therebetween and consequently a high battery rate. By adjusting the number of the anodes and the cathodes, it is easy to control the capacity balance therebetween.
