FIXING STRUCTURE OF ELECTRODE TERMINAL, AND BATTERY, BATTERY PACK AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME

A fixing structure of an electrode includes a battery housing having a bottom with a perforation hole; an electrode terminal fixed to the bottom; and a terminal gasket interposed between the electrode terminal and the bottom. The electrode terminal includes a neck portion inserted into the perforation hole; a head portion connected to one end of the neck portion and having a cross section larger than the cross section of the perforation hole and extending along one surface of the bottom; a protrusion connected to the other end of the neck portion and extending along an axial direction of the battery housing from the other surface of the bottom; a diameter-enlarged portion configured to extend in a centrifugal direction from the protrusion; and a front end surface at an axial end of the protrusion. The diameter-enlarged portion may be a fastening member at an outer circumference of the protrusion.
