See full text

According to one embodiment, a bus bar electrically connects terminals of a cathode and an anode of a battery module, the battery module being formed by coupling a plurality of battery cells each including the terminals of the cathode and the anode. The bus bar includes a first connection portion formed of an electrically conductive, substantially conical elastic body which abuts on the terminal of a first battery cell of the battery cells; a second connection portion formed of an electrically conductive, substantially conical elastic body which abuts on the terminal of a second battery cell which is different from the first battery cell; and an electrically conductive plate-shaped member in which the first and second connection portions are formed spaced apart in accordance with a distance between the terminals.
