Abstract: To enable welding in a state in which aluminum plating in a desired welding region is removed at a desired high accuracy, a plating layer (103) in a welding region (151) and a plating layer (104) in a welding region (152) are removed using an alkaline solution to form a preprocessed aluminum plated steel sheet (101a), and a plating layer (123) in a welding region (153) and a plating layer (124) in a welding region (154) are removed using an alkaline solution to form a preprocessed aluminum plated steel sheet (121a).

Abstract: A harness according to this invention comprises an electric cord, a first tape, and a second tape. The tapes are electrically conductive. The first tape has a first adhesive part adhered to the electric cord and two first overlapping parts spaced apart from the electric cord. The second tape has a shape corresponding to the shape of the first tape and has a second adhesive part adhered to the electric cord, and two second overlapping parts provided at ends of the second adhesive part, respectively, and firmly contact the first overlapping parts. The second adhesive part holds the electric cord in cooperation with the first adhesive part of the first tape.

Abstract: A battery charge circuit using a constant voltage/constant current to power charge a plurality of battery packs, a current detection circuit to detect a charge current according to a predetermined value, and control mechanisms to maintain a constant voltage charge mode when the charge current value drops below a set value within the battery pack.

Abstract: In a battery-driven portable computer, a battery pack is constituted by m battery sets connected in series each including n lithium-ion secondary battery cells connected in parallel. A voltage monitor for monitoring the voltage of the terminal electrode of each battery set and a charger for independently appropriately charging each battery set in accordance with a monitor result are arranged, thereby realizing battery driving by a lithium-ion secondary battery pack having a large capacity. A computer system monitors the voltages of the battery cells which are part of a secondary battery by comparing the battery voltages with a predetermined voltage value in order to detect overdischarge (undervoltage) or overcharge (overvoltage), outputs this information outside of the battery pack, and terminates processing prior to a circuit disconnect.
