  • Publication number: 20210210794
    Abstract: To provide a lithium-ion storage battery or electronic device that is flexible and highly safe. One embodiment of the present invention is a flexible storage battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, an exterior body that surrounds the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator, and a wiring provided along the exterior body. At least part of the wiring is more easily breakable by deformation than the exterior body. The wiring is more vulnerable to deformation than the exterior body and thus damaged earlier than the exterior body. Damage to the wiring is detected and an alert is sent to a user; thus, the use of the storage battery can be stopped before the exterior body is damaged.

  • Publication number: 20210143500
    Abstract: Disclosed is a power storage unit which can safely operate over a wide temperature range. The power storage unit includes: a power storage device; a heater for heating the power storage device; a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of the power storage device; and a control circuit configured to inhibit charge of the power storage device when its temperature is lower than a first temperature or higher than a second temperature. The first temperature is exemplified by a temperature which allows the formation of a dendrite over a negative electrode of the power storage device, whereas the second temperature is exemplified by a temperature which causes decomposition of a passivating film formed over a surface of a negative electrode active material.

  • Publication number: 20210135472
    Abstract: A decrease in the capacity of a power storage device is inhibited by adjusting or reducing imbalance in the amount of inserted and extracted carrier ions between positive and negative electrodes, which is caused by decomposition of an electrolyte solution of the negative electrode. Further, the capacity of the power storage device can be restored. Furthermore, impurities in the electrolyte solution can be decomposed with the use of the third electrode. A power storage device including positive and negative electrodes, an electrolyte, and a third electrode is provided. The third electrode has an adequate electrostatic capacitance. The third electrode can include a material with a large surface area. In addition, a method for charging the power storage device including the steps of performing charging by applying a current between the positive and negative electrodes, and performing additional applying a current between the third electrode and the negative electrode is provided.

  • Patent number: 10937999
    Abstract: In the case where a secondary battery is repetitively curved, portions which tend to cause deterioration such as crack or breakage are, for example, a positive electrode tab and a negative electrode tab. This is because these portions are narrow projected portions, and tend to have low mechanical strength against repetitive curving in some cases. In view of the above, the positive electrode tab and the negative electrode tab are provided in portions relatively less affected by curving. More specifically, secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a positive electrode lead electrically connected to the positive electrode, a negative electrode, a negative electrode lead electrically connected to the negative electrode, a separator, and an exterior body wrapping the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator. The positive electrode, the separator, the negative electrode, and the exterior body can be curved in a first direction.
