  • Patent number: 11955593
    Abstract: A power storage module includes an electrode laminate including a plurality of bipolar electrodes which are laminated and a sealing body sealing a space between a pair of the bipolar electrodes adjacent to each other in a laminating direction among the plurality of bipolar electrodes in the electrode laminate. Each of the plurality of bipolar electrodes includes an electrode plate. The sealing body includes a group of primary sealing bodies each provided at an edge portion of the electrode plate and a secondary sealing body. The secondary sealing body includes a first resin portion that is provided along a side surface of the electrode laminate extending in the laminating direction and bonds the group of primary sealing bodies, and a second resin portion covering the first resin portion.

  • Patent number: 11916183
    Abstract: The power storage device includes power storage units arranged with a conductive plate interposed therebetween in the vertical direction, each of the power storage units includes an electrode stack including bipolar electrodes stacked with a separator interposed therebetween, and a sealing member provided around the electrode stack so as to seal a housing space formed between adjacent electrodes of the electrode stack. At least one of the power storage units is provided with an overhang member on an outer peripheral surface of the sealing member. The overhang member includes an inclined portion that extends from the outer peripheral surface of the sealing member toward the outside of the power storage unit and inclines downward as it leaves away from the outer peripheral surface of the sealing member, and a top portion formed at a lower end of the inclined portion.

  • Patent number: 5007240
    Abstract: A hybrid Rankine cycle system comprises a boiler in which water steam is generated, a steam turbine which is worked by the water steam from the boiler to drive a generator to obtain an electric power, an absorber condenser for introducing thereinto strong absorbent solution to absorb the water steam from the steam turbine to produce weak absorbent solution, and a pump for delivering the weak absorbent solution from the absorber condenser to the boiler. The weak absorbent solution is heated in the boiler to produce the strong absorbent solution to be fed to the absorber condenser and the water steam to be fed to the steam turbine.
