Abstract: A connector has a conductive member attaching portion to which an end portion of a conductive member is to be attached, and a holder portion provided with an insertion hole into which the conductive member is inserted, and a fitting hole into which the conductive member attaching portion is fitted, the fitting hole being in communication with the insertion hole, the holder portion being configured to hold the conductive member attaching portion. The holder portion is provided with engaged portions with which engaging portions, which are provided at respective ends of the conductive member in the width direction, engage. The conductive member attaching portion is provided with a closing portion configured to close a part of the insertion hole. When the conductive member attaching portion has been fitted into the holder portion, the closing portion closes a part of the insertion hole with the engaging portions engaged with the engaged portions.

Abstract: There is provided a sealed battery having excellent corrosion resistance and sealing performance. The sealed battery 1 includes a battery jacket can 2 having a bottom and being in a cylindrical or polyhedral shape. The battery jacket can 2 also serves as a collector of one of the electrodes. The battery jacket can 2 has an opening pointing upwards and accommodates active parts (3, 4, 5 and 20). The opening is sealed by a sealing part 10 that includes a flat metal sealing plate 6, a gasket 9 made of an insulator, and a terminal part 7 of the other electrode. In the sealing part, the terminal part is attached to the sealing plate 6 using the gasket 9. The sealing plate has a planar shape that matches a shape of the opening of the battery jacket can. The sealing plate is in a saucer shape whose edge section is bent upwards.

Abstract: A spirally-wound lithium battery includes: a bottomed cylindrical cell can doubling as an anode current collector; and a strip-shaped electrode body including an anode and a cathode arranged faced each other via a separator, the anode including an anode active material of lithium metal or alloy, the cell can being sealed, with a non-aqueous organic electrolyte, containing the electrode body wound in a longitudinal direction, the electrode body being wound from a winding axis side around the axis in a vertical direction, an extending direction of a cell can cylindrical axis, such that the anode is arranged at an outermost circumference, the electrode body is attached with a conductor, continuously extending in the longitudinal direction thereof, on an outer circumferential surface of the anode, from a winding end of the anode to an area thereof opposed to an inner surface of the cathode on its winding end side.

Abstract: There is provided non-aqueous organic electrolytic solution for a lithium primary battery which can be stored for long period at elevated temperatures or at the end stage of discharge. Non-aqueous organic electrolytic solution 20 for lithium primary battery 1 having a cathode active material which is manganese dioxide and an anode active material which is either of lithium or lithium alloy includes a base electrolytic solution that is composed of organic solvent and supporting electrolyte and to which either one of hydroxyphthalimide or hydroxyphthalimide derivative is added as an additive. An amount of the additive which is added to the base electrolytic solution is 0.1 wt % or more and 5.0 wt % or less. It is more preferable that the amount of the additive which is added to the base electrolytic solution is 0.1 wt % or more and 1.0 wt % or less.

Abstract: A gas-liquid contacting device is disclosed which comprises a frame, a driving means mounted to the frame, a vertical rotating shaft rotatably mounted to the frame and adapted to be driven by the driving means, and a rotor secured to the lower end of the vertical rotating shaft, the rotor being substantially a hollow body of rotation e.g. a hollow inverted cone with a center line coaxial to the axis of the rotating shaft. The rotor is adapted to be immersed partly or entirely into the liquid to be mixed with a gas, e.g. air.
