  • Patent number: 10586954
    Abstract: In the case where a film, which has lower strength than a metal can, is used as an exterior body of a secondary battery, a current collector provided in a region surrounded by the exterior body, an active material layer provided on a surface of the current collector, or the like might be damaged when force is externally applied to the secondary battery. A secondary battery which is resistant to external force is obtained. An opening is provided in a central portion of the secondary battery, and a terminal is formed in the opening. An outer edge of the secondary battery is fixed by thermocompression bonding. In addition, the central portion of the secondary battery is fixed by thermocompression bonding, so that the amount of bending is limited even when the outer edge portion of the secondary battery is bent.

  • Patent number: 10219395
    Abstract: To provide a power storage unit having a structure which is unlikely to break down by change in shape, such as bending. An electrode plate is covered with a sheet of an insulator which is folded in two. The sheet is preferably processed into a bag-like shape or an envelope-like shape by bonding overlapping portions of the sheet in the periphery of the electrode plate. The electrode plate and the sheet are fixed to an exterior body. In the case where the shape of the exterior body is changed by bending or the like, the electrode plate and the sheet can slide together in the exterior body. Thus, stress on the electrode plate due to bending can be relieved.

  • Patent number: 10122010
    Abstract: An electronic device having a novel structure, specifically, an electronic device having a novel structure that can be changed into various appearances is provided. Specifically, after an active material layer is formed on one or both surfaces of a current collector, the active material layer in a bent region is partly removed. The removed region of the active material layer can be in a linear shape, a dot shape, or a matrix shape, for example. After the active material layer is formed on one or both surfaces of the current collector, laser processing for removing part of the active material layer in an irradiation region is performed using laser light or the like. On the region where the surface of the current collector is exposed, the active material layer is not provided, and this region is a region that does not function as a battery. Owing to this region, a secondary battery with a wide movable region can be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20170207114
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a semiconductor element (a thin film transistor, a thin film diode, a photoelectric conversion element of silicon PIN junction, or a silicon resistor element) which is light-weight, flexible (bendable), and thin as a whole is provided as well as a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device. In the present invention, the element is not formed on a plastic film. Instead, a flat board such as a substrate is used as a form, the space between the substrate (third substrate (17)) and a layer including the element (peeled layer (13)) is filled with coagulant (typically an adhesive) that serves as a second bonding member (16), and the substrate used as a form (third substrate (17)) is peeled off after the adhesive is coagulated to hold the layer including the element (peeled layer (13)) by the coagulated adhesive (second bonding member (16)) alone. In this way, the present invention achieves thinning of the film and reduction in weight.
