  • Publication number: 20210309429
    Abstract: To provide a container bag 34 that can be manufactured easily by folding a sheet material 1 precisely along a folding line 11B. The sheet material 1 is prepared by bonding two films 2 and 3 together in a predetermined pattern, and the sheet material 1 comprises a plurality of cells 16 formed between the two films 2 and 3 while being joined to one another to be filled with fluid. A trunk portion 17 to be filled with a content is formed by bonding overlapping layers of a peripheral edge 9A of the folded sheet material 1. A bottom portion 13 of the container bag 34 is folded inwardly toward the trunk portion 17 along the folding line 11B. A non-bonded section 14 in which the two films 2 and 3 are not bonded together is maintained linearly within the folding line 11B.

  • Publication number: 20210096189
    Abstract: A charge-discharge estimation device derives and sets as a prior estimation function an approximate curve of an initial open-end voltage function and initial impedance function to be corrected a first time. A measurement unit measures a charge-discharge voltage and a charge-discharge current in a cycle of a predetermined time. An estimation calculation processing unit obtains an estimated error between a measured voltage and a prior estimation voltage obtained from the prior estimation function, and obtains a posterior estimation value by applying, to the calculated estimated error and a current value, a correction expression using a Gaussian function having a predetermined learning rate LR and correction width a as terms, corrects the prior estimation function based on the calculated posterior estimation value, sets a new prior estimation function, and estimates a charge-discharge curve.

  • Publication number: 20210016915
    Abstract: A bottle-shaped can includes a cap having an excellent sealing ability but easy to be opened. A top section includes a leading end section as an upper end of a neck portion, a diametrically-largest section formed beneath the leading end section, a diametrically-shrunk section extending downwardly from the diametrically-largest section, and an outer circumferential wall section extending downwardly from the diametrically-shrunk section. The leading end section, the diametrically-largest section, and diametrically-shrunk section form a smooth curved surface. A curvature of the diametrically-largest section in a cross-section is zero or negative value, given that a curvature of the diametrically-shrunk section is positive value. A flexion section is formed between the diametrically-shrunk section and the outer circumferential wall section. The outer diameter of the outer circumferential wall section in which the curvature is zero or negative value is larger than an outer diameter of the flexion section.

  • Patent number: 10662285
    Abstract: The present invention provides a polyester resin composition excellent in transparency and flexibility, high in heat resistance, undergoes the bleeding-out of an oligomer at a reduced level, and can be formed into a formed or molded article or pellets that are rarely agglutinated. A polyester resin composition includes a polyester resin, made by a polymerization reaction of a dicarboxylic acid component containing (a) 75 to 98 mol% of an alicyclic dicarboxylic acid, preferably having 5 to 30 carbon atoms, and (b) 2 to 25 mol% of a dimer acid, preferably having 36 or 44 carbon atoms, with (c) a diol component containing 75 mol% or more of an alicyclic diol. The proportion of the trans-form relative to the total amount of the trans-form and the cis-form of the alicyclic dicarboxylic acid unit contained in the polyester resin composition is desirably 80% or more.
