  • Publication number: 20240396174
    Abstract: A power storage cell includes an electrode assembly and a cell case containing the electrode assembly. The electrode assembly includes a plurality of electrodes arranged in one direction, and a separator formed in a fanfold shape. The separator includes: a plurality of intervening portions each intervening between a pair of electrodes adjacent to each other in the one direction; an upper folded portion; and a lower folded portion. At least one of the upper folded portion and the lower folded portion is provided with a discharge hole for discharging gas.

  • Publication number: 20240379992
    Abstract: An electrode assembly includes a plurality of electrodes arranged side by side in one direction, and a separator formed in a zigzag shape and configured to insulate the plurality of electrodes from each other. The separator includes a plurality of intervening portions, each of which is interposed between a pair of electrodes, an upper folded portion, a lower folded portion, and an outermost covering portion collectively covering the upper folded portion and the lower folded portion. The upper folded portion is connected to the outermost covering portion, and the lower folded portion is connected to the outermost covering portion.

  • Publication number: 20240380008
    Abstract: A power storage cell includes an electrode assembly, a cell case, and an electrolytic solution. The electrode assembly includes a plurality of electrodes arranged side by side in one direction, and a separator formed in a zigzag shape and configured to insulate the electrodes from each other. The separator includes a plurality of intervening portions interposed between a pair of electrodes, an upper folded portion, and a lower folded portion. The plurality of electrodes include a plurality of positive electrodes and a plurality of negative electrodes. The negative electrode is disposed above the lower folded portion. The porosity of the lower folded portion is smaller than the porosity of the intervening portion.

  • Patent number: 10443986
    Abstract: The present invention provides a smoke screen generator with a high diffusion rate of a smoke screen. Ends at both sides of a cylindrical housing are closed by a first closure 20 and a second closure 30 respectively, and a flow path changing member 60 is attached at an interval in an axial direction from the second closure 30. At the time of actuation, a smoke screen source passes through a smoke screen source discharge port 38, first discharge flow paths 44, 45 and 46, and a second discharge flow path 47 and is discharged from a final discharge port 48. Since the smoke screen source is radially discharged from the final discharge port 48, a diffusion rate of a smoke screen increases.

  • Patent number: 10145658
    Abstract: The present invention provides a smoke screen generator with a high diffusion rate of a smoke screen. Openings at both ends of a cylindrical housing are closed by a first closure 20 including an igniter and a second closure 30 having a smoke screen source discharge port 38 respectively. A porous cylindrical body 50 is arranged between the first closure 20 and the second closure 30. When an igniter 5 is actuated, a smoke screen generating agent 56 in a smoke screen generating agent-accommodating chamber 55 is ignited and burned, and a smoke screen source is generated. The smoke screen source moves and passes through the porous cylindrical body 50 and, after passing through a smoke screen source discharge port 38, the smoke screen source is discharged to the outside to generate a smoke screen.

  • Publication number: 20050196924
    Abstract: A first gate insulating film is formed on an SOI layer made of semiconductor of an SOI substrate stacking a supporting substrate, a buried insulting layer and the SOI layer in this order recited. A first gate electrode is formed on the first gate insulating film. The buried insulating layer positioned below the first gate electrode is removed to expose a bottom of the SOI layer. A second gate insulating film is formed on the exposed bottom of the SOI layer. A second gate electrode is formed on a surface of the second gate insulating film.
