  • Patent number: 10892452
    Abstract: A cell structure of the present invention includes first and second sheet shaped cells, each including a first electrode and a second electrode, and an insulating member arranged between the first and second sheet shaped cells. Here, the second electrode of the first sheet-shaped cell and the second electrode of the second sheet-shaped cell face each other. The first sheet shaped cell includes a tab portion extended on an XY plane to outside of the second sheet shaped cell and the second sheet shaped cell includes a tab portion extended on the XY plane to outside of the first sheet shaped cell. The second electrodes are connected through a tab lead arranged from the tab portion to the tab portion.

  • Patent number: 8354141
    Abstract: A liquid treatment apparatus treating a surface of a substrate held generally horizontally on a stage in a housing by supplying a treating liquid to said surface from a supply nozzle. The liquid treatment apparatus includes a cup body provided so as to surround the substrate held in the substrate holding part laterally, the cup body being mounted detachably to a base inside the housing from an upward direction thereof; a cup body holding part holding the cup body detachably; and an elevating mechanism moving the cup body holding part up and down between a first position at which the cup body is mounted upon the base body and a second position located above the first position.
