Abstract: Provided is a technique suppressing an electrode assembly inside an outer case from moving in a vertical direction with a simple configuration. An electric storage device includes the electrode assembly, the outer case, a sealing plate, a current collector, and an insulating member. The electrode assembly includes a tab. The outer case includes a bottom surface and an opening opposed to the bottom surface, and is a member accommodating the electrode assembly inside. The sealing plate covers the opening. The current collector is attached to the sealing plate, and is electrically connected to the electrode assembly via the tab. The insulating member is arranged between the sealing plate and the current collector. In addition, the insulating member includes an extension part configured to extend toward the electrode assembly so as to press the electrode assembly onto the bottom surface.

Abstract: Provided is a technique decreasing a risk of damaging inside of an electrode assembly by an electrolytic solution injection. The electric storage device includes an electrode assembly, an electrolytic solution, an outer case, a sealing plate, and a current collector. The electrode assembly includes an electrode tab. The outer case includes an opening. The sealing plate is provided with a liquid injection hole. The current collector is attached to the sealing plate, and is electrically connected to the electrode assembly via the electrode tab. On the sealing plate, the liquid injection hole is provided not to overlap with a portion to which the current collector is attached. Between the liquid injection hole and the electrode assembly, a shielding part is provided to inhibit the electrolytic solution injected through the liquid injection hole from directly coming into contact with the electrode assembly.

Abstract: A battery cell includes: a resin insulator having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the first portion being a portion that insulates a terminal portion and a sealing plate from each other outside an exterior container, the second portion being a portion that insulates a current collector and the sealing plate from each other inside the exterior container, the third portion being a portion that has a tubular shape and that communicates with an electrolyte solution injection hole, wherein the third portion of the resin insulator includes a shielding portion that shields between at least a portion of the electrolyte solution injection hole and an electrode assembly, and the first portion, the second portion and the third portion of the resin insulator are molded to be integrated together.

Abstract: A living body measurement apparatus according to the present invention functions both as a muscular tissue hardness tester for measuring hardness of muscular tissue of a living body and as an algesiometer for measuring a degree of sense of pain of the living body, and the apparatus includes: an contacting section which includes a first contact surface contacting the living body, and which applies pressure to the living body; an auxiliary section which includes a second contact surface contacting the living body, and which supports the second contact surface so that the second contact surface perform reciprocating movement between a coplanar position in which the second contact surface is disposed substantially coplanar with the first contact surface and a retracted position in which the second contact surface is retracted with respect to the first contact surface; and a locking mechanism which locks the auxiliary section in a state in which the second contact surface is disposed at the retracted position.

Abstract: A muscle hardness meter according to the present invention, which measures the hardness of muscle tissue of a living organism, includes: an auxiliary part which touches a periphery of a section of the living organism to be measure so as to apply pressure to the periphery; a touching part which touches the section to be measured so as to apply pressure to the section to be measured; a first pressure sensor which measures pressures that the touching part and the auxiliary part sustain, respectively, from the section to be measured and the periphery, and outputs a first measurement result; a second pressure sensor which measures a pressure that the touching part sustains from the section to be measure, and outputs a second measurement result; a notification part which notifies the second measurement result; and a control part which determines whether or not the first measurement result teaches a reference pressure value input in advance and notifies the second measurement result to the notification part at a tim
