  • Patent number: 11417911
    Abstract: The invention provides a laminated all-solid-state battery that can increase volumetric energy density and maintain the shape of the all-solid-state battery, as well as a method for producing the laminated all-solid-state battery. The all-solid-state battery comprises a battery stack having two or more unit cells and an exterior film sealing the battery stack, wherein the battery stack has a hexahedron shape formed by a top surface and bottom surface in the stacking direction and first, second, third and fourth side walls, the exterior film is a single film covering the battery stack from the top surface and bottom surface in a manner covering the fourth side wall, and condition (i) is satisfied when collector tabs protrude from the first or third side wall or condition (ii) is satisfied when collector tabs protrude from the second side wall, as well as a method for producing the all-solid-state battery.

  • Publication number: 20200208850
    Abstract: An indoor unit of an air conditioner includes a suction port, multiple blow ports provided to surround the periphery of the suction port, and multiple louvers provided at the blow ports to adjust a blowing direction. When the indoor unit is stopped, each louver is rotated in the direction of closing the blow port, the angle of which is a fully-closed angle. A remote controller is configured to set action of each louver upon operation of the indoor unit. When the minimum angle among louver angles is taken as a first angle and the maximum angle is taken as a second angle, the louver angles of some of the multiple blow ports are, in heating operation, set to a third angle greater than the fully-closed angle and smaller than the first angle, and the louvers of the other blow ports are set to automatic swing or downward blowing.
