Patent number: 11959675Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit connected to each other via a refrigerant pipe through which refrigerant flows. The air-conditioning apparatus includes a refrigerant sensor that detects leakage of the refrigerant in the indoor unit, a notification unit that provides a notification of occurrence of leakage of the refrigerant, a transmitter that communicates with an external terminal via a network, and a controller that controls the notification unit and the transmitter. The notification unit includes a display and a speaker disposed on a surface of a casing of the indoor unit, and the external terminal. When leakage of the refrigerant is detected by the refrigerant sensor, the controller controls the notification unit and the transmitter to provide a notification of occurrence of leakage of the refrigerant.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2018Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Kazuki Watanabe, Masahiko Takagi

Publication number: 20230062789Abstract: Provided is a laminate for a secondary battery with which a secondary battery in which both safety and charging capacity are excellent can be produced. The laminate includes a negative electrode, a first separator affixed to one surface of the negative electrode, a positive electrode affixed to a surface of the first separator at an opposite side thereof to the negative electrode, and a second separator affixed to another surface of the negative electrode. In the laminate, at least part of a side surface of the positive electrode along a stacking direction is covered by a raised section where the first separator is deformed. When a surface where the first separator and positive electrode are in contact is taken as a reference surface, stacking direction height of the raised section from the reference surface is 15% to 130% of stacking direction height of the positive electrode from the reference surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2020Publication date: March 2, 2023Applicant: ZEON CORPORATIONInventor: Kazuki TAKAGI
