Abstract: A method for manufacturing a glass panel unit includes an assembling step, a bonding step, a gas exhausting step, a sealing step, and an activating step. The bonding step includes melting a peripheral wall in a baking furnace at a first predetermined temperature to hermetically bond a first glass pane and a second glass pane together with the peripheral wall thus melted. The gas exhausting step includes exhausting a gas from an internal space through an exhaust port in the baking furnace to turn the internal space into a vacuum space. The sealing step includes locally heating to a temperature higher than a second predetermined temperature, and thereby melting, either a port sealing material or an exhaust pipe to seal the exhaust port and thereby obtain a work in progress.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to solve a problem that, in the case where NFC and power supply operation of wireless power supply or the like repeat in a time division manner, the count value of a charge timer is reset to an initial value and a charge timer erroneously operates during an NFC period. A charge output terminal charges a battery using DC output voltage. A voltage detecting circuit detects reach of battery voltage to a predetermined level, generates a control signal, and generates a level determination signal discriminating an NFC period and a wireless power supply period by detection of the level of a DC input voltage of an input terminal. During execution of operation of counting charge time of the battery by the charge timer, the voltage detecting circuit controls the charge timer by the control signal in the NFC period, and the charge timer holds the count values of the counting operation.
