  • Publication number: 20230012643
    Abstract: To provide a method for predicting the c-axis length of a lithium compound crystal structure, a method for building a learning model for predicting a c-axis length, and a system for predicting a crystal structure having the maximum c-axis length. A method for predicting the c-axis length of a crystal structure of a lithium compound containing cobalt, nickel, and manganese includes preparing a descriptor including n values (n is an integer greater than or equal to 0) obtained by converting a crystal structure of the lithium compound in which manganese at any one or more of n sites is substituted by a metal atom among crystal structures of the lithium compound into binary data and a characteristic value of the metal atom; inputting the descriptor into a learned learning model; and outputting a predicted value of c-axis length of an optimized crystal structure and a descriptor corresponding to the optimized crystal structure as an output value of the learning model.

  • Patent number: 10773921
    Abstract: A first engaging part is located on an outer surface of a cord reel and protrudes in a first direction orthogonal to a rotation axis of the cord reel. A second engaging part is located on the outer surface of the cord reel at a position different from the first engaging part in a second direction along the rotation axis. A holder base has an opening through which the cord reel can be inserted in the second direction. One or more notches are formed along the outer periphery of the opening of the holder base and allows the first engaging part to pass therethrough in the second direction. When the cord reel is attached to the holder, the holder base is disposed between the first engaging part and the second engaging part in the second direction.
