  • Patent number: 11945923
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing an electrolytic capacitor, the method including the steps of preparing an anode foil that includes a dielectric layer, a cathode foil, and a fiber structure; preparing a conductive polymer dispersion liquid that contains a conductive polymer component and a dispersion medium; producing a separator by applying the conductive polymer dispersion liquid to the fiber structure and then removing at least a portion of the dispersion medium; and producing a capacitor element by sequentially stacking the anode foil, the separator, and the cathode foil. The dispersion medium contains water. The fiber structure contains a synthetic fiber in an amount of 50 mass % or more. The fiber structure has a density of 0.2 g/cm3 or more and less than 0.45 g/cm3.

  • Patent number: 10954902
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a cylinder block including a cylinder, a cylinder head including an intake port, the intake port communicating with the cylinder, an intake manifold fixed to the cylinder head, the intake manifold being configured to supply intake air into the cylinder, and a dynamic vibration absorber configured to suppress vibration of the intake manifold. A direction that is orthogonal to both a central axis of the cylinder and a rotational axis of a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine is defined as a width direction. The dynamic vibration absorber is attached to the intake manifold on an opposite side of a center of gravity of the intake manifold from the cylinder head in the width direction.
