  • Publication number: 20240136674
    Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

  • Publication number: 20240128517
    Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on an axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes an uncoated portion at a long side end thereof and exposed out of the separator along a winding axis direction of the electrode assembly. A part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to form a bending surface region that includes overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and in a partial region of the bending surface region, the number of stacked layers of the uncoated portion is 10 or more in the winding axis direction of the electrode assembly.

  • Patent number: 11961720
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a multi-channel device for detecting plasma at an ultra-fast speed, including: a first antenna module connected to a first output terminal in contact with a substrate on a chuck of a process chamber and extending to ground, and receiving a first leakage current leaking through the substrate to increase reception sensitivity of the leakage current; a first current detection module detecting the first leakage current; a current measurement module receiving the first leakage current output from the first current detection module, and extracting the received first leakage current for each predetermined period to generate a first leakage current measurement information; and a control module comparing the first leakage current measurement information with a reference value to generate first arcing occurrence information.

  • Publication number: 20240092141
    Abstract: An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes: a housing having an inside divided into an inflow space, a heat exchange space, and an outflow space, which are straightly arranged, and having a plurality of discharge ports, which communicates with an interior, at the inflow space; a blowing unit disposed at the inflow space of the housing and configured to blow air; a heat exchange unit disposed at the heat exchange space of the housing and configured to adjust a temperature of conditioned air by exchanging heat with air; and an opening-closing door disposed at the outflow space of the housing and configured to open and close the plurality of discharge ports such that conditioned air at an adjusted temperature selectively flows to the plurality of discharge ports. The air conditioning device adjusts the temperature of conditioned air for respective modes and reduces a flow resistance of air.

  • Patent number: 7530077
    Abstract: A method and service for enabling a smallest unit of variable data within a data space of a user application to be dynamically updated using an external source. The application GUI is enhanced with a dynamic update utility (DUU) that enables the data unit to be selected and linked to the broker topic. A list of available topics is presented for selection by the user, and the data unit automatically linked to the selected broker topic without requiring user knowledge of the specific linking parameters of the external source. A JMS client application is provided containing a message listener and an application writing protocol. A subscriber is defined for the data unit and subscribes to the particular event broker topic hosted at a JMS provider. When the event broker receives a publication from the data publication source, a copy of the published data is forwarded to the message listener associated with the subscriber, and the message listener provides the data to the application writing protocol.
