  • Patent number: 12595571
    Abstract: An electrolytic liquid generation device includes a stacked body in which a conductive membrane is stacked and interposed between a cathode and an anode adjacent to each other, an electrolytic part that electrolyzes a liquid, and a housing in which the electrolytic part is disposed and a flow path is formed. The electrolytic part includes a slot that is open in the flow path, and in the slot, a part of an interface between the conductive membrane and the cathode and the anode is exposed. Either one of the electrodes of the cathode and the anode has an outer periphery smaller in width than the slot of the electrolytic part. This can provide an electrolytic liquid generation device capable of improving the concentration of an electrolytic product dissolved in the liquid.

  • Publication number: 20250283233
    Abstract: Electrolytic liquid generation device includes stacked body in which conductive membrane is interposed between cathode and anode constituting electrodes, electrolytic part that electrolyzes a liquid, and housing in which electrolytic part is disposed. Housing includes flow path in which a liquid flowing direction intersects a stacking direction of stacked body. Electrolytic part includes slot open to flow path in which a part of interface between conductive membrane and the electrode is exposed. In housing, positioning member is disposed, and positioning member positions the electrode. This configuration provides electrolytic liquid generation device in which an electrode can be downsized and the electrode can be positioned in housing.

  • Publication number: 20080119247
    Abstract: There is provided a portable information processing terminal that places a reduced strain on a finger and is improved in operability. A housing of a cellular phone has a 15-key keypad. Of the buttons of 15-key keypad, the buttons disposed at the opposite ends of each row have a curved ridge. The manipulating surface of each button has inclined areas that extend upward from the ridge (toward a cursor key) and downward from the ridge (toward the bottom of housing).
