Abstract: Provided are an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and vehicle including the same. An electrode assembly, in which a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound about an axis to define a core and an outer circumferential surface. At least one of the first electrode and the second electrode includes, at a long side end portion, an uncoated portion exposed beyond the separator in a direction of the axis. At least a part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to define a bent surface region having overlapping layers of the uncoated portion. The bent surface region includes a welding target region having a number of the overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and the welding target region extends along a radial direction of the electrode assembly.

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.

Abstract: A gripper includes a body part, a finger base part coupled to the body part, and a finger part coupled to a first side of the body part or the finger base part and coupled to the body part or the finger base part to be reciprocal, wherein the finger part comprises a first link structure and a second link structure, sides of which are coupled to the finger base part, respectively, and wherein, in the first link structure and the second link structure, a first support area of the first link structure and a second support area of the second link structure reciprocate in only one of a plurality of directions that cross a direction in which the finger part reciprocates with respect to the finger base part.

Abstract: A gripper includes a body part, a finger base part coupled to the body part to be rotatable, the finger base part including a first finger base part and a second finger base part configured such that when the first finger base part is rotated in a first direction with respect to the body part, the second finger base part is provided to be rotatable in a second direction opposite the first direction with respect to the body part, and a finger part coupled to a first side of the body part or the finger base part to be reciprocal.

Abstract: An embodiment device includes an input module including a motor configured to generate a rotational force, an output module configured to receive power from the input module to be rotatable, and a connection module having a first side coupled to the input module and a second side, opposite the first side, coupled to the output module, wherein the connection module is configured to transmit the power from the input module to the output module.

Abstract: Provided are a memory controller for controlling a refresh cycle of a memory and a method thereof. In this method, a temperature measure command is generated to measure an operating temperature of the memory. Next, a measured temperature in response to the temperature measure command is received. Then, a temperature difference between the measured temperature and a reference temperature is detected if the measured temperature is different from the reference temperature to change the refresh cycle according to the temperature difference, and if the measured temperature is equal to the reference temperature the method returns to the temperature measure command generating step. Thereafter, a refresh command is applied to the memory in response to the changed refresh cycle.

Abstract: Provided is a delay locked loop (DLL) adapted for high-speed operation of a semiconductor memory device. The delay locked loop (DLL) includes: a clock buffer; a plurality of clock dividers; and a controller for activating an enable signal at a falling edge of a control clock by using a reset bar signal and a control clock outputted from the clock buffer.
