  • Patent number: 12255280
    Abstract: A lamination apparatus for a secondary battery, which thermally bonds an electrode assembly in which electrodes and separators are alternately stacked, the lamination apparatus comprising: a transfer member to transfer the electrode assembly; a support member to support each of top and bottom surfaces of the electrode assembly transferred by the transfer member; a heating member disposed outside the support member to heat the electrode assembly supported by the support member; and a moving member to move the heating member in a direction away from the electrode assembly. The moving member moves the heating member in the direction away from the electrode assembly to prevent the electrode assembly from being heated by the heating member when the transfer member is stopped.

  • Patent number: 10058586
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a use of a human small leucine zipper protein in the adipocyte differentiation procedure. More specifically, sLZIP binds with PPAR?2 to induce the formation of a complex of HDAC3 and PPAR?2, thereby functioning as a corepressor to negatively inhibit the transcriptional activity of PPAR?2 and suppress the differentiation to adipocytes, and thus can be used as a marker for treating diabetes and obesity and developing new medicines therefor.
