Abstract: According to the present disclosure, a secondary battery in which precipitation of metallic lithium can be inhibited more appropriately is provided. The secondary battery disclosed here includes a flat wound electrode body. The wound electrode body has a pair of curved portions and a flat portion. In addition, a positive electrode starting end portion inside the wound electrode body has a first region extending along the flat portion. On the other hand, a negative electrode starting end portion inside the wound electrode body has a second region extending along the flat portion, a folded portion folded back along a first curved portion, and a third region extending from the folded portion along the flat portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a single-packaged epoxy resin coating composition comprising: (A) an epoxy resin having at least one epoxy group in a molecule and capable of being dissolved in the following organic solvent (D), (B) a ketimines compound having at least two primary amino groups blocked with a carbonyl compound and having no other amino groups than the above blocked amino groups, (C) a dehydrating agent and (D) an organic solvent, wherein the above organic solvent (D) comprises a hydrocarbon base solvent selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic hydrocarbon base solvent and an aromatic hydrocarbon base solvent having a boiling point of 148° C. or higher in a proportion of at least 95% by weight based on the above organic solvent (D).

Abstract: A robot that stops an arm within a limitation position of a predetermined working area when the arm is going to exceed the predetermined working area. ACPU of controller calculates a position and a speed of an arm at a next sampling time when a present sampling time comes. The CPU calculates an operation a mount which is a distance to be moved till the arm stops when the arm would be decelerated with a predetermined deceleration, and a position of the arm when the arm would operate by the operation amount after the position at the next sampling time. When a stop position as a result of the deceleration exceeds a predetermined limitation position, the CPU stops the arm with the predetermined deceleration. In this way, the CPU obtains the operation speed of the arm each time, and change a position to start to deceleration based on the operation speed, the arm can be stopped around the limitation position of the working area without fail.

Abstract: In cases where every sampling time has elapsed, a position of the joint which will occur at a moment of end of a next sampling time is calculated on the basis of a speed pattern. Calculation is made as to a drive torque designed to move the joint to the calculated position. In cases where the calculated drive torque exceeds a predetermined limit value, a speed change ratio designed to reduce the drive torque is calculated. In addition, calculation is made as to a corrected sampling time on the basis of the calculated speed change ratio. The corrected sampling time is shorter than a normal sampling time. In cases where the calculated drive torque does not exceed the predetermined limit value, the calculated position is set as a command position and the joint is controlled to move to the command position after a predetermined unit control time elapses.

Abstract: An air drying coating composition comprising a mixture of (A) 9 to 91% by weight of a silicone-modified alkyd resin, a silicone-modified acrylic-grafted alkyd resin and/or a silicone-modified acrylic resin and (B) 91 to 9% by weight of a carboxyl group-containing chlorinated polyolefin resin as a resinous binder.
