  • Publication number: 20240128464
    Abstract: Disclosed are a current collector, an electrode plate, and a battery. The current collector includes a substrate and a conductive coating layer coated on the surface of the substrate, where the conductive coating layer includes alternately arranged raised parts and recessed parts. A plurality of recessed parts are arranged on the conductive coating layer, which may increase the component of the coated active material without increasing the overall thickness, significantly increase the bonding strength of the active material and the conductive coating layer, and improve the conductivity; it can effectively inhibit the thickness expansion of the electrode plate, and solve the problem that the bonding strength of the carbon-containing layer and the active material in the prior art needs to be improved.

  • Publication number: 20230135612
    Abstract: Disclosed are a negative electrode plate and use thereof. For the negative electrode plate provided in the present disclosure, a negative electrode active layer is coated with a safety function layer containing metal and ceramic, which effectively improve an electrode potential of a negative electrode and a nucleation energy barrier of metal lithium of a lithium-ion battery in a charging process at a low temperature and a high rate, thereby avoiding occurrence of a lithium precipitation phenomenon at the negative electrode. Because of good heat insulation performance of the ceramic, occurrence of a thermal runaway phenomenon in a nail penetration test may be effectively avoided, and safety performance of the battery may be improved. When the negative electrode plate is applied to the lithium-ion battery, the obtained lithium-ion battery has advantages of good cycling performance and high security.

  • Patent number: 11119535
    Abstract: A foldable electronic device includes a first portion, a second portion, and a hinge connecting the first portion and the second portion. The hinge is configured to allow pivoting movement of the first portion relative to the second portion, wherein the hinge has a hinge force. One or more magnets are coupled to the first portion, and a plurality of metal members are coupled to the second portion. Each metal member of the plurality of metal members is configured for individual removal from the second portion to define a magnetic force based on the hinge force, thereby allowing the first and second portions to be maintained together when in a closed orientation and allowing for easy one finger opening operation from the closed orientation.
