  • Publication number: 20240136674
    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 a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

  • Publication number: 20240128517
    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.

  • Patent number: 8486753
    Abstract: Disclosed are a patterning method of a metal oxide thin film using nanoimprinting, and a manufacturing method of a light emitting diode (LED). The method for forming a metal oxide thin film pattern using nanoimprinting includes: coating a photosensitive metal-organic material precursor solution on a substrate; preparing a mold patterned to have a protrusion and depression structure; pressurizing the photosensitive metal-organic material precursor coating layer with the patterned mold; forming a cured metal oxide thin film pattern by heating the pressurized photosensitive metal-organic material precursor coating layer or by irradiating ultraviolet rays to the pressurized photosensitive metal-organic material precursor coating layer while being heated; and removing the patterned mold from the metal oxide thin film pattern, and selectively further includes annealing the metal oxide thin film pattern.

  • Patent number: 6843534
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an armrest apparatus installed in a chair for a computer work. An armrest member which is freely movable on a horizontal surface by a link apparatus is provided in an upper portion of an armrest body vertically installed at both sides of a seat of a chair. The armrest apparatus is used as a common armrest for a chair at a usual time on which a user's arms are placed in such a manner that an armrest member is closely contacted with an upper surface of an armrest body or is lifted upwardly. The armrest member is upwardly lifted at the height at which a keyboard work is conveniently performed during a computer work, so that a user's arms are freely movable on the armrest on a horizontal surface.
