Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a float assembly that can prevent the floats from flipping. The present invention provides a float assembly including a plurality of floats connected together comprising: a filled float having a hollow portion, wherein the hollow portion has a part filled with a filler, and the filled float is arranged at a position facing an assembly periphery surrounding the float assembly.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, provided is an active material including a niobium titanium-containing oxide phase and a carbon coating layer. The niobium titanium-containing oxide phase contains a niobium titanium-containing oxide having a monoclinic structure and Na, and a Na content therein is 0 ppm or more and 100 ppm or less. The carbon coating layer coats at least a part of the niobium titanium-containing oxide phase, and contains 0.001% or more of carboxyl group.

Abstract: In general, according to one embodiment, a nonaqueous electrolyte battery is provided. The nonaqueous electrolyte battery includes an electrode group, including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator. The separator includes at least one metal-element containing portion containing a metal element. The at least one metal-element containing portion is provided on a surface of the separator in contact with the negative electrode. The at least one metal-element containing portion contains at least one selected from a group consisting of a metal, a metallic oxide, and a metallic fluoride. An area of the at least one metal-element containing portion is in a range of 0.3 mm2 to 3.2 mm2.

Abstract: The present invention has been made in view of the foregoing, and an object thereof is to provide a float assembly that is configured to be rotatable and that defines a rotation axis without constructing the expensive pillar. The present invention provides a float assembly configured to float on water, comprising: a shaft wire extending from substantially a center of the float assembly toward underwater and configured to maintain tension, wherein the float assembly is moored by the shaft wire and configured to be rotatable.
