Abstract: Embodiments relate to laser welding methods, monitoring methods, and monitoring systems for a secondary battery. A laser welding method for a secondary battery includes performing laser welding on a positive electrode base having a thin-film shape in which a plurality of positive electrode base tabs are formed at a side, a negative electrode base having a thin-film shape in which a plurality of negative electrode base tabs are formed at a side, and a thin-film multi-tab to be joined to each of the positive electrode base and the negative electrode base, a welded portion in which the multi-tab is welded with the positive electrode base and the negative electrode base being melting-joined by using a laser such that a plurality of welding spots is formed on the welded portion.

Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing a secondary battery includes: an index table configured to receive a secondary battery cell, the secondary battery cell including an electrode assembly, a can accommodating the electrode assembly, and an electrode tab between the electrode assembly and the can to electrically connect the electrode assembly to the can; a laser scanner configured to irradiate laser onto an outer surface of the can to weld the electrode tab to the can; and a controller configured to variably control the laser scanner according to an operation of the index table.

Abstract: A hydro bushing includes an outer pipe, an inner pipe disposed within the outer pipe and spaced apart from the outer pipe, an elastic body disposed between the outer pipe and the inner pipe and provided with a liquid chamber portion accommodating liquid therein, and a nozzle disposed between the outer pipe and the elastic body and including a stopper extending toward the liquid chamber portion such that a portion of an internal surface of the nozzle protrudes to be in contact with the liquid chamber portion. A contact end of the stopper is formed to have a surface corresponding to deformation of the elastic body caused by conical movement.

Abstract: A void bush for a vehicle suspension includes: inside bumps formed in an inside stopper and outside bumps formed in an outside stopper. In particular, the inside bumps and the outside bumps are configured to cross perpendicularly to each other to allow the inside bumps and the outside bumps to be brought into point-contact with each other during behavior of the suspension. The inside bumps are not arranged in parallel to each other and the outside bumps are not arranged in parallel to each other. Accordingly, contact area between the inside bumps and the outside bumps is greatly reduced and contact abrasion positions therebetween are diversified so that durability and lifespan of the void bush are improved.

Abstract: A bushing may include an elastic compression portion configured to form a primary compression ratio due to a compressive deformation by a primary press-fitting load and be pressed by a secondary compression ratio greater than the primary compression ratio by a secondary press-fitting load greater than the primary press-fitting load, wherein the elastic compression portion is formed in an opened cross section to be a secondary surface contact larger than a primary surface contact without a bulge phenomenon by a volume dispersion in a state in which it is pressed by the primary press-fitting load to be the primary surface contact and then is pressed by the secondary press-fitting load.
