Abstract: An inductor component includes a base body including an insulator, an inductor wire extending inside the base body, extended electrodes connected to the inductor wire, each of the extended electrodes having a portion exposed to outside of the base body, and outer electrodes connected to respective ones of the extended electrodes. The base body, inductor wire, and extended electrodes form a component body. When a first sectional area is defined as an area of a section of the component body taken along a plane parallel to the bottom surface of the component body at an arbitrary position and when a second sectional area is defined as an area of another section of the component body taken along another plane parallel to the bottom surface closer to the bottom surface from the arbitrary position, the second sectional area is equal to or greater than the first sectional area.

Abstract: This electrode plate has a band-shaped core, and an active material layer formed on both surfaces of the core, and a current collector lead is connected to an exposed part at which the core is exposed. The exposed part is placed on the longitudinal direction portion of the core, and an identification display part that can specify the history of the manufacturing process is formed at a position different from the current collector lead in the exposed part. In the core, the active material layer is placed at a position on the opposite side to the identification display part in the core thickness direction.

Abstract: In a roll press device, a thickness meter is provided on the exit side of first and second pressure rollers and detects the thickness of an electrode plate of a secondary battery at three or more points in the width direction of the electrode plate. From thickness measurement values at the three or more points and a thickness target value, a calculation unit calculates three feature amounts: the deviation between a thickness measurement value at the central point among the three or more points and the thickness target value, the quadratic component of the thickness profile of the electrode plate, and the linear component of the thickness profile of the electrode plate, and adaptively changes the respective pressure setting values of the first press mechanism, the second press mechanism, the first bend mechanism, and the second bend mechanism based on the three feature amounts.
