Abstract: An adjustment mechanism of nursery equipment includes a string connecting a fixed portion and a movable portion, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the movable portion by winding up and feeding out the string, a biasing member that biases the reel in such a way that the reel rotates in a winding direction of the string, and a lock member that prohibits rotation of the reel. A biasing force of the biasing member is selected to be smaller than a biasing force with which the movable portion tends to move downward in the vertical direction.

Abstract: An adjustment mechanism of nursery equipment includes a string connecting a fixed portion and a movable portion, a reel that is rotatable in both forward and reverse directions and that changes the position or shape of the movable portion by winding up and feeding out the string, a one-way clutch mechanism that allows rotation of the reel in a winding direction of the string and prohibits rotation of the reel in a feeding direction of the string, and an unlock member that unlocks the reel from a rotation prohibited state caused by the one-way clutch mechanism and thus allows the reel to rotate freely

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of manufacturing a lithium-ion secondary battery electrode. The method includes the steps of: supplying composite particles (1), each containing an active material (2) and a binder (4), onto a sheet collector (42); and rolling the composite particles (1) supplied onto the collector (42), thus forming an active material layer (44).

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a lithium-ion secondary battery electrode sheet proposed herein, a current collector (11), a powder material (13) of granulated particles, and a binder solution (12) are prepared. The binder solution (12) is applied onto the current collector (11). Subsequently, the powder material (13) of the granulated particles is fed onto the current collector (11).

In the basic manufacturing method, adhesive strength of the powder material (13) of the granulated particles is enhanced after the powder material (13) of the granulated particles is fed onto the current collector (11) and before or while the powder material (13) of the granulated particles is pressed against the current collector (11).

Abstract: Provided is a technique capable of evenly smoothing powder supplied to the surface of a supply member. A powder coating apparatus includes a pair of press rollers, hoppers, and squeegee rollers disposed such that prescribed gaps are formed between the squeegee rollers and the press rollers, and adjusting thickness of the powder by smoothing the powder supplied to each outer circumferential surface of the press rollers. The powder coating apparatus presses the powder, smoothed by the squeegee rollers, between the press rollers to form compressed powder layers on both the surfaces of the web. The squeegee roller is formed in a column having an axis being parallel to the outer circumferential surface of the press roller and being orthogonal to a moving direction of the outer circumferential surface of the press roller.
