The present invention relates to a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing new additives and a lithium secondary battery including the same. More particularly, the invention relates to a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a lithium salt, an electrolyte compound, a first additive compound with an oxidation initiation potential of more than 4.2 V, and a second additive compound with an oxidation initiation potential of more than 4.2 V, which is higher in oxidation initiation potential than the first additive, and deposits oxidative products or form a polymer film, in oxidation, as well as a lithium secondary battery including the same. The present invention can provide a lithium secondary battery excellent in both the battery performance and the battery safety in overcharge by the combined use of the first additive and the second battery as additives to the nonaqueous electrolyte solution.

Disclosed is a switching circuit for balancing battery cells. The switching circuit includes plural pairs of switching means, each pair of which are connected to each other in parallel and interrupt a flow of electric current in a bi-direction in order to reduce the internal voltage applied to the switching means. According to the present invention, since the switching elements of low internal voltage can be used for the switching circuit, it is possible to constitute the switching circuit for cell balancing without use of switching elements of high internal voltage and to reduce the number of MOSFETs, thereby making it possible to design the switching circuit effectively. Since the MOSFETs having the low internal voltage and low resistance are used for the switching circuit, it is possible to reduce a loss of the electric current due to the resistance during the cell balancing, thereby improving the balancing efficiency and reducing heat generation.

A membrane-electrode assembly in which an opening, a catalyst layer and a diffusing layer are placed within a cathode active region; a method for manufacturing the same; and a fuel cell system using the membrane-electrode assembly. The membrane-electrode assembly comprises: a cathode with a catalyst layer, an opening in the catalyst layer, and a diffusing layer; an anode with a catalyst layer and a diffusing layer; and an electrolyte membrane between the cathode and the anode. A hydrogen ion generated by oxidizing a liquid fuel is transferred to the cathode via the electrolyte membrane, and returns to the anode without reaction in the cathode, so that the hydrogen ion is reduced in the anode by receiving electrons from the anode, thereby generating hydrogen gas on the anode channel. The hydrogen gas is used as a high efficiency fuel, thereby enhancing the output performance of the fuel cell.

When a vehicle location is estimated using only detection signals from a sensor unit installed on a vehicle since the value of dilution of precision (DOP) of a navigation message received by a GPS receiver is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold in a navigation system, the vehicle location is precisely estimated using a traveled distance, a travel angle difference, and lateral and longitudinal inclinations of the vehicle. The value of DOP of the navigation message received by the GPS receiver is compared with the predetermined threshold. If the value of DOP is less than the predetermined threshold, reference vehicle location information is set using the navigation message. If the value of DOP is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the reference vehicle location information is set using vehicle location information just previously map-matched and the detection signals from the sensor unit. The vehicle location is estimated using the set reference vehicle location information and the detection signals from the sensor unit and then map-matched on a digital map stored in a map data storage unit, thereby displaying the map-matched results on a display unit.

A login browser form allows a user to securely login to an account and access a web-based service at a server or server farm, referred to as a transaction node, without using a separate authentication or single sign-on server. A user is assigned to one of multiple transaction nodes as its home when the user enrolls in the web-based service. In a subsequent attempt to login, the user may land at the home transaction node or at a non-home transaction node. The transaction node serves the login browser form, including code to cause the web browser to transmit the user login id to the transaction node. If the transaction node determines that it is not the user's home, based on its records of user assignments, it identifies the home and configures the web browser to direct future communications to the home. The user's password is not sent to the non-home.

Disclosed is a sliding mechanism apparatus used for slidably opening and closing a slider-type cellular phone. A guide member and a slider member are engaged with each other so as to enable to slide relative to each other. The end of one arm of a first torsion spring is connected to the slider member near the left edge thereof. The end of the other arm thereof is coupled to the right half area of the guide member. The end of one arm of a second torsion spring is connected to the slider member near the right edge thereof. The end of the other arm thereof is coupled to the left half area of the guide member. From the expanded original state of the first and second torsion springs, if an external force is exerted on the slider member or the guide member, the torsion springs are compressed into an acute angle and then spread again by means of the elastic force thereof. In this way, the slider member can move to the lowermost position or the lowermost position. In the first and second torsion springs, the distance between the ends of two arms is larger than at least half of the width of the slider member. Therefore, the first and second torsion springs can maximally utilize the width of the guide member while turning, thereby extending the maximum travel distance of the slider member.
