Abstract:
Tire fabrics for reinforcing rubber which includes warps having straight portions arranged in parallel with each other at predetermined intervals and wefts woven with the warps. Each weft comprises a pair of parallel portions and a V-shaped connecting portion. The V-shaped connecting portion is provided at the edge portion of the tire fabric.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire which is provided radially outside a carcass (6) with a belt (9) made of cords (10) embedded in topping rubber, each of the belt cords comprises four steel monofilaments (12A and 12B) including one or two waved steel monofilaments (12A) and unwaved steel monofilaments (12B), the four steel monofilaments having the same diameters are compactly twisted together so as to make alternate contact portions and non-contact portions (P) with a gap (T) between at least one waved steel monofilament and the adjacent steel monofilaments, and the four steel monofilaments have the same diameter (d) of 0.2 to 0.35 mm.
Abstract:
A sealed battery includes a battery case with a liquid inlet, a power generating element in the case, a lid member closing the liquid inlet and having a peripheral edge welded to the case over the entire circumference, a circular groove in the outer surface of the case and around the entire periphery of the liquid inlet, a peripheral portion provided over the entire periphery of a portion in the back surface of the lid member facing the liquid inlet, and a protrusion partially placed around the liquid inlet between the circular groove and the peripheral portion to form a clearance between the circular groove and the peripheral portion. The space facing the inner surface in a portion melted during welding between the peripheral edge and the case is continuous to the liquid inlet through a clearance formed by the protrusion between the circular groove and the peripheral portion.
Abstract:
A battery is equipped with a case (200) in which a fill opening (aperture) (201) is formed and a sealing cap (210), which closes the fill opening (201) formed in the case (200). The sealing cap (210) is formed of a thin plate that covers the fill opening (201) in the case (200), the circumferential edge (211) of the sealing cap (210) is bonded to the case (200), and the center (212) of the sealing cap (210) is bent from the circumferential edge (211) and bulges up toward the outside of the case (200). In addition, a chamfer (213) is applied at the bent corner of the sealing cap (210).
Abstract:
A method for joining a resin member and a porous member can prevent peeling in a specified direction. When a thermoplastic laser transmitting resin member and a porous member are joined, the laser transmitting resin layer and the porous member are laminated, and a laser beam is emitted at a side of the laser transmitting resin member. The porous member is heated so that the laser transmitting resin member is melted, and the melted resin is impregnated with holes of the porous member. The resin is cooled so as to solidify.
Abstract:
A cell assembly (20) is formed by arranging an electrode body and electrolyte in an external case (12) having a through hole (41). A laser is applied to an annular portion (formed by Al or Al-based alloy) surrounding an opening end (41A) of the through hole (41) toward outside the case so as to form a welded base (45). A sealing film (54) is welded to the surface of the welded base directly or via a base film (52) welded in advance, so as to temporarily seal the through hole (41). The cell assembly (20) in the temporarily sealed state is subjected to initial charge and then a hole is opened through the film (54) so as to form a gas discharge passage for communication between inside and outside of the case (12), thereby discharging an excessive gas from the case (12) outside.

Abstract:
An object is to provide a battery with good durability, and a vehicle and a battery-mounting device each having such a battery mounted therein. A battery includes a positive electrode terminal member made of aluminum, a negative electrode terminal member made of copper, a positive electrode resin member made of an insulating resin, covering a part of the terminal member in tight contact therewith, and a negative resin member made of an insulating resin, covering a part of the terminal member in tight contact therewith. A positive electrode resin adhesion surface and a negative electrode resin adhesion surface each have been subjected to a surface treatment. A negative electrode sealing length of a shortest path of negative seal paths is longer than a positive electrode sealing length of a shortest path of positive electrode seal paths.
