20090122467ELECTRIC DOUBLE-LAYER CAPACITOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - In an electric double-layer capacitor, resistance of a polarizable electrode layer is reduced and gas generation inside a case is suppressed in an attempt to improve reliability. On that account, an electric double-layer capacitor is provided, which is obtained by housing in a case, together with a driving electrolyte, a capacitor element wound with a separator interposed between electrodes being paired anode and cathode electrodes in each of which polarizable electrode layers are formed on and lead wires are fixed to both sides of a current collector made of metallic foil, such that the polarizable electrode layers are opposed to each other. Further, an electric double-layer capacitor is provided in which the lead wire is fixed to a polarizable-electrode-layer-removed section on the electrode where the polarizable electrode layer has been removed, and an area of the polarizable-electrode-layer-removed section is not smaller than 1 and not larger than 2.0 when a project area of a portion where the lead wire is connected with the current collector is set to 1.05-14-2009
20100079927CAPACITOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A capacitor includes a capacitor element including first and second electrodes, an electrolyte solution, first and second collector plates made of metal and joined to the first and second electrodes of the capacitor element, respectively, a case accommodating the capacitor element, the electrolyte solution, the first and second collector plates, a terminal plate placed at an opening of the case and joined to the second collector plate, and a sealing rubber sealing the terminal plate and the opening of the case. The case has a tubular portion and a bottom plate closing the tubular portion. An inner surface of the bottom plate of the case has a contacting portion contacting the first collector plate and a junction portion facing the first collector plate. The first junction portion of the inner surface of the bottom plate has a joining point joined to the first collector plate and a separation part facing the first collector plate around the first joining point by a first gap between the first junction portion and the first collector plate. The first collector plate is located away from the first contacting portion. The capacitor has a high reliability in connecting the electrodes, preventing an unnecessary resistance or a pin hole produced in the case.04-01-2010
20120019984CAPACITOR - A capacitor has a capacitor element, an electrolyte, a cylindrical case made of metal and having a bottom, a metal terminal plate, and a sealing rubber. The terminal plate has a body portion and a flange portion projected from an outer peripheral surface of the body portion toward the case. The sealing rubber is abutted onto the flange portion of the terminal plate, and is interposed between the outer peripheral surface of the body portion of the terminal plate and a side surface of the case for sealing the case. The case has a drawn and grooved portion formed by being drawn and thus grooved from an outside of the side surface at a place so that the sealing rubber is compressed between the outer peripheral surface of the body portion of the terminal plate and the case. Then, a ring-like groove is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the body portion of the terminal plate at a portion, which is padded with the sealing rubber, the sealing rubber is projected into the groove.01-26-2012

20090305299Method for Determination of Prognosis of Prostate Cancer, and Diagnostic Agent for Use in the Method - A method for determining probability that prostate cancer will metastasize, as well as a diagnostic reagent used therefor is disclosed. It was discovered that the percentage that NF-κB-p65/RelA has the 254th amino acid threonine which is phosphorylated is significantly higher in the prostate cancer cells in the cases where the bone metastasis was observed than in the cases where bone metastasis was not observed. Thus, the method for determining probability that prostate cancer will metastasize comprises measuring human NF-κB-p65/RelA in which 254th amino acid threonine is phosphorylated, which human NF-κB-p65/RelA is contained in a prostate tissue separated from human.12-10-2009
