The present invention relates to a battery cell stack in which a plurality of pouch-shaped battery cells is stacked. An alignment mark is formed at the bottom of a receiving portion configured to receive an electrode assembly in each of the plurality of pouch-shaped battery cells. The plurality of pouch-shaped battery cells is stacked such that the alignment marks individually formed at the pouch-shaped battery cells completely overlap each other in a stacking direction, and the alignment mark is a reference for measuring the dimensions of the pouch-shaped battery cells. Consequently, it is possible to manufacture a battery cell stack in which the plurality of pouch-shaped battery cells is accurately aligned with each other in the stacking direction.

The insulator includes a through hole defined by an inner wall that includes a lower open end, an upper open end, and a central portion. At least one of the lower open end and the upper open end has a larger diameter than the central portion.

The present disclosure relates to a battery module that includes a housing having a first protruding shelf along a first perimeter of the housing, a second protruding shelf along a second perimeter of the housing, where the first and second protruding shelves each include an absorptive material configured to absorb a first laser emission. The battery module also includes an electronics compartment cover configured to be coupled to the housing via a first laser weld, and a cell receptacle region cover configured to be coupled to the housing via a second laser weld. The electronics compartment cover has a first transparent material configured to transmit the first laser emission toward the first protruding shelf and the cell receptacle region cover has a second transparent material configured to transmit the first laser emission or a second laser emission toward the second protruding shelf.

The present invention relates to a method for forming a pouch, and the method for forming the pouch according to the present invention comprises: a curling process of bending a pouch sheet in a round shape; a seating process of seating the bent pouch sheet on a lower mold, in which a molding groove is formed; and a forming process of pressing the pouch sheet by using a punch mold to form an accommodation part, in which an electrode assembly is accommodated, in the pouch sheet.

The present invention provides a manufacturing device of a battery case including a first mold including a first space part having a shape corresponding to a storage part formed therein; a second mold including a second space part having a shape corresponding to the storage part and a through-hole communicating with the second space part formed therein, and coupled to the first mold with a laminate sheet interposed therebetween; and an air pressure regulator mounted in the through-hole in a state in which the first space part and the second space part are isolated from the outside, and increasing or decreasing an air pressure of the second space part through the through-hole to stretch and modify the laminate sheet into a shape corresponding to the first space part or the second space part.

A method for depositing a structure comprising interdigitated materials includes merging flows of at least two materials in a first direction into a first combined flow, dividing the first combined flow in a second direction to produce at least two separate flows, wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and merging the two separate flows into a second combined flow.

A fiber-reinforced resin molded article is molded into a three-dimensional shape on the basis of a sheet-shaped base material containing a fiber-reinforced resin. The fiber-reinforced resin molded article includes three-way directed corner portions constituted by plate sections joined in three mutually different directions. The fiber-reinforced resin molded article includes wrinkles that protrude from the differently directed corner portions by folding the sheet base material, and thick-walled sections which are laminated at sites where at least the wrinkles are formed.

The present disclosure is directed to an encapsulated printed circuit board populated with a variety of components and a method of encapsulating a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board is partially encapsulated with a low pressure molded material to form at least a portion of a potting boat. The potting boat is filled with an encapsulating material.

A pouch-type secondary battery and a method of manufacturing same are capable of completely protecting a metal layer from moisture or air by forming an insulating coating layer including a conformal coating layer on the metal layer exposed at a cut surface of a battery case. The method includes a first step of preparing a battery case including an upper case and a lower case by cutting a laminate sheet including an outer coating layer, a metal layer, and an inner coating layer; a second step of receiving an electrode assembly between the upper case and the lower case; a third step of forming a sealing portion by contacting outer peripheries of the upper case and the lower case; and a fourth step of forming a conformal coating layer on a side surface of the sealing portion so as to prevent exposure of the metal layer.
