METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PRESS-FORMED ARTICLE, PRESS-FORMED ARTICLE, AND PRESS-FORMING APPARATUS
A method for manufacturing a press-formed article (100) includes a first step for forming a base sheet portion, a first rising portion, and a first strip portion from a sheet-shaped workpiece having a first edge portion and a second edge portion; and a second step for forming a second rising portion by causing a strip-shaped first zone including the second edge portion to be disposed between a first upper die and a first lower die from both sides, causing a second zone adjacent to the first zone to be disposed between a second upper die and a second lower die from both sides, and moving the first upper die and the first lower die relative to the second upper die and the second lower die, wherein, in the second step, a part of the second rising portion which is connected to a vertical ridge line (108) is shear-deformed.
FORMING METHOD OF DEEP CAVITY THIN-WALLED METAL COMPONENT WITH EXTREMELY SMALL FILLET RADIUS
A forming method of a deep cavity thin-walled metal component with extremely small fillet radius is provided. In the forming method of a deep cavity thin-walled metal component with extremely small fillet radius, a global cavity is formed by deep drawing by means of a rigid die, an extremely small fillet is formed by means of a extrusion/pushing die, so that the deep drawing process is independent of the extremely small fillet forming process, and the problems of wrinkling, cracking and the like in the process of forming the two simultaneously are avoided. Thus, the problem that the extremely small fillet is difficult or impossible to form can be solved.
MANUFACTURING METHOD OF BATTERY CASE
A manufacturing method of a battery case having a rectangular transverse cross-section in which an intermediate product having an elliptical transverse cross-section is shaped into a final product having a rectangular transverse cross-section by drawing and ironing the intermediate product multiple times to reduce a curvature radius of each corner and thicknesses of side walls formed on both sides of the corner. A difference between an ironing rate of the side wall formed on one side of the corner and an ironing rate of the side wall formed on the other side of the corner is reduced less than a predetermined difference, after the curvature radius of the corner between the side walls has been reduced shorter than a predetermined radius during the process of shaping the intermediate product into the final product.
Sheet metal corner hem interlock
A panel assembly including a main panel, a first side panel, a second side panel, a first tab, a second tab, and an extension. The first tab defines a planar notch into which the extension is positioned to restrict movement of the first side panel and the second side panel.
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN ALUMINUM CASE OF A BATTERY
A method for manufacturing an aluminum case of a battery includes: attaching an insulating layer to at least one surface of the plate body with an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer is disposed between the insulating layer and the plate body; stamping, before the adhesive layer is cured, the plate body coated with the insulating layer to form the aluminum case in a predetermined shape, wherein during the stamping of the plate body, the insulating layer is movable relative to the plate body since the adhesive layer is not cured; and curing the adhesive layer after the stamping of the plate body is completed so that the insulating layer is fixed to the plate body, thereby avoiding detachment of the insulating layer and the plate body on the aluminum case.
CAMOUFLAGED SMALL CELL NETWORKING DEVICES
A small cell device includes a housing body, a heat sink, an interface board, a first power amplifier (PA) board, a second PA board, a power board, and a main board. The housing body defines a cavity and has two depthwise ends. The heat sink is coupled to the housing proximate a first depthwise end. The interface board is positioned within the cavity and adjacent to the heat sink. The first PA board is positioned within the cavity and adjacent to the interface board and the heat sink. The second PA board is positioned within the cavity and proximate a second depthwise end. The power board is positioned within the cavity and adjacent to the second PA board. The main board is positioned within the cavity between the interface board and the second PA board. The heat sink dissipates heat generated during operation of at least the first PA board.

Electrochemical cell having wave corner sealed joints, and device and method for forming same
A forming device is configured to form metal laminated sheet material into a tray-shaped case half while allowing the material to form pleats in the corners of the recess during the forming process while preventing formation of pleats along the flange. The device forms the flange so that excess material in the corners of the case halves is arranged in an undulating shape. As a result, the flange has a waved or ruffled configuration at each corner. Two such case halves are sealed together along the flange to form a reliably sealed package. A method of forming pouch cell is also described.

METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING METAL CONTAINER, APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING METAL CONTAINER, AND METAL CONTAINER
A method for manufacturing a metal container includes a first step of forming a substantially planar four-sided bag using a metal plate; a second step of sandwiching, by first and second parallel plate jigs, one surface and the other surface of the four-sided bag formed in the first step; and a third step of pressurizing an inside of the four-sided bag while maintaining a contact state by the first and second parallel plate jigs with respect to the four-sided bag sandwiched between the first and second parallel plate jigs in the second step, and expanding a volume space in the four-sided bag while increasing a distance between the first and second parallel plate jigs.
