Provided is a tape-shaped electrode that can effectively perform discharging and recharging even if the size thereof is increased. The tape-shaped electrode includes a plurality of conductive plates, and insulating coupling members that separably couple the plurality of conductive plates arranged in one direction in an insulating state.

Tape-shaped electrode, metal-air battery employing same, and used tape-shaped electrode reducing device

Device body () with heating chamber (), and door () that opens and closes opening () of heating chamber (). A door wireless communication unit () transmits a control signal from an operation unit provided on doorin the form of a wireless signal to main wireless communication unit (). This configuration eliminates the need of wiring between the operation unit and device body (). No wiring improves noise resistance and productivity.

Cooking device

When a seat heater and a planar electric heater on a surface of an interior member are used in parallel, the seat heater and the planar electric heater cannot be heated sufficiently due to a limitation on an electric capacity of a vehicle, and in particular, in a vehicle having good engine efficiency, heating of an interior of a passenger compartment by air conditioning utilizing hot air generated by heat expelled from an engine is not sufficient, whereby there sometimes occurs a situation where occupants feel cold. A heating deviceis provided in a side door panelof a vehicle and a seat heater is made to be heated mainly at an initial stage of heating after an occupant gets in the vehicle, whereas the heating deviceis made to be heated after a predetermined period of time elapses, whereby the body of the occupant can be warmed quickly and efficiently without making the occupant feel cold physically.

Vehicle heating system

A seat with a heating device is provided which realizes a configuration in which the arm, palms and finger tips of a user can easily be warmed when the user uses the seat with the heating device. When the user is seated in a seat with a heating device and feels cold due to it being winter, the user controls a switch to heat the seat, whereby energization of heating elementsis started which are connected to a power supply via electric wires. When the energization of the heating elementsis started, heat generated thereby is conducted to skin materialsand surfaces of the skin materials are warmed. When the user places his or her arm on an armrest portion, the arm is warmed via the skin material, whereby the user can feel the sensation of comfortableness.

Seat with heating device

An air conditioning seat device includes an air blower, and a dehumidifier for dehumidifying the air sent from the air blower owing to adsorption, and blows out the dehumidified air to holes provided on a skin of a seat through an air duct. In this makeup, the sweat on the body surface and in the clothes is rapidly vaporized, causing a large amount of vaporization heat loss. Accordingly, the human body feels coolness, and steaminess on the skin is suppressed owing to the sweat vaporization.
