Liquid type electrochromic element
First Claim
1. A liquid type electrochromic element produced by adhering two glass substrates each having an electrically conductive film, and involving an electrochromic layer between the lower electrically conductive film and the upper electrically conductive film, a tapping electrode portion of a lower electrically conductive film and a tapping electrode portion of an upper lower electrically conductive film being provided on one side of said electrochromic element.

Abstract
In the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, a liquid type electrochromic element is configured by substrates 1 and 2 having tapping electrode portions 11 and 12 as a part of unified substrate by the processing of the substrate.
As described above, when the upper and lower tapping electrode portions 11 and 12 are provided on one side in such a manner that they are not piled up with each other, the ratio of the effective area can be increased and the area for covering the tapping electrode portions can be decreased in comparison with the technique that the upper substrates are shifted with each other.
Also, since the areas of the tapping electrode portion can be decreased in comparison with the technique that the upper substrates are shifted with each other, the weight of the EC element of the present invention can be decreased so much. Also, the weight can be decreased by diving the tapping electrode portion into two tapping electrode portions each having such size that one is not piled up with another.
Since the tapping electrode portion 11 and the upper electrode portion 12 are not piled up with each other viewing from the direction of laminating the substrates, the liquid type electrochromic element can be connected via a clip electrode.
