Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of manufacturing barrier ribs for a Plasma Display Panel (PDP), which includes the steps of forming a thick film (or, “green tape”) for barrier ribs on a glass or metal substrate by using composition for forming the barrier ribs, which contains water soluble components and solvent soluble components together as a binder; forming a protective pattern film partially soluble or insoluble to the water based solution on the thick film; etching the thick film into a barrier rib shape by using solution or mixed solution containing ceramic powder as an etching accelerator; and sintering the etched thick film. This method causes rare environmental pollution, enables to make barrier ribs having fine and complex shapes and reduces material costs required for the barrier rib. Thus, the method may improve quality of DPD and reduce manufacture costs of the rear plate.
Abstract:
Thermal storage air conditioner including an outdoor unit having an outdoor heat exchanger for making heat exchange, and at least one compressor for compressing refrigerant, an indoor unit having at least one indoor heat exchanger for making heat exchange, a thermal storage unit having a thermal storage tank for holding thermal storage substance therein, a thermal storage heat exchanger for receiving refrigerant from an outside of the thermal storage unit to heat exchange with the thermal storage substance in the thermal storage tank, and a securing member for securing the thermal storage heat exchanger so as to maintain the thermal storage heat exchanger submerged under the thermal storage substance in the thermal storage tank, and a functional unit for selective control of refrigerant flows among the outdoor unit, the indoor unit and the thermal storage unit according to an operation condition, thereby maintaining the thermal storage heat exchanger in the thermal storage tank securely, to prevent drop of heat exchange efficiency caused by movement of the thermal storage heat exchanger.
