Abstract:
An electrode needle includes an electrode needle body, a metal tube, and an outer insulating tube. The electrode needle body is connected to a positive electrode of an RF generator. The metal tube is fixed around the electrode needle body and insulated from the electrode needle body. The metal tube is connected to a negative electrode of the RF generator. The outer insulating tube surrounds an upper part of the metal tube to expose a lower part of the metal tube. The outer insulating tube is movable longitudinally along the electrode needle body to vary an exposed area of the metal tube. At least one of a position, an area, and a cauterization speed of a site to be cauterized is controlled by varying the exposed area of the metal tube.

Abstract:
The present invention discloses a linear compressor in which a piston is linearly reciprocated inside a cylinder, for sicking a refrigerant into a compression space between the piston and the cylinder, and compressing and discharging the refrigerant, and especially, a structure of discharging the refrigerant for the linear compressor which can reduce a pulsation of a high pressure discharged refrigerant, by making the refrigerant compressed in the compression space flow from a sub-discharge space with a relatively small volume to a sub-discharge space with a relatively large volume in a discharge chamber. As a result, the structure of discharging the refrigerant for the linear compressor can efficiently reduce noise and vibration.

The display device includes a display unit which detects a position of an external device including a near field communication (NFC) device and includes a plurality of NFC tags, a plurality of sensors which sense at least one of current, voltage, and power of an NFC tag enabled by the external device among the NFC tags, and a determination unit which determines a position of an NFC tag adjacent to the external device based on sensing results of the sensors.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a linear compressor including a cylinder in which refrigerants flow to the axial direction, a piston reciprocated inside the cylinder, for compressing the refrigerants, and a linear motor for driving the piston. At least one of the cylinder and the piston is sintering molded.
Abstract:
A method of displaying a portrait on a display is provided. The method includes determining whether a photographed image is a character-photographed image according to photographing information of the photographed image; executing face detection from the photographed image if it is determined that the photographed image is a character-photographed image; setting a character area in the photographed image according to a result of the face detection; and magnifying and displaying the character area on the display.
Abstract:
An organic light emitting diode and a method of fabricating the same. The organic light emitting diode includes a substrate, a first electrode on the substrate, emission layers on the first electrode including red, green and blue pixel regions, and a second electrode on the emission layers. The organic light emitting diode further includes an electron transport layer on the emission layers, and an intermediate layer formed by co-depositing metal quinolate and an organic material between at least one of the emission layers and the electron transport layer. The intermediate layer inhibits hole transport and increases a life span of the red pixel region.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a discharge valve assembly for a linear compressor, comprising: a discharge valve installed at one end of the cylinder to be opened and closed, a compression space for compressing a sucked refrigerant by linear reciprocation of a piston being formed in one end of the cylinder, a discharge cap fixedly installed at one end of the cylinder, for forming a discharge space to which the refrigerant of the compression space is discharged; a discharge valve spring installed between the discharge valve and the discharge cap, for opening and closing the discharge valve according to a refrigerant pressure; and a ring-shaped discharge valve supporter installed in the discharge cap, having at least one main protrusion directly contacting the inner circumference of the discharge cap and at least one auxiliary protrusion disposed with an interval from the inner circumference of the discharge cap being formed on the outer circumference of the discharge valve supporter.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for data-assisted content programming are described. Link access data for a website is collected, such as numbers and times of views and clicks for links of the website, and link generated revenue information. The link access data is optionally stored. A link performance measure is generated for a link based on the link access data. An indication of the calculated link performance measure for the link is graphically displayed in a content scheduler. The indication may be based on an actual click through rate for the link, on an average click through rate for links in a module in which the link resides, link user engagement information, revenue generated by the link, or on other link access data. The content scheduler may display a website content schedule timeline or a webpage preview that includes the graphical indication.
