Abstract:
A variable oil pump capable of rapidly ejecting a required amount of working fluid using an oil pressure of the working fluid generated according to an engine RPM, and improving a lubrication effect to improve engine efficiency. Also described is a variable oil pump, in which a gap is provided between a plunger and a cylinder to easily operate the plunger using an oil pressure output from an oil pump, enabling more rapid supply of a required amount of oil using an oil pressure varied according to variation in an engine RPM. A variable oil pump is described in which the plunger is perpendicularly operated with respect to a flow direction of the working fluid, such that the plunger can be operated in a direction in which a pressure of the working fluid is applied to operate the oil pump.
Abstract:
A recording medium, such as a high-density and/or read-only recording medium, such as BD-ROM, which contains copy protection information encoded in intermittent or alternate wobbled pits, and to methods and apparatuses for forming, recording, and reproducing data on the recording medium.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for providing a location information-based scheduling service is disclosed. The method includes determining a meeting point or appointed place based on location information associated with a plurality of portable terminals. The method includes suggesting various routes and means to travel to the appointed place; and providing data content to a user of a first portable terminal until one or more users associated with the other portable terminals arrive at the appointed place. The appointed place can be determined based on a distance between all the portable terminals and/or their respective movement times. Users can share their expected arrival times and information regarding their current locations while traveling towards the appointed place. If a portable terminal user requests a content while waiting for other users to arrive, the surplus time can be calculated and available contents can be provided within the surplus time.
Abstract:
A method for joining two ceramic parts, or a ceramic part and a metal part, and the joint formed thereby. The method provides two or more parts, a braze consisting of a mixture of copper oxide and silver, a diffusion barrier, and then heats the braze for a time and at a temperature sufficient to form the braze into a bond holding the two or more parts together. The diffusion barrier is an oxidizable metal that forms either a homogeneous component of the braze, a heterogeneous component of the braze, a separate layer bordering the braze, or combinations thereof. The oxidizable metal is selected from the group Al, Mg, Cr, Si, Ni, Co, Mn, Ti, Zr, Hf, Pt, Pd, Au, lanthanides, and combinations thereof.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing a virtual private network (VPN) service based on mutual authentication are provided, the apparatus including a storage unit configured to store a first public key and a second public key; an authentication unit configured to authenticate a VPN server with the first public key and to authenticate a user device with the second public key; and a tunnel management unit configured to generate a first VPN tunnel and a second VPN tunnel to relay data between the user device and the VPN server based on the authentication of the VPN server and the user device by the authentication unit.
Abstract:
A recording medium, such as a high-density and/or read-only recording medium including a data area including at least two data sections and a linking area to link neighboring data sections, the linking area including at least two frame sync signals, where values of the at least two frame sync signals maintain uniqueness, and to methods and apparatuses for forming, recording, and reproducing the recording medium.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a boss reinforcing apparatus of a portable communication device including a press member, the boss reinforcing apparatus including at least one reinforcing part assembled with a boss that is formed on a case of the portable communication device when the case is insert-injection-molded onto the press member, to reinforce the boss and prevent a screw assembling part formed on the boss from separating from the boss.
Abstract:
Provided is a door basket for a refrigerator. The door basket includes a case, a cover, and a contact member. The case is mounted on a rear side of a refrigerator door and forms a space for receiving food. The cover is axially coupled between both sides of the case and selectively shielding the case through up/down rotation. The contact member is provided on an inner side of the case contacting one end of the cover when the cover is completely opened, and formed of an electrical material to relieve a contact impact with the cover.
Abstract:
A stent that maintains flexibility in a length direction and prevents fatigue failure by securing predetermined durability is disclosed.The stent may includes a plurality of cylindrical members having a hollow cylindrical shape with both ends open, and adapted to decrease a diameter thereof by an external force so as to be mounted in a tubule, and a connecting member connecting cylindrical members confronting each other.
Abstract:
A multi-layered high-density recording medium and an optical power adjusting method therefor. A multi-layered high-density recording medium includes multiple recording layers each of which contains optical power related information for all layers. An optical power adjusting method reading first optical power related information for all layers from a multi-layered optical disk placed in a disk player, storing the read information in another storage device, and making a current optical power apparatus to a moved layer without necessarily having to access the multi-layered optical disk by referring to the stored optical power related information when moving to another layer during record or reproduction.
