Abstract:
An information manager includes a network interface, a user interface, and a controller. The network interface establishes a connection with at least one content provider server through a network. The user interface receives an input signal selecting an icon for display. The controller controls output of the selected icon for display along with an image corresponding to the selected icon. The selected icon corresponds to the content provider and is displayed with one or more other icons that correspond to additional content providers, and the image is based on information received through the network interface from the content provider.
Abstract:
Provided are an exterior film for a home appliance and a method of adhering the exterior film. The exterior film is formed by performing a half cutting process on a portion of a through part disposed on an exterior part of the home appliance, so that the portion of the through part can be removed while a support protective film is removed, and the rest thereof is cut out after the removing of the support protective film.
Abstract:
Provided is a network system, which includes an advanced metering infrastructure, a communication device, and an energy management system. The advanced metering infrastructure is configured to measure energy supplied from a power supply source. The communication device is configured to communicate energy information related with the energy. The energy management system recognizes the energy information to control driving of an electric product. The energy management system limits a function of at least one part of power consumption units constituting the electric product, based on whether the recognized energy information is an on-peak time period. Thus, the concentration of power consumptions can be removed, so that a power supplier can effectively manage power consumptions and a consumer can save electricity costs and energy.
Abstract:
Provided is a control device for controlling an electric product. The control device includes a power source unit, an input unit, an output unit, a communication unit, and a control unit. The power source unit supplies power to the electric product. The input unit is configured to input an operation mode related with a power saving driving of the electric product or input a command related with a driving method of the electric product. The output unit outputs information corresponding to the command input through the input unit or information related with driving of the electric product. The communication unit communicates information related with energy supplied to the electric product. The control unit controls an operation of the electric product based on a command related with the operation mode or a course of the driving. The operation mode includes a normal operation mode and a power saving operation mode.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an outdoor unit of an air-conditioner formed in a state where a grill part of a discharge grill is tilted based on a rotating orbit of a fan. Therefore, in the present invention, the flow resistance of air passing through the discharge grill can be minimized.
Abstract:
The present invention includes a cooking appliance with an enamel composition. The enamel composition includes a heat resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance, and pollution resistance, such that the cooking appliance withstands high temperature, acid or alkali and is readily cleaned.
Abstract:
Provided are an information leakage prevention apparatus configured to prevent the leakage of information such as a password, and an information input apparatus including the information leakage prevention apparatus.
Abstract:
A refrigerator is provided. According to the refrigerator, a home bar door axially coupled to a lower end of a door has the same width as a left-right width of the door and extends up to the lower end of the door. Thus, an entire outer appearance of the refrigerator may be improved, and also, usage convenience may be improved.
Abstract:
A backlight unit includes a plurality of light sources emitting light in a direct direction with a predetermined orientation angle, and a light guide panel having a light incident section and a light emitting section. The light incident section has a first surface to receive light emitted from one or more of the light sources in the first direction and the light emitting section is to emit light received from the light incident section in a second direction. In addition, a height of an elevated structure, extending from an upper surface of the light incident section to an upper surface of the light emitting section, is greater than or substantially equal to a height of a distal end of the light emitting section.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a ventilation system. According to a ventilation system of an embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to supply constant air flow to each floor or home, regardless of changes in environment outside a building, by connecting a ventilator to a center duct that sucks external air and supplies it to each floor or home, or sucks internal air of each floor of home and discharges it to the outside the building.
