Abstract: Provided is an RED eyelet performing non-contact identification function. The RFID eyelet includes an eyelet washer and eyelet base composed of nonconductive material, and an RED module is interposed between the eyelet washer and eyelet base. The RFID eyelet contains the RFID module in nonconductive material, thereby performing smooth electromagnetic wave communication without disturbance, and the eyelet base is simply coupled. with the eyelet washer by using a slanted projection formed in the eyelet base and a locker formed in the eyelet washer. Also, the RED module can be easily installed by using an internal flange or external flange formed in the inside of the eyelet base or eyelet washer, thereby having a merit of mass production.

The apparatus includes a transmitting/receiving unit-that receives a instruction signal transmitted by a control device, and a control unit in communication with the transmitting/receiving unit that determines whether devices connected to an audio-video (AV) network can be operated according to the instruction signal that is received, wherein the control device includes a first button that is operable to display a list menu that lists the devices connected to the AV network on a display, and a second button that is operable to display a function menu of at least one function corresponding to the devices on the display.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing multimedia contents is provided. The apparatus includes an analyzing unit that analyzes a quantity ratio corresponding to a type of first multimedia content included in an album, a mood code generating unit that generates a mood code corresponding to the quantity ratio as the analyzed result, a content abstracting unit that abstracts a list of second multimedia content corresponding to the generated mood code, and a sending/receiving unit that sends at least one of the list and the second multimedia content included in the list.

Abstract: A mobile communication terminal with a display shortcut key and a method of enabling the same is provided. In the mobile communication terminal, when a display key button is switched on, which select a function of the display key button to be performed and a display image to be displayed on the display key button from a menu which enables the function of the key button and the display image to be selected, and register the function of the display key button and the display image in a database, and thereby may perform the registered communication terminal.

Abstract: The present invention is related to an extract of Cucurbitaceae family plant or the purified extract isolated therefrom having anti-adipogenic and anti-obesity activity, and a composition comprising the same. The extract of Cucurbitaceae family plant of the present invention showed potent reducing activity of body weight, decreasing effect on the blood triglyceride and cholesterol level, activating activity of PPAR ? and ?, reducing activity of the gene expression of stearoyl-CoA desaturase, and preventing activity from the adipogenesis of precursor fat cells with no toxicity, therefore, those extract can be useful in treating or preventing obesity and adipogenesis-involved diseases as a medicine or health care food.

Abstract: The present invention is related to an alcohol compound isolated from the extract of Cucurbitaceae family plant having anti-adipogenic and anti-obesity activity, and a composition comprising the same. The compound showed potent reducing activity of body weight, decreasing effect on the blood triglyceride and cholesterol level, activating activity of PPAR alpha and preventing activity from the adipogenesis of precursor fat cells with no toxicity, therefore, those compound can be useful in treating or preventing obesity and adipogenesis-involved diseases as a medicine or health care food.

Abstract: A heat curing device includes supports positioned in a chamber to support a substrate, the supports having sections, and protrusion structures formed on the sections of the supports to contact a dummy area of the substrate, wherein the supports may be rotated with respect to a horizontal axis. The sections of the supports may have a polygonal structure with the protrusion structures are formed on the polygonal sections of the supports, so that a plurality of protrusion structure patterns can be formed on one support. Since the supports are rotatable, the protrusion structure patterns supporting a substrate may be readily changed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for adjusting a direction of wind in a cooling and warming system of a vehicle comprising a body in which a guide groove having a spring is formed at left and right sides, and a switch having an engaging hole at an upper center portion is formed, and an elongated hole is formed in a lower side of the engaging hole, and an adjusting plate in which an engaging protrusion is protruded from the upper and lower sides of the back surface, and a support protrusion into which an upper end of the spring is inserted is protruded from a lower surface of both sides, wherein the adjusting plate is engaged with a guide groove of the body.

Abstract: The present invention provides a polymer of Formula (4) or (5) as manufactured by polymerizing alkylmethacrylate of the formula (1) or its salt with 2-metacroxyethyl triammonium chloride of Formula (2) or vinyl monomer of phosphonium salt of the formula (3), and further provides a photochromic polymer matrix manufactured by blending the said polymer as the supporter with a known photochromic organic compound. Further, the present invention enables a glass or a mirror, of which the transmittance and/or the reflectance can be adjusted, to be manufactured by coating it with the said photochromic polymer matrix in a given thickness. In the case of the glass manufactured by using the matrix of the present invention, it can be used in the field requiring adjustment the transmittance of light depending upon a weather condition, including a building or a car glass, a sunroof and the like.
