Publication number: 20240068735Abstract: A refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door opening/closing the cabinet and having an opening that is penetrated in a front/rear direction, a transparent panel assembly mounted to cover the opening and through which the inside of the refrigerant is seen, and a lighting member provided in the door or the cabinet to brighten a rear side of the transparent panel assembly. The transparent panel assembly includes a front panel defining an outer appearance of a front surface, a rear panel defining an outer appearance of a rear surface, a spacer made of a metal material and disposed between the front panel and the rear panel to define a periphery of the transparent panel assembly. A heater mounting part on which a heater is mounted is disposed on the spacer, and when the heater generates heat, one side of the front panel, which comes into contact with the spacer, is heated.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Junghwan KIM, Chanuk KANG, Hyuk KWON, Sangmyung LEE, Ikkyu LEE

Patent number: 9901370Abstract: A tube insertion device which inserts a tube into a line path to perform an operation has an elongated hollow tube, an end effector connected to a front end of the tube such that the direction of the end effector is changed with respect to the tube, a plurality of wires connected to the end effector and extended into the tube and a tension controller controlling tensions of the plurality of wires. The tension controller controls tensions of a pair of wires facing each other in the opposite directions, in order to change the direction of the end effector.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2013Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: Korea Institute of Science and TechnologyInventors: Keri Kim, Sung Chul Kang, Soojun Lee, Woosub Lee, Sangmyung Kim, Suhyeon Gim

Patent number: 9526582Abstract: An endoscope robot inserted into a duct to perform a predetermined work includes a flexible first tube body, a joint structure coupled to an end of the first tube body, and an end-effector connected to the joint structure so that location and direction of the end-effector are adjusted by the joint structure. The joint structure includes a fixed arm coupled to an end of the first tube body, and a plurality of pivotal arms arranged in order in a row from the fixed arm and pivotally connected to each other. The first tube body curves and linearly moves in the duct to move the end-effector to a working position. The plurality of pivotal arms is pivoted at the working position to adjust location and direction of the end-effector.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2014Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: KOREA INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYInventors: Keri Kim, Sung Chul Kang, Woosub Lee, Sangmyung Kim, Soojun Lee
