Patent number: 11193677Abstract: An air conditioner and a control method thereof perform cooling through an outlet if room temperature or room humidity is high to reduce the room temperature or the room humidity, and closing the outlet to perform cooling at low velocity through an outlet hole if room temperature or room humidity reaches a predetermined value so that a user can little feel the wind velocity of cooling of the air conditioner, while maintaining indoor space at pleasant temperature or humidity. By performing cooling at low velocity through the outlet hole formed in the lower portion of the air conditioner, it is possible to cool the lower area of indoor space at pleasant temperature when a user is asleep.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2016Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Jong Kweon Ha, Hee-Chan Kang, Jong Woon Kim, Tae Woo Kim, Seung Jun Park, Byoung-Ok Ahn, Hong Seok Jun, Jun Hwang, Kwon Jin Kim, Na Yeong Byeon, Hyeong Joon Seo

Patent number: 10976086Abstract: An air conditioner and a method for controlling the same are disclosed. The air conditioner implements a multistage expansion scheme by implementing serial connection between electronic expansion valves including in the R410A refrigerant-based air conditioner, and thus guarantees an optimum compression ratio in all cooling/heating load regions. Therefore, although cycle characteristics are changed by changing R410A refrigerant to R32 refrigerant, the air conditioner optimizes the cycle simply by controlling a degree of opening of electronic expansion valves, respectively. As described above, since the cycle optimization is implemented using the multistage expansion scheme in which legacy electronic expansion valves are coupled in series, the design modification is minimized without design modification of requisite constituent elements such as a heat exchanger, system implementation is facilitated, resulting in high efficiency in cost and productivity.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2018Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Kil Soo Son, Seok Kyun Kim, Jong-Yeop Baek, Byoung-Ok Ahn, Dong-Ho Cho, Hyun Kook Kim, Hyo-Jun Shin, Sang Ho Yoo, Hong Seok Jun

Patent number: 8242159Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel 1,3-dihydro-5-isobenzofurancarbonitrile derivatives represented by Formula 1, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Also disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing premature ejaculation including the compound. The 1,3-dihydro-5-isobenzofurancarbonitrile derivatives have a short half-life and inhibit the ejaculation process by selectively inhibiting serotonin reuptake via a serotonin reuptake transporter present in a presynaptic neuron. Thus, the compounds are useful in the treatment and prevention of premature ejaculation.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2008Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: Dong-A Pharmaceutical.
