Abstract: An encoding/decoding apparatus and method for controlling a channel signal is disclosed, wherein the encoding apparatus may include an encoder to encode an object signal, a channel signal, and rendering information for the channel signal, and a bit stream generator to generate, as a bit stream, the encoded object signal, the encoded channel signal, and the encoded rendering information for the channel signal.

Abstract: An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes: a housing having an inside divided into an inflow space, a heat exchange space, and an outflow space, which are straightly arranged, and having a plurality of discharge ports, which communicates with an interior, at the inflow space; a blowing unit disposed at the inflow space of the housing and configured to blow air; a heat exchange unit disposed at the heat exchange space of the housing and configured to adjust a temperature of conditioned air by exchanging heat with air; and an opening-closing door disposed at the outflow space of the housing and configured to open and close the plurality of discharge ports such that conditioned air at an adjusted temperature selectively flows to the plurality of discharge ports. The air conditioning device adjusts the temperature of conditioned air for respective modes and reduces a flow resistance of air.

Abstract: An electron gun sealing apparatus comprises a bulb supporting means for supporting a bulb, a first up/down means for raising and lowering an electron gun, which is vertically positioned below the bulb, a heating means arranged around the neck of the bulb to heat the neck and the stem of an electron gun, a second up/down means for raising and lowering the heating means to a certain height in relation to the neck, and a revolving means for rotating the heating means with respect to the electron gun supporter. Since the sealing by the sealing apparatus is performed by rotating the heating means, the bulb is free from centrifugal force, preventing displaced sealing of the neck. Also, thinning and cracking at the seal is prevented by an accurate position control and a sealing flame adjustment. Further, this automatically performed sealing operation simplifies the sealing, reduces labor, and improves productivity.

Abstract: A dust cleaning nozzle for cleaning a cathode ray tube comprises a pipe with an axially extending hollow part, and an ejecting angle changing mechanism attached to one end of the pipe. The nozzle, after insertion through the neck of the cathode ray tube, changes the ejecting angle of air ejected from the ejecting angle chainging mechanism with respect to the axis of the pipe so as to be efficient in removing dust from the tube.
