Abstract: Disclosed is an indoor unit of an air conditioner, in which discharge units respectively provided on upper and lower portions of the indoor unit have an improved discharge structure such that the discharge units are interchangeable, to increase cooling efficiency regardless of installation position of the indoor unit. The indoor unit includes a cabinet; a first discharge unit being detachably provided on the cabinet and configured to discharge air in a forward direction; and a second discharge unit separated from the first discharge unit, being detachably provided on the cabinet and configured to discharge air in the oblique direction, the first discharge unit and the second discharge unit being interchangeable according to a height of a position at which the cabinet is installed. The indoor unit of the air conditioner sets the optimum direction of discharged air, thus increasing the cooling efficiency of an indoor space.

Abstract: A filter comprising a filter element with a filtering medium, mounted in a housing having a first end and a second end, and a passageway A removable generator to provide heated fluid for regenerating the filter element is to be connected to the housing adjacent the second end The second end of the filter element is constructed so as to permit a first portion of the heated fluid to flow toward the first end of the filter element, and the passageway is to allow a second portion of the heated fluid to flow from the second end to the first end, bypassing the filtering medium A flow director is positioned adjacent to the first end of the filter element for directing the second portion of the heated fluid discharged from the passageway toward the first end of the filter element.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a photocurable and antistatic resin composition for coating an optical fiber, comprising (A) a photopolymerizable urethane acrylate oligomer, (B) a reactive monomer having at least one (meth)acrylate or vinyl group, (C) a photoinitiator, and (D) an antistatic agent compatible with the oligomer and monomer components, and optionally (E) a pigment or dye. The coating of the inventive composition can increase the productivity of the optical fiber, and provide an optical fiber having a uniform coating layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a capsule type endoscope with embedded memory. More specifically, the present invention relates to a capsule type endoscope with embedded memory, which is equipped with flash memory and does not need a transmitter for wireless communication or a receiver, to reduce power consumption of the capsule type endoscope and improve convenience in use.

Abstract: Disclosed is a capsule type endoscope with an insertion tube, which is capable of improving diagnosis and treatment of a patient's disease by attaching manipulation wires, an electric power line, and a signal line to a conventional capsule type endoscope. A specific embodiment of the present invention comprises and is characterized by a capsule containing a photographic system for acquiring images from the internal cavities of the human body; at least one manipulation wire connected to the capsule; an electric power line and a signal line connected to the capsule; an insertion tube for protecting the manipulation wire, the electric power line and the signal line; and a connection section for connecting the capsule with the insertion tube.

Abstract: A turbofan integrally formed with a shroud and a method of manufacturing the same. The turbofan includes a rotating plate rotated by a driving motor, a plurality of blades having first ends connected to an outer peripheral portion of a front surface of the rotating plate while being arranged in a radial pattern, a shroud having an annular shape and being integrally formed with second ends of the blades, in which the shroud has an inner diameter equal to or larger than a diameter of the rotating plate, and an auxiliary rotating plate having a diameter larger than the diameter of the rotating plate and being fixed to the rotating plate. Since the inner diameter of the shroud is equal to or larger than the rotating plate, the turbofan is integrally formed with the shroud by a mold.

Abstract: The present invention provides a robust control method for maintaining a melt level at a constant value in a mold in a twin roll strip casting process. In the twin roll strip casting process, whether using a stopper system (3), which is provided in a tundish (2) to supply melt into the mold, or using a camera system, which measures the melt level in the mold, the robust control method of the present invention controls the melt level both using an advanced controller, which controls, at an initial stage of the casting process or when a disturbance arises, the target value of the melt level such that the target level corresponds to the performance characteristics of the melt level control system, and using a feedback controller, which maintains the melt level at a constant value under normal casting conditions.

Abstract: A UV-curable and foamable resin composition comprising a photopolymerizable urethane acrylate oligomer, a photopolymerable monomer, a photo polymerization initiator, a photolytic foaming agent selected from an azo compound, a combination of sulonium salt and an inorganic carbonate, and a mixture thereof, and a photolysis catalyst is useful for coating a fiber or ribbon bundle to be applied to an air blown fiber system.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for drawing a strip initially cast by means of a twin roll strip casting apparatus. The method comprises a roll gap maintenance step where roll gap is maintained, a casting initiation step where a stopper is disengaged from a tundish hole so that molten metal is poured into a space between the rolls, and the rolls are rotated at speed v0 of each of the rolls if the position of the stopper is higher than the actually poured position of the molten metal, a casting speed acceleration step where a roll repulsive force is detected when the molten metal is solidified to the leader strip and passes between the rolls, and the casting speed is accelerated if the roll repulsive force reaches a load threshold, and a normal control step where the casting speed is detected, and if the casting speed reaches a target value.

Abstract: Provided is a molding apparatus for molding simultaneously a plurality of semiconductor devices. The molding apparatus includes a mold, a plurality of plungers, and a plunger block. The mold is prepared to mold a plurality of semiconductor devices. The plurality of plungers are plunged into the mold to inject a molding compound that will encapsulate the semiconductor devices in the mold. The plurality of plungers are assembled with the plunge block to operate at the same time. Each of the plurality of plungers includes a load sensor and/or a contact sensor, so as to sense separately whether the plungers are improperly operating.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a GI (graded index) plastic optical fiber preform having a radial refractive index gradient, the refractive index increasing gradually from the outer periphery of the preform toward the center thereof, comprising inserting a 1st plastic tube (inside diameter: d1i, outside diameter: d1o) (111) made of a first polymer (refractive index: n1) in a cylinder reactor (inside diameter: d0i, d1o?d0i) and inserting a 2nd plastic tube (inside diameter: d2i, outside diameter d2o, d2o?d1i) (112) made of a second polymer (refractive index: n2, n2?n1) in the 1st plastic tube, the reactor, the 1st and 2nd plastic tubes are positioned coaxially, injecting a precursor of a third polymer (refractive index: n?, n??n2) into the 2nd plastic tube, injecting a precursor of a fourth polymer (refractive index: n?, n1?n??n2) into the space between the 1st and 2nd plastic tubes.
