  • Patent number: 10371403
    Abstract: A display device which displays operation information of an air conditioner in which an outdoor machine including an outdoor heat exchanger and an indoor machine including an indoor heat exchanger are connected. The display device includes a control unit that determines whether or not abnormality occurs in the outdoor machine or the indoor machine when the air conditioner operates, and a display unit which is controlled by the control unit so as to display time information and to display a plurality of operation information display regions for displaying operation information corresponding to the time information, in line. In a case where the control unit determines that the abnormality has occurred in the outdoor machine or the indoor machine, the control unit controls the display unit to display operation information of the outdoor machine or the indoor machine in which the abnormality has occurred, in the operation information display region.

  • Patent number: 9585819
    Abstract: A moisturizing apparatus includes an ion generating device, a mist generating device, and a control device. The ion generating device generates positive ions and negative ions bound to water molecules from the air by an electrical discharge in the atmosphere. The mist generating device reduces the liquid to fine particles in the form of mist and sprays the liquid in the form of mist. The moisturizing apparatus moisturizes the skin or hair, through combined use of application of ions from the ion generating device and spraying of the mist from mist generating device, toward the skin or hair.

  • Publication number: 20170010014
    Abstract: An air conditioner test operation application which allows to input control inputs for test operation of an air conditioner from a mobile terminal. Through input of a prescribed control input to a control input unit of the mobile terminal, model information pertaining to units that belong to a prescribed group to undergo test operation is not displayed on the display unit of the mobile terminal by the controller of the mobile terminal, whereas model information pertaining to the other group is displayed; and through input of a display switching control input to the control input unit of the mobile terminal, the model information pertaining to the other group that was not being displayed is displayed on the display unit of the mobile terminal by the controller of the mobile terminal, whereas the model information pertaining to the one group that was being displayed ceases to be displayed.
