Abstract: The present invention provides an excellent display apparatus effectively using the display area of the object/window in the inactive state existing on the display screen and a method for controlling the display apparatus. At least one object/window is displayed on the display screen of a display apparatus in a bitmap manner in accordance with the present invention. A determination as to whether a predetermined object/window displayed on the display screen is in an active state, or not, is always made, and the display contents of the predetermined object/window is switched in accordance with the result of the determination. For example, if the predetermined object/window is in the active state, a regular display contents of the predetermined object/window is displayed, and if the predetermined object/window is in the inactive state, another information, such as an advertisement information, is displayed.

Abstract: An apparatus for preparing ice creams, wherein a freezing cylinder is constituted such that a liquid mix supplied from a mix tank is stirred in a stirring apparatus that is installed in the inside of the freezing cylinder, and refrigerated so as to complete ice creams, any amount of which can be dispensed through a dispensing port. For the cleaning and sterilization of the inside of the cylinder, the inside is heated by reversing the flow of heat media which are to be circulated through the refrigerating part of the cylinder to dissolve and automatically withdraw the ice creams in the cylinder, then cleaned several times by supplying and discharging hot water, to and from the inside, and after that sterilized by supplying hot water to the inside, and discharging the water from it.
