  • Publication number: 20090310597
    Abstract: A method for handling CS (Circuit Switching) calls in a VCC (Voice Call Continuity), a VCC application server and an apparatus thereof, wherein first, the VCC application identifies whether a called party number of CS domain calls routed thereto is in an international format, secondly, the VCC application may request to convert the format of the called party number into the international format (referred to as ‘routable number’) if the called party number is not in the international format, thirdly, a translation entity may convert the called party number into the routable number by adding an international prefix suitable for a current location of the originating terminal based on both the called party number and location information on the originating terminal, and then the calls may continue in an IMS domain or a CS domain by the routable number.

  • Publication number: 20090241267
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a control method of a washing machine that performs washing using bubbles. The control method may generate a large number of bubbles using a small amount of water to reduce water consumption and transmit detergent water to laundry placed in the washing machine effectively and rapidly using high-concentration detergent on the surfaces of the bubbles, thereby reducing time and energy consumption and improving washing efficiency. The bubbles may act as a cushion to reduce friction between laundry articles, thereby preventing expensive laundry (such as wool or silk) from being damaged due to the friction between the laundry articles and between the laundry and water and preventing damage to and deformation of general laundry when washing the laundry.

  • Patent number: 7490491
    Abstract: A washing machine in which the poor heat-resistance laundry is sufficiently wet so that a plurality of water curtain layers are formed at the laundry, thereby preventing the laundry from being stained and damaged when the laundry contacts the steam. According to the present invention, cold water is supplied simultaneously with injection of the steam so that the real temperature of the steam contacting the surfaces of the laundry is lowered, thereby preventing the laundry from being stained and damaged when the laundry contacts the steam.
