Abstract: An electromagnetic valve having a flow control function. A valve body has an inlet, an outlet, a valve chest, and a valve plate contained inside the valve chest. The valve plate opens and closes a valve seat using a movable core in order to control the flow rate of water and to prevent backflow. A first channel is disposed inside the outlet. A flow control means, configured as a single unit, is inserted into the outlet, and includes a mover for opening and closing a flow of water by being detached from and brought into contact with the first channel, a stator disposed coaxially with the mover. The stator allows the mover to be elastic and freely movable using a restoring element. A flow rate control element is supported on the stator, and has a predetermined interval from the stator to form a second channel.

Abstract: A flow controllable connector for home appliances, which diverges or extends a passage of fluid by fastening an inlet having a first passage and an outlet having a second passage to tubes using fastening devices. The connector includes a control device disposed between the inlet and the outlet in order to prevent the fluid from flowing back as well as to control a flow rate. The control device performs both the function of preventing the fluid from flowing back and the function of controlling the pressure of the fluid. This makes it possible to prevent an electric/electronic sub-assembly from malfunctioning or abnormally operating, thereby increasing the longevity and reliability thereof.

Abstract: An electromagnetic valve. A body includes a valve chest disposed between an inlet and an outlet. A valve seat is opened and closed by a movable core. A lock ring is fitted into the inlet. A finishing member closes the outer end of the inlet, and in cooperation with the stator, forcibly fixes the lock ring and guides the tube to be inserted. A chamber is defined by an extension of the finishing member in the direction away from the inlet. A latch element adjacent to the lock ring limits the deformation of the lock ring in response to changes in the pressure of water. A support element protrudes from the outer circumference of the tube to support the rear end of the latch element. The locking ring is prevented from being deformed, so that the coupling of the tube becomes more structurally stable and secure.

Abstract: In an electromagnetic water supply valve, a body includes a chamber having a valve seat disposed between an inlet and an outlet. A diaphragm and a diaphragm holder are stacked on the valve seat to define a pressure chamber. An electromagnet unit is disposed on the body, closing the pressure chamber. The valve controls the supply of water in response to the electromagnet unit, so that water is introduced into or discharged from the pressure chamber. An electric circuit-forming coil is wound on a bobbin. The lower end of the bobbin is hermetically coupled to the diaphragm. A magnetic induction member seals the upper portion of a hollow section of the bobbin, and generates magnetic force in cooperation with the coil. A plunger is driven to open and close the water supply passage. The electromagnetic water supply valve increases electrical efficiency with a decreased number of components.

Abstract: New design of wind and or water mill, which utilizes natural motion to create electricity. Using a spiral shape design compared to the traditional wind and or water mill designs already in use today. Using a spiral shape design with a tapering angled blade and or size and or a guide, the blades should allow for less drag and increase wind and or water spiral affect efficiency. And the Spiral Design can also be used to replace traditional propellors, efficiently utilizing the motion for thrust.

Abstract: A power-saving electromagnetic water supply valve includes a valve body, an electromagnet unit, and a first valve defining therein first and second water passages, the second water passage being opened and closed by a second valve. The first valve partitions the upper section of a chamber to form a pressure chamber, is attached to and detached from a valve seat of the chamber, and maintains a closed circuit state by the pressure of water. The water inlet and the pressure chamber of the valve body are connected directly to each other, thereby defining a common space. The water inlet and the pressure chamber are separated from each other by the base element when a filter retracts into the water inlet. A portion of water introduced toward the water inlet is supplied into the pressure chamber via the filter and the first water passage of the base element.

The solenoid valve includes a constant flow control member having a chamber at one side of a connecting pipe branched from a body which has an outlet port, the chamber temporarily accommodating water and quantitatively supplying the water by using a flow control sheet, and a low-pressure flow control member tightly installed in an inlet port which communicates with the connecting pipe of the chamber, the low-pressure flow control member having a hollow body to enclose the flow control sheet. A first flow channel is formed between an outer periphery of the low-pressure flow control member and an inner periphery of the inlet port, and a second flow channel is formed by a hole of the low-pressure flow control member, a passage of the flow control sheet, and a hole of the resilient member.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dispenser installed on a door of a refrigerator to dispense a liquid or an ice. The dispenser for the refrigerator supplies a fluid to a fluid container or an ice maker from a fluid supply member W through an operation process of a plurality of supply lines and regulation valves. An outlet line of the fluid container is divided into a main outlet line and an auxiliary outlet line, in which the main outlet line and the auxiliary outlet line are equipped with a main switching button and the auxiliary switching button, respectively, which are operated in response to an output signal of a flow rate measuring device. The discharge amount of the fluid can be constantly maintained by selecting either of the main outlet line and the auxiliary outline provided in the fluid container of the refrigerator, irrespective of the pressure in the fluid supply system, thereby improving its use convenience and solving the inconvenience of overflowing and delay.

Abstract: A paper holder assembly has an axle coaxially positionable to extend axially outwardly from axially opposite bases of a platen drum providing a circumferential outer surface disposed between the opposite bases, the axle has circumferential grooves terminated by corresponding flanges. A pair of brackets each having three arms joined together in a unitary monolithic structure with first and second arms defining a centrally disposed recess having spaced-apart curved sides are positioned to ride along corresponding ones of the circumferential grooves. A pivot pivotally connects the second arms to the opposite bases of the platen drum, and a paper holder extending from the distal portion of the third arm holds edges of sheets of paper against the circumferential outer surface projecting axially inwardly from distal ends of the third arms across the circumferential outer surface. Springs bias the bracket toward a first orientation relative to the pivot.
