Abstract: An air conditioner includes a main body, a blower fan disposed in the main body, a discharge panel including a main outlet configured to discharge air discharged from the blower fan and a plurality of fine outlets provided near the main outlet, an opening and closing member configured to move in forward and backward directions and open and close the main outlet, and a lighting apparatus disposed on a back surface of the opening and closing member and configured to emit light to a back side thereof. Since an area illuminated by the lighting apparatus is changed according to a position of the opening and closing member, a user intuitively identifies an operational state of the air conditioner.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dehumidifier which has an improved structure capable of improving a user convenience of a water container. The dehumidifier includes a main body including an inlet port and an outlet port, a heat exchanger which exchanges heat with air introduced through the inlet port and a water container which accommodates condensate and is separately coupled to the main body in a sliding manner. The water container includes a handle rotatably coupled to the water container.

Abstract: A particle sensing device and an air conditioner including a sensor has a sensing path through which air passes, a flow path housing which accommodates the sensor and guides air, and a flow path switching device to all air suctioned from the outside is guided to the sensing path, or some of the air suctioned from the outside and moving flows back in an obliquely upward direction and flows into the sensing path.

Abstract: An air conditioning equipment includes a housing comprising a heat exchanger therein, a water container mounted to, and dismounted from a receiving portion of the housing and to collect a condensate generated by the heat exchanger, and a valve configured to selectively open and close a discharge port by being interfered with a portion of the water container according to the mounting and the dismounting of the water container to or from the receiving portion of the housing. The valve is inserted within the receiving portion of the housing through the discharge port in order to reduce a protruded length that is interfered by the portion of the water container.

Abstract: An air conditioner includes a dust collecting space so that foreign substances inside the air conditioner may be easily removed. The air conditioner includes a case, a front panel having a plurality of holes formed to discharge air to the front of the case, and a dust container provided inside the case to communicate with some of the plurality of holes.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dehumidifier which has an improved usability of a user. The dehumidifier includes a main body provided with a water container mounting portion on an upper portion of which a water container is mounted, a water container detachably mounted on the water container mounting portion, a water collection tray provided inside the main body to collect water, a heat exchanger provided between the water container mounting portion and the water collection tray and a drain hole provided at the water container mounting portion to discharge water in the water container mounting portion downward.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a metal-oxide/carbon-nanotube composite membrane to be used as a P-type conductive membrane for an organic solar cell, to a method for preparing same, and to an organic solar cell having improved photovoltaic conversion efficiency using the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a metal-oxide/carbon-nanotube composite membrane to be used as a P-type conductive membrane for an organic solar cell, wherein said composite membrane is prepared by dispersing single-walled carbon nanotubes in an organic solvent, adding metal oxides to the mixed solution, dispersing the mixed solution to obtain a composite solution, and depositing the thus-obtained composite solution onto a substrate.

Abstract: A domestic appliance is provided having a control panel in which a remote control signal passing part is formed on a manipulating member, and the manipulating member is integrated with a display window. The control panel includes a switch to be selectively turned on and off by relative movement of a moving part and a fixed part. The manipulating member is configured to be operated in conjunction with the moving part to selectively turn on and off the switch and is provided with the remote control signal passing part to allow a signal from a remote controller to pass. A signal-receiving unit is placed behind the manipulating member to receive the remote control signal through the manipulating member. The domestic appliance of the present invention is effective in reducing costs and time required for separately forming of a signal-receiving window, and miniaturizing products.

Abstract: A hinge apparatus disposes a panel to be opened and closed with respect to a body of an appliance. The hinge apparatus includes a fixing bracket fixed on the body, a supporting bracket fixed on the panel and a hinge shaft fixed on the fixing bracket to rotatably support the supporting bracket. The hinge apparatus also includes an automatic pivot unit to cause the panel to be opened with respect to the body by a predetermined free rotation angle when a locking state between the panel and the body is released. Further, the hinge apparatus includes a manual pivot unit to provide a frictional force between the supporting bracket and the hinge shaft. The frictional force restricts the supporting bracket from being automatically rotated by the automatic pivot unit and also fixes the panel, which is opened further from the predetermined free rotation angle, in a fixed position.

Abstract: A rocker device includes a base having a rocker surface for rocking on a supporting surface, and a wheel device attached to the base and partially extendible out of the bottom of the base to selectively engage with the supporting surface. The base is rockable relative to the supporting surface when the wheel device is disengaged from the supporting surface, and the base is movable relative to the supporting surface when the wheel device is engaged with the supporting surface, such that the rocker device may be moved periodically on the supporting surface.
