Abstract: An energy effective switching power supply apparatus and an energy effective method thereof. The energy effective switching power supply apparatus includes a power transforming part having first and second coils to induce a voltage to the second coil using interactions between the first and the second coils with respect to the input voltage, a power outputting part to output a sensing signal when it is determined that a first DC voltage output by rectifying and smoothing the voltage induced to the second coil is greater than or equal to a reference voltage level, and a switching controlling part to adjust a switching frequency of a switching device to interrupt a current flowing in the first coil of the power transforming part when the sensing signal is received. Accordingly, a switching loss is controlled and an energy loss is reduced.

Abstract: A switching mode power supply (SMPS) with an active load detection function which supplies AC power input to a primary coil of a transforming element, then to a secondary coil of the transforming element, and then rectifies and outputs the AC power is provided. The SMPS comprises a controlling unit for controlling switching frequency by changing the time constant of a switching unit depending on the current and reducing the amount of power supplied to the primary coil of the transforming element. The current at a terminal of a resistor can be controlled under a cross condition, and the current flowing to the resistor can be controlled when in a normal state, thereby preventing energy loss which always occur in the resistor. The switching frequency during a standby state can be reduced to reduce switching loss.

Abstract: Disclosed is a toroidal line filter with coils wound through various winding processes such that an inductance characteristic for a certain frequency can be improved through changes in current flowing direction and/or area, whereby the toroidal line filter can compensate for a poor EMI characteristic at the certain frequency without adding extra components such as an inductor or a capacitor. The toroidal line filter comprises an annular core and coils wound around the annular core. The coils are wound in such a way that first winding is wound over a predetermined partial area of the annular core, which is not the entire area of the annular core, and then second winding is wound over the remaining area of the annular core.

The heater lamp control pulse signal includes a control unit to control a drive-timing of the heater lamp based on the heater lamp control pulse signal. Thus, the heater lamp control apparatus minimizes a flickering phenomenon as well as an amount of electric power consumed in a heater lamp.

Abstract: A removably connected power supply for supplying external power to an electronic product. An output unit supplies power to the electronic product. A switching unit selects whether to supply the power to the output unit, and a switching apparatus turns on the switching unit in response to being connected with the electronic product and turns off the switching unit in response to being disconnected from the electronic product. The switching apparatus includes a switch which performs a switching operation in response to the connection or disconnection with the electronic product from the output unit. A switching element controls operation of the switching unit in response to the operation of the switch. Thus, the power supply is operated in a power saving mode and unnecessary power consumption and damage caused by voltage or current spikes are prevented.

Abstract: A centrifugal blower comprising a siroco fan having a plurality of blowing fans, and a scroll casing forming a spiral draft passage at an external side of the siroco fan, where a siroco fan is so mounted that spiral centers (02,03) comprising the draft passage of the scroll casing are detached from a center (01) of the siroco fan at a predetermined distance, such that a spiral curve of the scroll casing is simply changed to a non-linear curve to thereby enable to increase a flow rate even at a low revolution of the siroco fan and to reduce noise.
