  • Patent number: 7239417
    Abstract: A distribution system for digital image content, a method of reproducing digital image content, and a medium recording a program for reproducing digital image content are disclosed. The system comprise: a first distribution means (21) for distributing digital image data (11); a second distribution means (22) for distributing secondary data (12); a first reproduction means (24) for reproducing the digital image data (11); a second reproduction means (25) for reproducing the secondary data (12); and an output means (26) for superimposing the two reproduced data. The secondary data (12) is prepared using a markup language such that a reproduction start point and a reproduction end point correspond to an image frame-specific code for specifying an image of the digital image data (11) and that the secondary data (12) distributable from a different server having a different IP address is reproduced synchronously with the reproduction of the digital image data (11).

  • Patent number: 6289685
    Abstract: A compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an indoor heat exchanger, and the like are connected to each other with refrigerant piping to form a refrigerant circuit in a closed loop configuration. The refrigerant circuit is provided with a four-way switch valve such that the direction of circulation of a refrigerant is reversible. The refrigerant circuit is provided with a refrigerant heater. During a cooling operation, an electromagnetic valve is closed so that the outdoor heat exchanger serves as a condenser to perform a refrigeration cycle operation. During a heating operation, natural gas is caused to burn in the refrigerant heater to heat and evaporate the refrigerant with high-temperature combustion gas. The evaporated refrigerant flows into the indoor heat exchanger, exchanges heat with indoor air, and is condensed, whereby the indoor air is heated.

  • Patent number: 6109060
    Abstract: An air inlet 16 is formed in a rear surface side vertical wall section 10b, or a single surface of an apparatus main body 10, and an air stream path that extends from the air inlet 16 of the rear surface side vertical wall section 10b to air outlets 14a and 14b formed upwardly aslant in an inclined surface section 13 that is also the single surface provided in the opposite direction. In this air stream path are arranged an air-cooling absorber 17, an air-cooling condenser 19 and fans 15a and 15b provided with their fan axes arranged upwardly aslant in correspondence with the air outlets 14a and 14b. With this arrangement, the air-cooling absorption type refrigerating apparatus is made to have an integrated air intake space and a reduced installation area, and an air stream path extending from the air inlet to the air outlets is made to have a reduced draft loss to allow the flow velocity distribution of the air stream of the heat exchange section to be uniformed.
