Abstract: A washing machine with a vibration-absorbing structure for preventing the transfer of the vibration of the driving part is disclosed. The washing machine includes a rotor housing 50 in which a rotor is installed and which is rotatably moved, a driving shaft 20, 31, 33 for rotating a washing tub or a pulsator using a rotational force transferred from the rotor housing, a power transferring member 120 for transferring the rotational force of the rotor housing to the driving shaft, a rotor bushing 110 coupled to the rotor housing and through which the driving shaft penetrates to be slidingly moved, and at least one vibration-absorbing member 140, 150 installed on a path where a power is transferred from the rotor housing to the driving shaft, for absorbing vibration of the rotor housing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a direct-drive washing machine enabling to revolve a pulsator only or both of the pulsator and inner tub in accordance with a load condition such as a laundry quantity, a washing water quantity, etc, a fabric condition, and the like so as to realize an optimal washing condition as well as improve a washing efficiency. The present invention includes a first rotating shaft connected directly between the drive motor and pulsator so as to transfer a drive power of the drive motor to the pulsator directly, a second rotating shaft installed between the drive motor and inner tub separately so as to transfer the drive power of the drive motor to the inner tub selectively, a clutch installed between the second rotating shaft and drive motor so as to connect or cut off the drive power transferred from the drive motor to the inner tub, and a clutch operating device actuating the clutch.

Abstract: An inner tub for a washing machine, which is able to increase a dried degree of laundries and to increase a reliability of the washing machine by improving a structure of an inner tub hub and reinforcing the inner tub to make a spin-drying of high speed possible, comprises an inner tub body; an inner tub base formed on a lower part of the inner tub body; and an inner tub hub coupled on a lower surface of the inner tub base, including a rotating shaft coupling portion to which a rotating shaft for transmitting a rotating force of a driving motor is coupled, a radial supporting portion extended in an outer boundary direction of the rotating shaft coupling portion with a predetermined gap therebetween, and a ring type supporting portion having a predetermined width in an outer circumferential direction of the radial supporting portion formed integrally.

Abstract: An axial flow fan for an air conditioner is disclosed. This axial flow fan is capable of changing the shape of blades by varying a design factor such as a chord length, a sweep angle, etc., generating an enough flowing amount of a fan for implementing an efficient heat radiation of a heat exchanger, and decreasing a noise which occurs during an air flowing operation of the fan, so that it is possible to implement a high efficiency and low noise fan system. The above-described axial flow fan according to the present invention includes a hub engaged to a rotary shaft of a motor, and a plurality of blades engaged to the hub, wherein assuming a coordinate which is obtained by computing a distance R in a radial direction of the blade into a distance from a radius Rh to a radius Rt at a blade tip BT based on a non-dimensional method as “r” (r=(R−Rh)/(Rt−Rh), a maximum camber ratio Hc(r) which is a ratio between a maximum camber Cmax and a chord length 1 has 0.02±0.

Abstract: A horizontal Bridgman single crystal growing apparatus using a direct monitoring electric furnace suitable for a single crystal growing of III-V, II-VI group compound semiconductor materials (InP, CdTe, etc.) including a gallium arsenide (GaAs). The apparatus is composed of: a heater wire being formed around a quartz tube for supporting, a cylindrical double quartz tube arranged with cooling water or gas inlet and outlet for circulation externally and coated with gold thin film on the internal wall surface thereof, thereby the high temperature heating over 1240.degree. C. is possible to obtain within a short period of time and also the cooling is possible, and whole process of the single crystal growing can be observed directly with naked eyes.

Abstract: A vertical gradient freeze single crystal growing apparatus utilizing a direct monitoring furnace which is possible to obtain rapid high temperature heating and uniform temperature distribution by using direct monitoring furnace as a higher temperature part furnace provided with double quartz tube applied with gold thin film, and also capable of observing entire process of single crystal growing directly by naked eye.
