| 20080217323 | HEATING DEVICE - A heating device having an improved heat resistance structure is provided. The heating device may include a heating element that generates heat, and an elastic conductive part that applies electricity to the heating element. A connector may be provided between the elastic conductive part and the heating element to preclude direct contact between the heating element and the elastic conductive part. The heating element may be fixed to one side of the connector, and the elastic conductive part may be fixed to the other side of the connector to allow current applied from the elastic conductive part to flow to the heating element. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20100193502 | ELECTRIC HEATER - Disclosed is the electric heater including a base, and a heating unit having a plurality of unit heating elements disposed on a plate surface of the base and at least one of heating connection portions configured to heat and conductively connecting the unit heating elements to each other and non-heating connection portions configured not to heat and conductively connecting the unit heating elements to each other, thereby preventing a thermal stress concentration, thus to prevent damage to the heating unit and to enhance its output. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110088199 | Steam Generator, Method of Controlling the Same, Cleaner Using the Same and Method of Controlling The Cleaner - A steam generator is provided that includes an external case having an opening that allows an internal space to communicate with an external environment. Additionally, the steam generator may be provided with a supplier that supplies water to the internal space, a heater provided to the opening to generate steam, an outlet pipe having a first side that communicates with the external environment to discharge steam, and a steam discharge controller provided to a second side of the outlet pipe to open/close the outlet pipe according to a presence or absence of a discharge of the steam. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110266879 | APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING WIRELESS ENERGY USING META-MATERIAL STRUCTURES HAVING ZERO REFRACTIVE INDEX - Disclosed herein is an apparatus for transmitting and receiving wireless energy using meta-material structures having a zero refractive index. The apparatus includes a wireless energy transmission unit and a wireless energy reception unit. When external power is applied thereto, the wireless energy transmission unit generates wireless energy to be wirelessly transmitted, and then wirelessly transmits wireless energy, which is normally propagated radially when the generated wireless energy is transmitted, using a magnetic resonance method while concentrating the wireless energy in one direction. | 11-03-2011 |

| 20100282837 | METHOD OF PROTECTING AN INDIVIDUAL'S PRIVACY WHEN PROVIDING SERVICE BASED ON ELECTRONIC TAG - A technology for providing a service based on an electronic tag. A personalized service provider issues a new code that replaces a code recorded on an electronic tag which is attached to a product purchased by a purchaser, sets a privacy policy of the purchaser, authenticates the new code and purchaser information, and provides a service associated with the product in a limited manner according to the set privacy policy when a person who accesses the personalized service provider is not the purchaser of the product. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20110096785 | VIRTUALIZATION-SUPPORTING PROGRAMMABLE PLATFORM DEVICE AND METHOD OF TRANSFERRING PACKET - Provided are a virtualization-supporting programmable platform device and a method of transferring a packet. The method includes, when a switch receives a packet including a destination sliver identifier (ID) and a virtual interface (VIF) ID, transferring, at the switch, the received packet to a sliver selected on the basis of the destination sliver ID, and transferring, at the sliver receiving the packet, the received packet to one of VIFs of the sliver on the basis of the VIF ID. Accordingly, a programmable platform or router supporting network virtualization can identify IDs of slivers, which are resources allocated to users in the future Internet, and VIFs connected to the respective slivers. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110099563 | NETWORK APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING NETWORK VIRTUALIZATION - A network apparatus and a network virtualization support method. The network apparatus may include a software-based virtualization unit to generate a software-based virtualization slice in association with another network apparatus; a hardware-based virtualization unit to generate a hardware-based virtualization slice in association with another network apparatus; and a virtualization control unit to activate the software-based virtualization unit or the hardware-based virtualization unit based on the user information of the user who requests generation of the virtualization slice. | 04-28-2011 |
