Proposed is an electric kettle in which a main body is provided with a water level window. The electric kettle of the present disclosure includes the main body configured to receive water or food therein and provided with the water level window through which the level of water contained inside the main body is seen, a lid provided on an open upper side of the main body so as to cover the open upper side of the main body, and a base provided at a lower side of the main body so as to support the main body, wherein a flow path in which a fluid flows is formed in the water level window and has a bottom surface formed to be inclined. According to such a configuration, a fluid remaining inside the water level window decreases.

Electric kettle

A rear-wheel drive apparatus of an eco-friendly vehicle is capable of improving the longitudinal driving force and handling performance of a vehicle by independently driving both rear wheels of the vehicle using a plurality of drive motors.

Driving apparatus for rear wheel of environment-friendly vehicle

A method and system is disclosed that allows a user to easily and intuitively operate applications that require contact information, in a touch device, via a tray item associated with the contact information. The method for operating applications includes: displaying a contact tray comprised of a number of tray items based on contact information, on an execution screen; receiving an interaction to use a tray item in the contact tray; configuring an execution screen for an application based on contact information of the tray item; and operating the application based on the configured execution screen.

Method and system for operating application of a touch device with touch-based input interface

A touch-sensitive device has a touch-based input interface and includes a touch-based folder control for creating, moving or arranging folders in response to an input of a touch-based user interaction. The touch-sensitive device receives an input from a touch-based user interaction on a home screen of the touch sensitive device and creates a new folder in response to at least one object selected by the user interaction. The touch based folder control visually disposes the new folder at a specific place on the home screen.

Touch-sensitive device and touch-based folder control method thereof

A method for coarsely and finely controlling contents via respective main and auxiliary sliders, and a portable terminal supporting the same are provided. The portable terminal includes: a display unit displaying a main slider including a slidable path of a predetermined length for designating a predetermined region of contents and an auxiliary slider extending at least a part of a slidable path of the main slider; a touch screen detecting a signal for selectively displaying the auxiliary slider; and a controller for performing a control operation to display the auxiliary slider according to generation of the signal.

Method for finely controlling contents and portable terminal supporting the same

An image processing method based on zooming for a mobile terminal permits touch zooming on touch screens of a plurality of devices. The image processing method preferably includes: displaying, in response to entering a touch on a touch screen displaying an image, a zooming GUI indicator for image zooming operation; performing image zooming on the touch screen in response to entering a touch point move while retaining the touch; and hiding the zooming GUI indicator from the touch screen in response to entering a touch release.

Image processing method for mobile terminal

A method and apparatus for editing the home screen in a touch-enabled device enables the touch-enabled device to move a content item between pages of the home screen in an easy and intuitive way by: displaying a selected page as a current home screen; detecting a first interaction in the course of utilizing the home screen; displaying, when the first interaction is a page transition interaction, a transition mode screen; detecting a second interaction for moving a content item between pages while the transition mode screen is displayed; and moving the content item to a target page indicated by the second interaction.

Method and apparatus for editing home screen in touch device

Disclosed is an electronic range including a cavity, in which cooking of food is to be conducted, a heater chamber arranged over the cavity, an axial-flow fan arranged in the heater chamber and adapted to generate a downward flow of air, and a heater arranged outside the axial-flow fan and adapted to generate heat of a high temperature. A convection plate is arranged between the axial-flow fan and the heater. The convection plate serves to control a flow of air circulating in the interior of the electronic range to effectively convect the heat generated from the heater into the cavity during an operation of the axial-flow fan causing a repeated procedure of downwardly introducing the downward flow of air into the cavity, and then upwardly moving the flow of air along a side wall of the cavity. In this electronic range, food disposed in the cavity is heated, using reflection heat generated by the convection plates and convection air generated by the axial-flow fan. Accordingly, it is possible to rapidly cook the food. The convection plates serve to supply hot air at a high flow rate because they have an orifice function. Accordingly, a strong flow of air is established in the cavity. This provides an effect of allowing the cavity to have a uniform temperature distribution in the whole portion thereof.

Electronic range

A heating apparatus of a microwave oven includes: a heater installed at an upper portion of a cooking chamber into which foodstuff is received; a ventilating fan installed at one side of the heater, for circulating air inside the cooking chamber to pass across the heater; a panel having a suction hole installed at an upper portion of the cooking chamber, through which the air inside the cooking chamber is drawn into the ventilating fan, and a discharge hole, through which the air which has passed across the heater is again supplied to the cooking chamber; and an air guide unit mounted at an upper side of the panel, for guiding air flow from the ventilating fan to the heater.

Microwave oven with a convectional heating apparatus

A heating apparatus of a microwave oven includes: an upper plate installed at an upper portion of a cooking chamber into which a cooking object is to be received, having a suction hole for sucking air inside the cooking chamber and a discharge hole for discharging air; a first heater installed at the discharge hole side of the upper plate, for generating convection heat; a second heater disposed in the same enclosure as that of the first heater, for generating radiant heat; and a ventilating fan installed at an upper portion of a region where the suction hole of the upper plate is formed, for circulating air inside the cooking chamber across the first and the second heaters.

Microwave oven with radiant and convectional heating apparatus

The present invention relates to a convection fan control method of a microwave oven which is capable of changing discharge direction of the air heated by a heater to a heating object by controlling rotation direction of a convection fan in accordance with types of a dish comprising a cooking time setting process for selecting a dish type of a heating object and setting cooking time, a rotation direction setting process for setting rotating direction of a fan motor which is capable of rotating and reverse-rotating, a fan motor operating process for operating the fan motor in accordance with the set rotating direction, a fan operating process for rotating a fan by the operating of the fan motor, and a cooking process for cooking the heating object for the select cooking time by operating of a heater.
