A karaoke home entertainment center for streamlining karaoke show; reduce stress, problems and time pressure on the KJ & to prevent piracy. The inventive device includes Ultimate Karaoke Book, Karaoke Rental Systems, ProPlayer, Karaoke Shoppe Download Center, Karaoke Burning Station, Downloadable Karaoke CD+G Player, Video Library Pro, DRM and Licensing encryption engine, Pre-manufactured CD DRM. The Book eliminates the majority of KJ typing when creating or updating their book. Book with minimal player forms the Karaoke Rental System. ProPlayer incorporates super encryption Dongle or soft encryption, which permits “back-up” copy but can only be used with the original dongle. Karaoke Shoppe Download Center consists of basic computer system that can access our on-line database or come pre-loaded with encrypted songs. Karaoke burning Station Kiosk is either counter-top or stand-alone kiosks that can contain and deliver cds. Downloadable Karaoke CD+G Player is a quality karaoke player that doesn't require a special piece of hardware (other than a personal computer). It can download and play karaoke songs and be given away for free. Video Library Pro is an adaption of the book and player above designed for video professionals. There are two forms of DRM and Licensing encryption engine that perform the function of file protection. Together they form the Karaoke Home Entertainment Center.

A system and a method of providing on-line subscription services from a subscription server to a user of a mobile terminal through the Internet. The subscription server receives from the mobile terminal user-specific information relating to the user's mobile terminal capabilities, the user's preferences of products, and the user's financial information. The subscription server sends to the mobile terminal at least locally or remotely retrieved information related to a product based on the user-specific information. The subscription server receives from the mobile terminal a request indicating whether the user wishes to either cancel or purchase the product. The subscription server cancels the product when the user indicates so, and downloads the product to the mobile terminal when the user desires to purchase the product.

A packaging assembly includes a frame member and a retention member which is not permanently affixed to the frame member. The frame member can include a variety of features which allow the retention member to be tightened around an article to be packaged and thus protected from shocks and impacts during transport, display, and / or retail use. The retention member can be formed as a sleeve or with pockets for engaging the frame member.

A drying device for a washing machine includes a rotatable drum configured to house laundry items; a tub having the drum therein; a driving unit on the tub and connected to the drum, configured to drive the drum; a drying unit configured to store liquid water and circulate air in the drum to remove moisture from the laundry; and a control unit configured to control operations of the drying unit.

An image display system includes a reflecting screen that has a reflecting surface. The reflecting surface includes hologram which reflects narrow bands of spectrum of incident lights toward desired direction. A projection display system includes a reflecting mirror(s) with hologram so that the image can be projected nearly vertical or short distance. This invention can be used as a head-up-display with improved brightness and eliminating ghost noise.

A device (1) according to the invention for externally fixing broken bones (62, 62′) of a patient, particularly the extremities, comprises a support (11) composed of a plurality of joint elements (2, 2) that are stringed together, wherein said support can be disposed outside the body of the patient. The proximal ends (41) of at least two percutaneously disposed pins (4) are anchored in the bone tissue (61) of the patient, and the distal ends (42) are fixed to the support (11). The joint elements (2) are stringed on a central tensile force element (3), and in each case two adjoining joint socket (22). The individual ball joints, and thus the support (11), can be fixed in a reversible frictionally engaged manner by applying a tensile force of the central tensile force element (3). The joint elements (2, 2′) in turn are designed such that a pin (4) can be fastened to the support (11) in a clamping and / or frictionally engaged manner by applying the tensile force of the central tensile force element (3).

An object of the present invention is to enable the improvement of Qos and efficient use of resources with regard to the entire system by performing resource control of an own cell in cooperation with that of peripheral cells. The present invention provides a resource control system used for packet communication between a mobile station and each of a first and a second base stations. The first base station includes the judgment unit for judging whether or not the Qos of a packet to be communicated with the mobile station is ensured in the packet communication with the mobile station, or judging whether or not the resources necessary for a packet to be communicated with the mobile station are secured; and the second base station interface for requesting the second base station to suppress the use of resources when the Qos is judged not to be ensured, or the necessary resources are judged not to be secured. The second base station includes a resource use suppression unit, which suppresses the use of resources for the packet communication with the mobile station in accordance with the request from the first base station.

A pin tumbler lock, operating between a locked position and a released position, comprising a first lock member having at least one first bore with a biasing device and a first pin deposing in the first bore, and a second lock member engaging with the first lock member, forming an interface surface with said first lock member. The second lock member has at least one second bore with a second pin disposed in the second bore, and is aligned with the first bore for receiving the first pin in the locked position. At least one pin is magnetized, and the corresponding second pin is magnetic permeable, such that, when the pins are mobilized by an external force, the magnetized pin remains attracted to the corresponding magnetic permeable pin. No open space between the pins is formed at the interface surface to release the lock members.

The purpose is to achieve excellent bonding of a polymer film, such as a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film, while controlling the use of a light absorbing agent. Provided are a method for bonding a polymer film which comprises face-contacting the surface of the polymer film with the surface of an adherend and laser welding the interface, characterized in that the laser beam is irradiated to the polymer film, which is in the water-absorbed state at least in the interface side thereof, and the thus absorbed water is allowed to absorb the laser beam to thereby achieve the laser welding, and so on.

A battery pack includes a first battery stack having a plurality of battery cells connected in series, a second battery stack having a plurality of battery cells connected in series and connected in parallel to the first battery stack, a controller for sensing voltages of the plurality of battery cells of the first battery stack and the plurality of battery cells of the second battery stack and for outputting a fuse blowing signal when at least one of the sensed voltages is lower than a first reference voltage, and a fuse blowing unit for electrically decoupling the first and second battery stacks from an output terminal of the battery pack in response to the fuse blowing signal from the controller. A fuse blowing signal is also sent to the fuse blowing unit when the at least one of the sensed voltages is higher than a second reference voltage.
