Korean to English: Electric mousetrap patent claim Detailed field: Patents
Source text - Korean 발명의명칭 고전압 전자 쥐덫
초록
쥐를 소정 주파수의 음으로 평판 상으로 유인하여 고전압을 인가함으로써 고전압 충격으로 쥐를 죽이도록 된 고전압 전자 쥐덫에 관한 것이다.
본 발명은, 고전압을 인가하여 쥐를 잡는 고전압 전자 쥐덫에 있어서, 본체를 이루는 평판의 소정 위치에 배치되어 쥐를 유인하는 소정 음을 발생하는 음발생수단, 상기 쥐의 상기 평판 상부접근을 감지하여 스위칭신호를 출력하는 감지수단, 상기 감지수단의 스위칭신호에 따라 고전압을 선택적으로 발생시키는 고전압발생수단 및 소정 패턴으로 상기 고전압발생수단에 연결된 제 1 및 제 2 배선이 평행이격되어 상기 평판상에 형성되어서 상기 쥐가 상기 두 배선에 걸쳐 접촉되면 상기 쥐의 몸체로 고전압을 인가시키는 살서수단을 구비하여 이루어진다.
따라서, 본 발명은, 쥐가 민감한 반응을 보이고 모여드는 주파수의 음을 기록하여 출력시킴으로써 쥐를 의심없이 쉽게 모여들게 할 수 있고, 모여든 쥐는 고전압을 이용하여 순간적으로 퇴치시킬 수 있어서, 손쉽게 쥐를 퇴치할 수 있는 효과가 있다.
Translation - English Title: High-Voltage Electric Mousetrap
Abstract: This claim concerns a high-voltage electric mousetrap which kills rats or mice with an electric shock by luring them onto a flat surface using a sound of specific frequency and then discharging at high voltage.
The invention in question, an electrical mousetrap which catches mice by discharging at high voltage, is made up of a sound-generating mechanism which generates the specified sound to lure the mouse to the specified location on the board, a sensing mechanism which generates a switching signal upon sensing the approach of the aforementioned mouse to the surface of the aforementioned board, a high-voltage generation mechanism which generates high voltage at will upon the switching signal from the aforementioned sensing mechanism, two parallel electric wires connected to the aforementioned high-voltage generation device which are arranged in parallel in a specified pattern upon the aforementioned board, and a killing mechanism which discharges the high voltage potential into the body of the aforementioned rat if it contacts the aforementioned second wire.
Accordingly, this invention has the power to easily exterminate mice from an area. By first recording the sound frequency to which the mice have shown a profound response and then emitting that frequency, this invention can readily gather the mice together without making them suspicious, and can also exterminate the gathered mice instantly with high voltage.

Source text - Korean XML(EXtensible Markup Language)은 기존의 HTML의 한계를 극복하기 위해 1998년 발표되었으며 웹에서 데이터 표준이라고 할 수 있습니다.
데이터 전송과 처리라는 측면에서 XML은 확실한 표준으로 자리 잡으며 웹의 큰 축이 되고 있습니다. EDI/CALS의 전자상거래와 국가 행정 업무 간 문서 전송과 저장, 자료검색 등 인터넷과 DB를 사용하는 범위를 뛰어 넘는 다양한 분야에서 XML이 사용되고 있습니다.
한/글 2005에서는 이러한 XML 문서를 일반 사용자들이 쉽게 작성하고 널리 이용할 수 있도록 하기 위해 ‘XML 서식 만들기’와 ‘XML 서식을 이용하여 XML 문서 작성하기’ 기능을 제공합니다.
Translation - English XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a web data standard first published in 1998 in order to overcome the limits of basic HTML.
Now that it has emerged as a fixed standard, XML is swiftly coming to play a key role in data transmission on the web. Today XML is being used in diverse fields far beyond the scope of simple internet and database applications. Uses of XML include the transmission and storage of documents among government offices, EDI/CALS electronic transactions, and document searches.
Hangul 2005 now provides the “Create XML format” and “Generate XML document using an XML format" functions, which allow the general user to easily generate and use these versatile XML documents.
