FIG. 2B is a rear perspective view of the portable terminal shown in FIG. 2A.

Referring to FIG. 2B, a camera 121 'may be further mounted on the rear surface of the terminal body, that is, the rear case 102. The camera 121 'may have a photographing direction substantially opposite to the camera 121 (see FIG. 2A), and may be a camera having different pixels from the camera 121.

For example, the camera 121 may have a low pixel so that the face of the user can be photographed and transmitted to the other party in case of a video call or the like, and the camera 121 ' It is preferable to have a large number of pixels. The cameras 121 and 121 'may be installed in the terminal body so as to be rotatable or pop-upable.

[ In this case, if the display unit 151 is configured to output time information on both sides, the time information can be recognized through the touch pad 135 as well. The information output on both sides may be all controlled by the touch pad 135. [ Alternatively, a display may be additionally mounted on the touch pad 135, and a touch screen may be disposed on the rear case 102 as well.

The touch pad 135 operates in correlation with the display portion 151 of the front case 101. The touch pad 135 may be disposed parallel to the rear of the display unit 151. The touch pad 135 may have a size equal to or smaller than that of the display unit 151.

Hereinafter, a related operation of the display unit 151 and the touch pad 135 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B.

3A and 3B are front views of a portable terminal for explaining an operation state of the portable terminal according to the present invention.

Various types of time information can be displayed on the display unit 151. [ These pieces of information can be displayed in the form of letters, numbers, symbols, graphics, or icons.

At least one of the letters, numbers, symbols, graphics, or icons may be displayed in a predetermined arrangement for inputting such information, thereby being implemented as a keypad. Such a keypad may be called a so-called " soft key ".

FIG. 3A shows a touch input to a soft key through a front surface of a terminal body.

The display unit 151 may operate as an entire area or may be divided into a plurality of areas and operated. In the latter case, the plurality of areas can be configured to operate in association with each other.

For example, an output window 151a and an input window 151b are displayed on the upper and lower portions of the display unit 151, respectively. The output window 151a and the input window 151b are areas allocated for outputting or inputting information, respectively. In the input window 151b, a soft key 151c in which a number for inputting a telephone number or the like is displayed is output. When the soft key 151c is touched, a number corresponding to the touched soft key is displayed on the output window 151a. When the first operation unit 131 is operated, a call connection is attempted for the telephone number displayed in the output window 151a.

FIG. 3B shows the input of a touch applied to the soft key through the rear surface of the terminal body. FIG. 3A shows a case where the terminal body is vertically arranged, and FIG. 3B shows a case where the terminal body is arranged horizontally. The display unit 151 may be configured to convert the output screen according to the arrangement direction of the terminal body.

3B shows that the text input mode is activated in the portable terminal. The display unit 151 displays an output window 151a 'and an input window 151b'. In the input window 151b ', a plurality of soft keys 151c' displayed with at least one of letters, symbols, and numbers may be arranged. The soft keys 151c 'may be arranged in the form of a QWERTY key.

When the soft keys 151c 'are touched through the touch pad 135 (see FIG. 2B), characters, numbers, symbols corresponding to the touched soft keys are displayed on the output window 151a'. As described above, the touch input through the touch pad 135 is advantageous in that the soft key 151c 'can not be blocked by the finger when the touch is input, compared with the touch input through the display unit 151. [ In the case where the display unit 151 and the touch pad 135 are formed to be transparent, the fingers located on the rear side of the terminal body can be visually confirmed, thereby enabling a more accurate touch input.

The display unit 151 or the touch pad 135 may be configured to receive a touch input by scrolling, as well as the input method described in the above embodiments. The user can move a cursor or a pointer located on an object displayed on the display unit 151, for example, an icon or the like, by scrolling the display unit 151 or the touch pad 135. [ Further, when the finger is moved on the display portion 151 or the touch pad 135, the path along which the finger moves may be visually displayed on the display portion 151. [ This will be useful for editing the image displayed on the display unit 151. [

One function of the terminal may be executed in response to a case where the display unit 151 (touch screen) and the touch pad 135 are touched together within a predetermined time range. In the case of being touched together, there may be a case where the user clamps the terminal body using the thumb and index finger. The one function may be activation or deactivation of the display unit 151 or the touch pad 135, for example.

The proximity sensor 141 described with reference to Fig. 1 will be described in more detail with reference to Fig.

4 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the proximity depth of the proximity sensor.

As shown in FIG. 4, when a pointer such as a user's finger, a pen, or the like approaches the touch screen, the proximity sensor 141 disposed in or near the touch screen senses the proximity sensor and outputs a proximity signal.

The proximity sensor 141 may be configured to output different proximity signals according to the distance between the proximity-touched pointer and the touch screen (hereinafter referred to as "proximity depth").

In FIG. 4, for example, a cross-section of a touch screen having proximity sensors capable of sensing three proximity depths is illustrated. Of course, proximity sensors that detect less than three or more than four proximity depths are also possible.

Specifically, when the pointer is completely in contact with the touch screen (d ₀ ), it is recognized as a contact touch. If the pointer is located on the touch screen at a distance less than the distance d ₁ , it is recognized as a proximity touch of the first proximity depth. If the pointer is located on the touch screen at a distance of d ₁ or more and less than distance d ₂ , it is recognized as a proximity touch of the second proximity depth. If the pointer is located on the touch screen at a distance of d ₂ or more and less than d ₃ distance, it is recognized as a proximity touch of the third proximity depth. If the pointer is positioned apart from the touch screen by a distance d ₃ or more, it is recognized that the proximity touch is released.

Accordingly, the controller 180 can recognize the proximity touch as various input signals according to the proximity depth and proximity position of the pointer, and perform various operation control according to the various input signals.

5 is a conceptual diagram for explaining a control method for a touch operation in a form in which a pair of display units 156 and 157 are overlapped.

The terminal shown in this figure is a folder type terminal connected to a main body so that a folder portion is foldable. The first display unit 156 mounted on the folder unit may be of a light transmitting type or a transparent type such as TOLED or the second display unit 157 mounted on the main body may be a form that does not transmit light like an LCD. The first and second display units 156 and 157 may be configured as a touch screen capable of touch input.

For example, when a touch (contact touch or proximity-touch) is detected with respect to the first display unit or the TOLED 156, At least one of the image lists displayed in the TOLED 156 may be selected or run.

Hereinafter, with respect to the manner in which the information displayed on the other display unit or the LCD 157 is controlled when touching the TOLED 156 exposed to the outside in an overlapped form, a touch, a long touch, a long touch and drag ), And so on.

In the overlapped state (the mobile terminal is in a closed state), the TOLED 156 is disposed in an overlapped manner on the lower side of the LCD 157. [ In this state, if a touch such as a long touch (for example, a touch that lasted for 2 seconds to 3 seconds) is detected in a manner different from the touch for controlling the image displayed on the TOLED 156 in advance, ) Causes at least one image of the image list displayed on the LCD 157 to be selected according to the sensed touch input. The result of the execution of the selected image is displayed on the TOLED 156.

The long touch may also be used to selectively move a desired one of the entities displayed on the LCD 157 to the TOLED 156 (without performing an execution operation therefor). That is, when a user selects one area of the TOLED 156 corresponding to a specific entity of the LCD 157 In the case of a long touch, the control unit 180 moves the corresponding object to the TOLED 156 to be displayed. The entity displayed on the TOLED 155 may also be displayed on the LCD 157 in accordance with a predetermined touch input to the TOLED 156, for example, flicking, swirling, and the like. In this drawing, the menu No. 2 displayed on the LCD 156 is displayed on the TOLED 156.

If another input, for example a drag, is detected in addition to the long touch, the control unit 180 is a function related to the image selected by the long touch, for example, a preview screen for the image is displayed on the TOLED 156. [ As shown in FIG. In this drawing, a case where a preview (male photograph) is performed on the menu No. 2 (image file) is illustrated.

The control unit 180 displays a selection cursor (or a selection bar) of the LCD 157 in a state in which the preview screen is outputted while maintaining the long touch and further dragging the TOLED 156 toward another image And displays the image selected by the selection cursor on a preview screen (female photograph). Thereafter, when the touch (long touch and drag) ends, the controller 180 displays the first image selected by the long touch.

When the slide (the operation of the proximity touch corresponding to the drag) is detected together with the long proximity touch (the proximity touch continuing for at least 2 seconds to 3 seconds) to the TOLED 156, the touch operation (long touch and drag) .

When a touch operation other than those described above is detected, the controller 180 can operate in the same manner as a general touch control method.

The control method for the touch operation in the overlapped form can be applied to a terminal having a single display. In addition, the present invention can be applied to a terminal different from a folder type having a dual display.

FIGS. 6A and 6B are views referred to the description of the proximity touch recognition area where the proximity signal is detected and the haptic area where the tactile effect occurs.

6A shows objects such as icons and menu items in a circular form for convenience of explanation. The area of the object displayed on the display unit 151 can be divided into a first area A in the center and a second area B surrounding the center area as shown in FIG. 6A. The first region A and the second region B can be configured to generate tactile effects having different intensities or patterns. For example, when the second region B is touched, a first vibration is output, and when the first region A is touched, a second vibration larger than the first vibration is output.

In the case where the proximity touch recognition area and the haptic area are simultaneously set in the area where the object is displayed, the haptic area where the tactile effect is generated and the proximity touch area where the proximity signal is detected Can be set differently. That is, the haptic area may be set narrower than the proximity touch recognition area, or the haptic area may be set wider than the proximity touch recognition area. For example, in (a) of FIG. 6A, the area including the first area A and the second area B may be a proximity touch recognition area, and the first area A may be set as a haptic area.

(N > 4) as shown in Fig. 6 (a), as shown in Fig. 6 (b) It is also possible to divide into two areas. Each divided region can be configured to generate a tactile effect with different intensities or patterns. Even when the area in which one object is displayed is divided into three or more areas, the haptic area and the proximity touch recognition area can be set differently according to the use environment.

The size of the proximity touch recognition area may be changed depending on the proximity depth to the display unit 151. [ That is, as shown in (a) of FIG. 6, the corresponding proximity touch recognition area may be gradually reduced to 'C', 'B', and 'A' according to the proximity depth to the display unit 151, Or the contiguous touch recognition area corresponding to the proximity depth to the display unit 151 may be gradually increased. In this case as well, the haptic area can be set to a constant size regardless of the proximity depth to the display unit 151, such as the 'H' area shown in FIG. 6B (b).

 In the case of dividing the area in which the object is displayed for the setting of the haptic area or the proximity touch recognition area, in addition to the concentric segmentation as shown in Fig. 6A, segmentation in the horizontal direction or vertical direction, radial segmentation, And various methods such as partitioning can be used.

A configuration in which the above-described projector module is provided in the bar-shaped mobile terminal 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. 7A and 7B. 7A and 7B are perspective views of an example of a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

The main body 101 of the mobile terminal may be coupled with a projector body 105 having the projector module 155 so as to be rotatable.

That is, the projector body 105 may be hinged to the main body 101, and the projection angle of the image may be adjusted when the image is projected using the projector module 155 provided in the projector body 105 And a camera 121 may be disposed on the projector body 105 so that the image projected by the projector module 155 can be photographed.

FIG. 7A shows a state before the projector body 105 rotatably coupled with the main body 101 is rotated, and FIG. 7B shows a state after the projector body 105 is rotated.

In this specification, a broadcasting company may refer to a server that transmits broadcast-related information to at least one terminal through a network such as a broadcasting network, or a subject who operates such a server. At least one broadcaster may be allocated respective frequencies (or frequency bands) for transmitting broadcast-related data, and at least one channel may be included in broadcast signals transmitted through the allocated frequencies. In addition, broadcasts transmitted by the broadcasting company through the respective frequencies may support a plurality of languages. That is, the broadcast may include at least one of a subtitle, a voice, and a broadcast schedule table in a plurality of languages. Here, the term " subtitle " refers to a predetermined text that can be displayed in a predetermined font, and may be displayed and disappear on the display for a predetermined period of time. The broadcast schedule table is a predetermined time table that shows information such as name, content, and time of contents broadcast on the corresponding channel.

For convenience of description, it is assumed that the terminal described below can include at least one of the components shown in FIG. 1, and can perform a broadcasting mode corresponding to each of at least one broadcaster. The terminal 100 referred to in this specification supports a plurality of languages for the sake of convenience of the user and selects a language (hereinafter referred to as "user language") among the plurality of languages And when a voice is added to the menu, the voice corresponding to the menu can be outputted. For this purpose, fonts, images, sounds, and user language settings in the plurality of languages can be stored in the memory unit 160. In the broadcast mode, when the multi-language broadcasting supporting a plurality of languages is received from the broadcasting company, the broadcasting can be reproduced in the language selected by the user among the plurality of languages for each item of the audio, the subtitles and the broadcasting schedule table.

In this specification, a language desired to be viewed by the user in the broadcast mode is referred to as a " first language ", and each of the remaining multi-languages except for the first language is referred to as a "second language ". Here, the first language can be set separately by the user, and if there is no other setting, the terminal can follow the preset user language.

First Embodiment

Hereinafter, a broadcast control method according to a first embodiment of a terminal according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 8. 8 is a flowchart of a broadcast control method of a terminal according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The first language is preset in the terminal by the user and stored in the memory unit 160. The broadcasting company can broadcast the broadcast signal in at least one of the subtitle, .

First, the terminal 100 enters the broadcasting mode through an appropriate menu operation (S11). Then, the terminal 100 searches for a specific frequency in order to receive broadcast data of a broadcasting company through the wireless communication unit 110. If the terminal 100 can receive and reproduce broadcast signals of a plurality of broadcasting companies, the method may further include a process of selecting one of the plurality of broadcasting companies.

Upon completion of the frequency search, broadcast related information may be received through the searched frequency (S12). Here, the broadcast-related information may be in the form of an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) in the case of the DMB system or an Electronic Service Guide (ESG) in the case of the DVB-H system, as described above. In addition, it may include information related to a broadcasting program or a broadcasting service provider. In particular, information on the support of a plurality of languages (multi-language) of broadcasting provided in each channel, the type of supported language and the location of supported language data . When the broadcast-related information is received, the broadcast-related information can be stored in the memory unit 160 of the terminal 100.

As a next step, one channel may be selected (S13). The selection of the channel is performed by inputting through the user input unit 130 from the list if the receivable channel information obtained from the received broadcast related information is displayed on the display unit 151 before entering the broadcast in the form of a predetermined channel list It can be a form that receives the user's choice. In addition, if the channel reproduced in the broadcasting mode last is stored in the memory unit 160, the last reproduced channel can be automatically reproduced. The channel having the channel number that comes first in the broadcast-related information may be automatically reproduced.

When the channel is selected through the above-described procedure, the terminal 100 can determine whether the selected channel supports a plurality of languages for a predetermined item using the received broadcast-related information (S14) . As a result of the determination, if the selected channel supports only one DEFAULT language, broadcast will be output in the DEFAULT language [S17]. Here, the predetermined item preferably includes a caption, a voice, and a broadcast schedule table.

And if a plurality of languages are supported for at least one of the predetermined items in the selected channel, whether there is a language matching the first language among a plurality of languages supported for the at least one item, Information [S15].

If it is determined that the first language exists among the plurality of languages supported by the at least one item, the terminal 100 may receive and play the first language data for the at least one item. Here, the reception of the first language data may be performed by referring to the location of the language data for the first language included in the received broadcast-related information.

In other words, the user can watch at least one of the subtitles and the voice in the first language through the terminal 100 without any additional operation on the broadcast of the selected channel. Also, according to the operation of the user, the broadcast schedule table in the first language can be viewed. If the selected channel supports both the subtitle, audio and broadcast schedule for the first language, all three items can be reproduced in the first language. However, if the first language is supported only for some of the three items, only the supported items will be changed to the first language, and unsupported items will be output according to the default settings, respectively. This will be described further with reference to FIG.

In FIG. 9, it is assumed that the first language is set to Korean and the channel 07 provides voice, subtitles, and broadcast schedule tables in Korean and English, respectively. In addition, it is assumed that the language designated by default on the channel 07 is English. 9 (9-1) and 9-2 (9-2) are state diagrams of broadcast screens according to the related art, and FIGS. 9 (9-3) and 9-4 to be.

Referring to (9-1) of FIG. 9, since the default language of the channel is English although the first language is Korean, the caption 910 and the program information 911 are displayed in English. The broadcast schedule table 920 shown in FIG. 9 (9-2) is also provided in English. However, since the first language is Korean, the menu display 921 is in Korean. Here, in order to view the subtitles and broadcast schedule chart in Korean, it is inconvenient that a separate menu operation is required. However, according to the present invention, when the channel is selected without any other operation as shown in (9-3) of FIG. 9, the caption 930 and the program information 931 can be viewed in the first language, Korean. The broadcast schedule table 940 is also convenient in that it can be viewed in Korean as shown in (9-4) of FIG. It is needless to say that the audio can be changed to the first language without any other operation, such as the caption and the broadcast schedule.

If it is determined that the first language is not included in the plurality of languages supported by the selected channel, the broadcast will be reproduced in the default language by the broadcasting station as in the conventional method [ S17].

A terminal capable of reproducing a broadcast in a first language preset in a terminal and a method for reproducing the broadcast have been described. Through the above-described method, the user can conveniently watch the broadcast in the first language set in the terminal. Further, it is possible to set the language separately for each of the caption, voice and broadcast schedule table. This will be described in the second embodiment.

Second Embodiment

Hereinafter, a broadcast control method according to a second embodiment of a terminal according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. According to the second embodiment of the terminal of the present invention, it is possible to preset whether each of the subtitles, the voice and the broadcast schedule is automatically changed to the first language, Control method.

The method is basically the same as the method described in the first embodiment, and further includes a process of referring to the information on whether or not the automatic change is set by the user for each of the caption, voice, and broadcast schedule table. The above process is preferably performed between steps S13 and S14 of FIG. That is, it is first determined whether the selected channel is automatically changed to the first language and output for each item before considering whether the selected channel supports a plurality of languages for each item of subtitle, audio, and broadcast schedule table . As a result of the determination, if the item set to be automatically changed to the first language is to be continued in step S14 of FIG. 8, the non-selected item is output to the default language in the selected channel by proceeding to step S17. Setting of the automatic change or not will be described with reference to FIG.

Referring to FIG. 10, the user can enter the broadcasting language setting screen 1000 through a predetermined menu operation. Here, a check box 1001 for asking whether or not the voice is automatically changed to the first language is prepared. Similarly, a check box is prepared for setting whether to automatically change the subtitle 1002 and broadcast schedule table 1003, respectively. The information set in the screen 1000 can be stored in the memory unit 160 and can be compared with the language information of the voice, the caption, and the broadcast schedule included in the received broadcast-related information. Accordingly, using the method, the user can conveniently watch broadcasts output in the first language only through voice, subtitles, and broadcast schedule lists through the terminal. That is, in the first embodiment described above, all the items are checked in the setting screen 1000 according to the present embodiment.

In this embodiment, it is further possible to designate a language to be automatically changed for each item of the caption, voice, and broadcast schedule table. This will be described in the third embodiment.

Third Embodiment

Hereinafter, a broadcast control method according to a third embodiment of a terminal according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 11 and FIG. According to the third embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method of outputting a broadcast by changing a language of a voice, a caption, and a broadcast schedule table to a predetermined language separately from a predetermined first language, . The present method is the same as the first embodiment in that broadcast is output in a predetermined language. However, there is a difference in that broadcasts can be output by changing to a desired language previously set for each of the items, instead of changing the first language to all of the audio, subtitles, and broadcast schedule tables. The desired output language setting including the desired language information for each item may be stored in the memory unit 160, and the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

 When the broadcast mode is executed (S1101), the terminal 100 can receive broadcast-related information (S1102) and select a channel (S1103). If the channel is selected, it is determined whether the selected channel supports a plurality of languages according to each item (S1104). Since the processes from the start to the above are the same as the processes from S11 to S14 of FIG. 8 described in the first embodiment, redundant description will be omitted. As a result of the determination, it is determined whether there is a language matching the desired language among a plurality of languages supported for the items that support a plurality of languages, using the received broadcast-related information. In other words, when the selected channel supports a plurality of languages for the subtitles, the desired output language for the subtitles included in the desired output language setting is set to the subtitle support information of the selected channel included in the received broadcast- (S1105a). In the same manner, the voice determines whether there is a desired output language preset for the voice (S1105b) based on the received broadcast-related information. The items of the broadcast schedule table are also the same (S1105c). As a result of the determination on each of the items, the desired language data is received for the item in which the desired language exists, and the broadcast of the selected channel is output (S1106a, S1106b, S1106c). The reception of the desired language data may be performed by referring to the location information of the data included in the received broadcast related information, as described above. If the selected channel does not support a plurality of languages or supports the desired language but does not exist in the selected channel, the broadcast will be reproduced in a language that the channel provides by default (S1107a, S1107b, S1107c).

 Therefore, if the user wishes to always view the broadcast of the movie channel in the form of Korean subtitles in the English voice, the desired output language for the voice is set to English, and the desired output language for the subtitles is set to Korean, It is convenient because there is no need to change the setting every time when the user enters the terminal. Here, an example of the setting of the desired output language will be described with reference to Fig.

Referring to FIG. 12, the user can enter the broadcasting language setting screen 1200 through a predetermined menu operation. Here, a voice item 1210 exists as a sub-menu of the setting screen, and a selectable language list 1220 is displayed with the sub-menu. The subtitles and broadcast schedule also have the same submenu. The user can select one language from the language list for each item, and information on the language selected for each item can be stored in the memory unit 160. [

Subsequently, when a broadcast is being reproduced in a predetermined language on a channel providing a plurality of languages through the above-described method, a method of changing the broadcast language to the second language and reproducing the broadcast in accordance with the user's selection is described in the fourth embodiment .

Fourth Embodiment

Hereinafter, a broadcast control method according to a fourth embodiment of the terminal according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 13A and 13B. 13A and 13B show display state diagrams according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, respectively.

According to the above-described methods, when a channel providing a plurality of languages is selected and the broadcast is being reproduced in the first language or another predetermined language, there is a case where it is desired to temporarily change the output language to another language. At this time, a predetermined icon for displaying at least one language (i.e., a second language) excluding the currently displayed language among the plurality of languages may be displayed for changing the output language. As an input through the user input unit 130, the output language can be conveniently changed by selecting one of the second languages indicated by the icon. The predetermined icon may be a list of the second languages, and may be displayed in a predetermined image format corresponding to each second language. Also, the list or the predetermined image may be displayed in the language or the first language in which the current caption is displayed, and may be stored in the memory unit 160. [ This will be described with reference to Figs. 13A and 13B.

In Fig. 13A, it is assumed that channel 07 is selected, and English, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese are supported as captions, and English and Korean are supported by voice. It is assumed that the current caption 1310 and the voice are outputted in English according to the language setting information preset in the terminal 100. [ At this time, the second language that can be changed on the display is displayed in English, which is the language currently displayed for the caption 1320 and the voice 1330 in the form of a list. A second language for each item can be determined by selecting from a predetermined input through the user input unit 130 in each of the lists 1320 and 1330.

Next, in Fig. 13B, it is assumed that the language supported by channel 07 is the same as that in Fig. 13A, and the first language of the terminal is Korean. In this case, the icon 1320 corresponding to the second language for the caption is displayed in a circular shape, the icon 1330 corresponding to the second language for the voice is displayed in a square, and both icons 1320 and 1330 The first language is Korean. If an icon corresponding to the caption and the voice is selected as an input through the user input unit 130, the conveniently output language can be changed for each item. The icon may be displayed after a predetermined time is displayed according to the user's proper menu operation.

When the language of at least one of the subtitle and the voice is changed through the operation of the icon, the changed at least one item may be reproduced in synchronization with the broadcast being provided from the selected channel and being reproduced. For example, even if a user changes a subtitle to a different language while watching a movie channel, the changed subtitle is synchronized with the video and audio being output, and the appropriate subtitle is synchronized with the time of the video and audio Can be output. For this purpose, it is possible to implement the method in which the time information of the broadcast being reproduced is made to coincide with the time information of the changed caption or the voice signal.

Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the above-described method can be implemented as a code that can be read by a processor on a medium on which the program is recorded. Examples of the medium that can be read by the processor include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, etc., and may be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (e.g., transmission over the Internet) .

The mobile terminal described above can be applied to not only the configuration and method of the embodiments described above but also all or some of the embodiments may be selectively combined so that various modifications may be made to the embodiments It is possible.
