20100139444 | ACCELERATOR PEDAL DEVICE WITH VARIABLE PEDAL EFFORT - An accelerator pedal device with variable pedal effort, may include an elastic member that applies a restoring force in a return direction to an accelerator pedal rotatably coupled to a vehicle body, at least a pedal effort providing elastic member coupled to the vehicle body and providing a pedal effort in an operation direction of the accelerator pedal, and at least a locking pin mounted to the vehicle body and being selectively engaged with at least one of the at least a pedal effort providing elastic member to disable an operation of the selected pedal effort providing elastic members to adjust sequentially the pedal effort of the accelerator pedal. | 06-10-2010 |
20110132121 | APPARATUS FOR REMOVING PARKING STATE OF SHIFT-BY-WIRE SHIFTING DEVICE - An apparatus for releasing a parking state of a shift-by-wire shifting device may include a housing fixed to a vehicle body, a driving screw rotatably coupled to the housing and threaded, a slider engaged to the driving screw and slidable along the driving screw, and a cable connected to the slider and transmitting a sliding motion of the slider to a transmission. | 06-09-2011 |
20110132122 | ELECTRONIC SHIFTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - An electronic shifting apparatus for a vehicle may include an operator movable along at least two or more straight paths, a shift lock assembly controlling a movement of the operator, a sensor detecting changes in position of the operator, a P-switch for selecting a P-range, a safety switch receiving an input from a driver, a controller outputting a shifting signal for controlling a transmission, wherein one of the straight paths sequentially have an R-temporary point for selecting a R-range, an NR-fixing point and an ND-fixing point for selecting an N-range, and a D-temporary point for selecting a D-range, wherein the ND-fixing point is connected with another straight path connecting an M-fixing point for selecting a neutral state in an manual mode, and both sides of the M-fixing point are connected with a (+)-temporary point (+) and a (−)-temporary point (−) through another straight line to operate the manual mode. | 06-09-2011 |
20110132124 | TRANSMISSION SHIFTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - A transmission shifting apparatus of a vehicle, may include a shifter movably installed along at least two straight paths which meet at one point each other, respectively, wherein at least two fixed points are arranged adjacent each other in at least one of straight paths, in which the shifter maintains a position thereof unless an external force is applied thereto, wherein the straight path having the at least two fixed points has a structure extending outward both sides of the at least two fixed points, and wherein one of the at least two fixed points in the straight path is formed to meet the other straight path of the at least two straight paths. | 06-09-2011 |
20110137532 | METHOD OF CONTROLLING VEHICLE WASHING MODE FOR VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH SHIFT-BY-WIRE SHIFTING DEVICE - A method of controlling a vehicle washing mode for a vehicle equipped with shift-by-wire shifting device, may include performing an N-range-off determining step that determines whether a shift lever is in an N-range when an engine stops, performing an ACC determining step that determines whether the vehicle is in an ACC state, and performing a shifting step that shifts a P-range state of a transmission to a N-range state thereof by operating an actuator, when the N-range-off determining step determines that the shift lever is in the N-range when the engine was stopped, and when the ACC determining step determines that the vehicle is in the ACC state. | 06-09-2011 |
20110137533 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING TCU FAIL-SAFE USING ELECTRONIC SHIFT LEVER - The present invention relates to a method for controlling a TCU fail-safe using an electronic shift lever. A failure state of TCU is verified through CAN BUS (serial communication, or hardware wire) using an electronic shift lever unit, and a parking sprag is forcibly unlocked from a parking gear by pulling an override cable for parking by the an electronic shift lever unit when TCU being in the failure state, so that the implementation of fail-safe according to a failure of TCU is accomplished with higher control stability than using a transmission and without an addition of a component or a change of design. | 06-09-2011 |
20120137800 | PARKING RELEASE ACTUATOR - In a parking release actuator, a related motion between a motor and a cable uses a number of worm gears and worm wheel gears using rotation motions in different directions, and the cable is pulled or released by a cable guide converting a rotation motion into an angular motion. Therefore, a number of worm gears and worm wheel gears and the cable guide are made compact and intensive. As a result, it is possible to reduce the entire size of a housing and significantly reduce the operation of the operator required for manual locking or manual release, thereby further improving convenience. | 06-07-2012 |
20140149007 | METHOD OF CONTROLLING VEHICLE WASHING MODE FOR VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH SHIFT-BY-WIRE SHIFTING DEVICE - A method of controlling a vehicle washing mode for a vehicle equipped with shift-by-wire shifting device, may include performing an N-range-off determining step that determines whether a shift lever is in an N-range when an engine stops, performing an ACC determining step that determines whether the vehicle is in an ACC state, and performing a shifting step that shifts a P-range state of a transmission to a N-range state thereof by operating an actuator, when the N-range-off determining step determines that the shift lever is in the N-range when the engine was stopped, and when the ACC determining step determines that the vehicle is in the ACC state. | 05-29-2014 |
