| 20160003501 | TED HEAT EXCHANGER - A thermo-electric device heat exchanger may include a plate part including a plurality of cooling tubes and a plurality of heat radiation tubes alternately disposed with respect to each other, a cooling inflowing tank and a cooling discharging tank connected to an inlet and an outlet of a cooling tube in the plurality of cooling tubes, a heat radiation inflowing tank and a heat radiation discharging tank connected to an inlet and an outlet of a heat radiation tube in the plurality of radiation tubes, and a thermoelectric element having a cooling surface and a heat radiation surface and disposed between the cooling tube and the heat radiation tube. The cooling surface may be attached to the cooling tube and the heat radiation surface may be attached to the heat radiation tube. | 01-07-2016 |
| 20160003434 | LIGHTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - A lighting apparatus for a vehicle may include a reflector configured to reflect light generated from a light source forward, a lens configured to be disposed in front of the reflector to receive the light reflected from the reflector, a first reflecting body configured to be disposed between the lens and the reflector to receive light not received in the lens among the light reflected from the reflector, and a second reflecting body configured to guide the light reflected from the first reflecting body to the lens. | 01-07-2016 |
| 20160003351 | TWO-SPEED TRANSMISSION FOR VEHICLE - A two-speed transmission for a vehicle may include an input shaft that receives power from a motor, a planetary gear unit that receives power from the input shaft and transmits it to an output shaft, and a clutch unit that is installed on the planetary gear unit and determines an element concerning variation of a rotation speed of the motor. | 01-07-2016 |
| 20160003348 | Hydraulic Pressure Supply System of Automatic Transmission - A hydraulic pressure supply system of an automatic transmission may include a low-pressure oil pump generating low hydraulic pressure while being driven by an engine to exhaust the low hydraulic pressure to a first low-pressure channel, a high-pressure oil pump raising a portion of the hydraulic pressure in the first low-pressure channel to a high pressure while being driven by an electric motor to exhaust the hydraulic pressure to a first high-pressure channel, a low-pressure regulator valve controlling the hydraulic pressure while exhausting a portion of the hydraulic pressure to supply the controlled hydraulic pressure to a low-pressure part through a second low-pressure channel, and a high-pressure regulator valve controlling the hydraulic pressure while re-circulating a portion of the hydraulic pressure to the low-pressure part through single or two re-circulation channels according to the pressure to supply the controlled hydraulic pressure to a high-pressure part through the second high-pressure channel. | 01-07-2016 |
