20120139273 | CRASH BOX OF BUMPER FOR VEHICLE - A crash box of a bumper for a vehicle is provided in the bumper to absorb collision energy produced in a collision. The crash box is constructed such that upper and lower horizontal partitions and a plurality of vertical partitions are connected to each other to form a lattice structure having a plurality of hollow portions, and each of the vertical partitions is formed to be bent at a middle portion thereof. A vertical partition located at the outermost position of the hollow portions forming the lattice structure is bent towards the inside of the crash box, and a vertical partition provided in a middle portion of the crash box is bent to the outside or inside of the vehicle. | 06-07-2012 |
20130147619 | METHOD OF DETERMINING FAILURE OF ACTIVE AIR FLAP - A method of determining a failure of an active air flap, including determining whether or not an active air flap is in a non-openable state, if the active air flap is in the non-openable state, continuously checking a variation of the temperature of engine-cooling water, and if the variation is below a reference variation, interrupting the generation of failure-alert, and if the variation of the temperature of engine-cooling water is above the reference variation, processing whether to generate the failure-alert such that if the time taken to reach the variation is above a reference temperature time, interrupting the generation of failure-alert, and if the time is below the reference temperature time, generating the failure-alert. | 06-13-2013 |
20130154285 | BUMPER BEAM ASSEMBLY FOR VEHICLE - A bumper beam assembly for a vehicle may include a back beam disposed inside a vehicle bumper, both distal ends of the back beam being oriented in a lateral direction of a main body of the vehicle, crash boxes coupled to one side of the back beam, the crash boxes protruding from the both distal ends of the back beam toward the bumper, and back beam stays integrally coupled to the other side of the back beam, the back beam stays protruding from the both distal ends of the back beam toward an inside of the vehicle, in a direction opposite to a direction in which the crash boxes protrude. | 06-20-2013 |
20140125031 | INTELLIGENT SIDE STEP APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - An intelligent side step apparatus for a vehicle may include a linear motor having a stator fixed to a vehicle body, with both ends thereof being positioned in a traverse direction of the vehicle, and a mover engaged to the stator and slidable along the stator when a current may be supplied to the stator, a side step that may be rotatably combined with the mover, and a step actuator that may be connected to the mover and engaged to an end of the side step to selectively rotate the side step. | 05-08-2014 |
20140129078 | ACTIVE AIR FLAP APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE AND DEFECT DIAGNOSIS METHOD THEREOF - An active air flap apparatus for a vehicle may include a drive flap positional sensor connected with a drive shaft connecting an actuator and a drive flap and detecting a rotational angle of the drive flap, a driven flap pivotally connected with the drive flap through a link mechanism, a driven flap positional sensor connected with a driven shaft pivotally connected with the link member and detecting a rotational angle of the driven flap, and a controller determining whether the drive flap positional sensor, the driven flap positional sensor, a motor of the actuator, and the link member may be defective by monitoring a feedback voltage value of the drive flap positional sensor, a feedback voltage value of the driven flap positional sensor, and a current applied to the motor of the actuator. | 05-08-2014 |
20140333042 | DOOR STEP DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - A door step device for a vehicle includes: a step panel; a rack gear part which extends from the a step panel and has a locking groove formed at a side thereof; a pinion gear part which gear-meshed with the rack gear part, and rotates by power from a driving motor; a tilting operation part including a projection pin and a solenoid adjusting a projected amount of the projection pin; and a control unit which controls the driving motor at the time of the operation of the step panel to draw the rack gear part and controls the solenoid to tilt the rack gear part and the step panel to the ground. | 11-13-2014 |
20140346809 | ACTIVE AIR FLAP DEVICE FOR VEHICLES - An active air flap device for vehicles includes a first flap installed in the front end of a vehicle and is configured such that the first flap is rotated by power of an actuator so as to be opened or closed, a second flap installed at a location around the first flap and configured such that the second flap is rotated so as to be opened or closed, and a link module connected to the first flap at a first end thereof and connected to the second flap at a second end thereof, and configured such that the link module is moved upward and downward, with a regulation unit provided in a central portion of the link module so that the regulation unit can connect or disconnect a link of the first flap to or from a link of the second flap. | 11-27-2014 |
20140354465 | RADAR APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - A radar apparatus for a vehicle includes: a radar unit provided at an inner side of a radiator grill for a vehicle; a multi-layer transmission cover which is fitted into the radar unit and on a front surface of which a plurality of transmission layers through which a laser beam radiated through the radar unit transmits are formed; and a mounting portion in which a connection body formed by connecting the multi-layer transmission cover to the radar unit is connected to a vehicle body. | 12-04-2014 |
20150042060 | OPERATING APPARATUS AND OPERATING CONTROL METHOD OF SIDE STEP OF VEHICLE - An operating apparatus and operating control method of a side step of a vehicle controls the opening operation of the side step by being operated in conjunction with an operation of a vehicle door and by detecting whether an obstacle is present or not in an opening operation space of a side step of left front, left rear, right front and right rear side steps ( | 02-12-2015 |
