GRILLE SHUTTER CONTROL DEVICE
This grille shutter control device controls opening and closing of a grille shutter, taking into account not only the cooling performance of a vehicle, but also other performance aspects. The grille shutter control device is a grille shutter control device for controlling opening and closing of a grille shutter in a vehicle equipped with an internal combustion engine, wherein a control device includes: a logic selecting unit for selecting one logic from among a plurality of opening degree determining logics for determining an opening degree of a grille shutter, on the basis of an atmospheric temperature inside an exhaust pipe (K1) of an engine; and a logic executing unit for controlling opening and closing of the grille shutter by executing the one logic selected by the logic selecting unit.

SHUTTER DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A shutter device includes a frame, an opening-closing portion, and a protrusion. The frame is disposed between a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger and defines an inner space through which air introduced from a grill opening of a vehicle flows in an airflow direction. Each of the first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger has a core and a remaining portion other than the core. The opening-closing portion is configured to selectively open and close the inner space of the frame. The protrusion protrudes, in a direction parallel to the airflow direction, from the frame toward the remaining portion of at least one of the first heat exchanger or the second heat exchanger.
HEAT RADIATOR AND TURBO FRACTURING UNIT COMPRISING THE SAME
The present disclosure relates to a heat radiator and a turbo fracturing unit comprising the same. The heat radiator includes: a cabin; a heat radiation core disposed at the inlet and configured to allow a gas to pass therethrough; a gas guide device disposed at the outlet and configured to suction the air within the cabin to the outlet; and noise reduction core disposed within the cabin, which is of a structure progressively converging to the outlet. The heat radiator is configured to enable the gas to enter the cabin via the inlet, then sequentially pass through the heat radiation core, a surface of the noise reduction core and the gas guide device, and finally be discharged out of the cabin. The heat radiator according to the present disclosure is a suction-type heat radiator which can regulate the speed of the gas guide device based on the temperature of the gas at the inlet, thereby avoiding energy waste and unnecessary noise. The smooth curved surface of the noise reduction core can reduce noise without affecting the gas flow.
ADJUSTMENT DEVICE FOR AN AIR STREAM INFLUENCING ELEMENT, METHOD FOR ADJUSTING AN AIR STREAM INFLUENCING ELEMENT WITH AN ADJUSTMENT DEVICE, MOTOR VEHICLE PROVIDED WITH AN AIR STREAM INFLUENCING ELEMENT WITH AN ADJUSTMENT DEVICE
Adjustment device for adjusting an air stream influencing element of a motor vehicle between at least a first position and a second position, comprising a driving unit for adjusting the air stream influencing element between at least the first position and the second position, provided with an input shaft having an input axis and an output shaft having an output axis which is at a distance from the input axis, wherein the driving unit has a first, part which is provided around the input axis of the driving unit, and has a second part, wherein the adjustment device is furthermore provided with a failsafe mechanism, wherein the failsafe mechanism engages the first part of the driving unit, wherein the failsafe mechanism comprises an auxiliary driving motor, separately from a main driving motor of the driving unit.
DYNAMIC CONTROL FOR VEHICLE COOLANT
A system comprising a computer including a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions such that the processor is programmed to: receive at least one of expected upcoming traffic behavior or actual upcoming traffic behavior corresponding to an upcoming segment of a roadway being traversed by a vehicle; adjust a radiator hysteresis timer based on the expected upcoming traffic behavior or the actual upcoming traffic behavior; and transmit a control signal to an actuator to actuate a radiator fan based on the adjusted radiator hysteresis timer.
Serviceable actuation system for active grille shutter
A serviceable actuation arrangement for an active grille shutter system. The serviceable actuation arrangement includes a linkage connected to all of the vanes of the active grille shutter system. The linkage is connected to an actuator and moves vertically to rotate the vanes between an open position and a closed position. Between the actuator and the linkage are drive arms that are removably connected to the actuator. There is a connector clip that connects the drive arms and the linkage together in a removable manner. The connector clip retains the components together during operation, but provides a quick release so that the actuator can be removed and changed without having to disassemble the vanes from the linkage.
Flap position sensing device of active air flap system and method of manufacturing the same
A flap position sensing device of an active air flap system, and a method of manufacturing the same are described. The flap position sensing device includes a rotating body, a sensor casing, a first hall sensor and a second hall sensor, and a first permanent magnet and a second permanent magnet. The rotating body is formed of a resin material, and rotates the flap by receiving torque while the rotating body is coaxially fixed to a rotation shaft of the flap. The sensor casing is formed of a resin material, and is fixed to the housing to rotatably support the rotating body. The first hall sensor and the second hall sensor are integrally formed with the sensor casing by injection molding, and are disposed corresponding to an open position and a closed position, respectively, of the flap.
Grille shutter control device
A grille shutter control device is employed for a grille shutter that includes a frame, which is provided in a front grille of a vehicle and has an outside air inlet, and an opening-closing unit for opening and closing the outside air inlet. The grille shutter control device controls an opening-closing operation of the opening-closing unit such that the outside air inlet is opened or closed in accordance with a condition of the vehicle. The grille shutter controller includes an actuator and a controlling section. The actuator performs an anti-sticking operation for preventing the opening-closing unit from being stuck. The controlling section controls the actuator such that the anti-sticking operation is periodically performed by the actuator.
Apparatus and method of controlling heat of engine compartment of vehicle when stopped
An apparatus and method of controlling heat of an engine compartment when stopped are provided. The apparatus and method of controlling heat of an engine compartment improve fuel efficiency by managing heat of the engine compartment when a vehicle is stopped after driving.
