System and method for controlling engine clutch
A method for controlling an engine clutch includes steps of controlling the hydraulic pressure transmitted from a master cylinder, driven by a motor, to a concentric slave cylinder using a controller outputting a motor control command for controlling an engine clutch so as to switch the engine clutch to a target state, driving the engine clutch using the concentric slave cylinder, after the step of controlling hydraulic pressure, detecting a position of a piston of the master cylinder using a first travel sensor and detecting a position of a piston of the concentric slave cylinder using a second travel sensor, and performing compensation control with respect to the motor based on the positions of the pistons detected by the first travel sensor and the second travel sensor using the controller so that the engine clutch is switched to the target state.

Regulator for clutch operating mechanism
Disclosed is a regulator for clutch operating mechanism. The regulator includes a main body, a supply flow path for fluid flow from a master cylinder to an operating cylinder, and a return flow for fluid flow from the operating cylinder to the master cylinder inside of the main body. The regulator further includes a first valve installed inside the main body and configured to close an exit of the return flow path and open the supply flow path when the fluid flows to the operating cylinder and a second valve installed inside the main body configured to close an exit of the supply flow path and to open the return flow path when the fluid flows to the master cylinder. The regulator further includes a damping apparatus having a damping space which communicates with the supply flow path of the main body and whose internal capacity changes according to hydraulic pressure.
Regulator for clutch actuator
A regulator for clutch actuator includes a housing having a cylindrical damping space inside, a first fluid path interconnecting the damping space and a master cylinder, and a second fluid path interconnecting the damping space and a an operating cylinder.
