Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a cylindrical secondary battery in which a positive electrode terminal is adhered and fixed to a cylindrical can by an insulating sheet, and thus sealing between the cylindrical can and the positive electrode terminal can be facilitated due to an increased contact area.

Abstract: A vehicle which contributes to safe autonomous driving by washing the sensor provided in the vehicle by efficiently using a limited capacity washing solution, and a control method thereof. The vehicle includes: a first sensor; a second sensor; a driving device including at least one motor and configured to operate to clean the first sensor and the second sensor; and a controller configured to control the driving device to first wash the first sensor prior to the second sensor based on predetermined rank information when is the controller determines that at least one of the first sensor and the second sensor is contaminated.

Abstract: A display inside mirror includes a housing configured to be secured to a windshield glass, the housing having an opening formed therein, a mirror part disposed in the opening, a display unit disposed so as to face the mirror part, a control unit disposed adjacent to the display unit so as to control the transmission of a display image, a tilting lever disposed at one end of the housing so as to tilt the mirror part, and a switch unit disposed at the tilting lever so as to allow the power from the control unit to be selectively applied to the display unit.

Abstract: A method is provided for operating a display inside mirror for driving a display unit in response to a driving request of a user and a change in the driving request to provide a rear visual field to the user. The method includes determining whether a display unit is set to an operation mode and when the display unit is set to the operation mode, determining whether a driving condition is satisfied. When the driving condition is not satisfied whether the determined driving condition is changed is determined prior to determination of the driving condition. The controller is configured to operate the display unit when the driving condition is changed and convert the display unit to an off state when the driving condition is not changed.

Abstract: A rain sensor of a vehicle and a control method thereof are provided to solve a problem that a measurement result of rainfall varies according to a glass specification of a windshield even under the same rainfall condition by tuning sensitivity of the rain sensor in accordance with the glass specification of the windshield. For this, a method of determining the glass specification of the rain sensor includes determining the glass specification of the windshield from a light-receiving signal obtained by receiving light reflected by the windshield of the vehicle, and eliminating a deviation between light-receiving signals by glass specification, which is caused by a difference in the glass specification, by applying parameter tuning according to a glass specification to the light-receiving signal.

Abstract: An integrated inside mirror assembly for a vehicle may have a stay fixed to a windshield glass of the vehicle and an inside mirror coupled to the stay, in which the stay may include a sub stay coupled to a rear surface of the inside mirror, a base attached to an upper end of the windshield glass and to which a rain sensor is mounted, a mount slidably assembled at an outside of the base and coupled to the sub stay through a ball joint, a stay cover coupled to the mount while surrounding the mount and attached to the upper end of the windshield glass, and an antenna cover assembled at one side of the mount and to which an antenna member is mounted.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of metal and plastic composite bodies integrated by etching a surface of a metal member and forming a thermoplastic resin on an etching surface may include forming a printing layer which prints a pattern or a character on an exposed surface of a metal member and a protective layer for protecting the printed pattern thereon, grease-removing and cleaning to remove a passivation oxidized film at a rear side of the metal member to be integrally coupled with a plastic portion, surface-treating a surface by using and etching a ferric chloride solution in a range of pH 3 to 4.5 so as to form a minute unevenness at the rear side, removing a smut generated in the surface-treating process, and molding for integrally forming the plastic portion with the metal member.
