Patent number: 10234023Abstract: An apparatus for electronically controllable transmission is provided to shift gears by moving a shift lever and sensing the magnetic flux density of a magnet, which moves based on the rotation of the shift lever, using a three-dimensional (3D) hall sensor. The apparatus includes a shift lever having one end connected to a magnet and shifting gears by moving the shift lever and a shift lever body connected to the shift lever and allows the shift lever to move around shift axis or select axis. A sensor unit is mounted fixedly intersecting the shift axis and select axis within the shift lever body and senses the movement of the magnet around an X-axis, a Y-axis and a Z-axis as the magnet moves. The sensor unit is mounted at a tilted angle to provide at least two of three output signals with linearity.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2016Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: SL CorporationInventors: Jeong-Ho Bak, Chun Nyung Heo, Haeik Jang, MinGwon Lee, Yong Hyun Kim

Patent number: 9435425Abstract: An automotive transmission that selects a shift position based on various shift patterns without changing the structure of the automotive transmission. The automotive transmission includes a controller configured to input a selection value based on a shift pattern selected from a plurality of shift patterns and operate a shift lever to move through a moving path based on the selected shift pattern when a shift intention is sensed. When the selection value is input, the shift position is set at an initial position based on the selected shift pattern and actuation power is generating according to the movement of the shift lever. The controller is configured to operate the moving path of the shift pattern based on the selected shift pattern and sense a position of the shift lever using a positing sensing unit.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2013Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: SL CorporationInventors: Chun Nyung Heo, Jeong Ho Bak, Dae Hyung Kim
