  • Publication number: 20160131180
    Abstract: A cable socket has an isolation function attached to an end of a transmission cable which connects a transmission disposed in an engine compartment of a vehicle and a shift lever installed inside the vehicle. The cable socket includes a casing cap and a guide pipe connected to each other in the cable socket and extending outwardly from the cable socket. A rubber damper is attached to the casing cap at which the casing cap and the guide pipe are connected. An internal housing has an end of the guide pipe being inserted therein. An external housing is attached to the internal housing, in which the casing cap and the rubber damper are inserted. A pressure blocking member is inserted between the rubber damper and the external housing to block a pressure applied to the external housing from being transferred to the rubber damper.

  • Patent number: 8387410
    Abstract: An air-cooling type chiller is provided. The chiller may include a plurality of fans, and an intermediate device provided between adjacent fans of the plurality of fans. When one of the fans is disabled, air is not drawn in through the disabled fan due to the intermediate device, but instead may pass through a condenser, thereby minimizing degradation in condensing efficiency. The intermediate device may be formed as an auxiliary condenser so that any air drawn in through a disabled fan passes through the auxiliary condenser, also minimizing impact on condensing efficiency.

  • Patent number: 6371271
    Abstract: Disclosed is a locking apparatus for the change lever of a vehicle, which can reliably conduct an operation for preventing a change lever from being operated unless a brake pedal is depressed in a parking state. The apparatus includes a pedal-end slide pin, a lever-end slide pin, and a cable which are operatively connected to the brake pedal. A guide pin is mounted to the change lever in such a fashion that it conducts an arc movement in accordance with a hinging movement of the change lever. The guide pin is selectively engaged with the lever-end slide pin in order to prevent the change lever from being operated in a parking state unless the brake pedal is depressed. An arc-shaped engagement preventing member is operatively connected to the guide pin.
