  • Patent number: 9580102
    Abstract: A device for compensating friction of a motor driven power steering system, comprising a sensing unit for sensing at least one of a steering angle, an angular speed and a vehicle speed, and a steering torque corresponding to the at least one of the steering angle, the angular speed and the vehicle speed; and a control unit for storing the steering torques sensed through the sensing unit in a storage unit when the at least one of the steering angle, the angular speed and the vehicle speed sensed through the sensing unit falls into the respective setting range. The control unit calculates an average value of the stored steering torques when the number of steering torques stored in the storage unit is equal to or higher than a reference number, and computes a friction-compensating torque based on a result obtained by comparing the average value with a reference value.

  • Publication number: 20130257241
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a case frame is provided in which a real material is simulated by the manufacturing process from both an appearance and a texture (feel). In the method, a case frame is formed in a shape corresponding to an applied product. A first paint layer is formed using color of a material applied to a surface of the formed case frame. A pattern print layer corresponding to a texture pattern of a relevant material is formed on an upper portion of the first paint layer. A second paint layer is formed such that the first paint layer and a pattern of the pattern print layer are properly expressed that their texture simulates a relevant material. The pattern print layer is further additionally formed on an upper portion of the first paint layer, so that texture of the relevant material can be simulated more realistically.

  • Publication number: 20110250400
    Abstract: A method of fabricating an injection-molded product includes: manufacturing an injection-molded material using a mold; forming a metal layer on an inner or outer surface of the injection-molded material; and removing a portion of the metal layer using a laser, and forming a pattern. Since the injection-molded product fabricated through the method has pattern with a metallic feeling, it can provide a metallic feeling of a high brightness that cannot be realized by a method such as printing and can provide a cubic feeling due to removal of a metal layer. The method provides portable products such as cases for cosmetic products and portable terminals with various visually appealing feelings, allowing users to express various individual styles or preferences using the portable products.
