  • Patent number: 10814757
    Abstract: A seatback frame for vehicles is disclosed. The seatback frame for vehicles has a simple structure without bracket structures used to install a conventional seatback frame and thus achieves cost reduction and weight reduction. In particular, the seatback frame is segmented into several parts having different rigidities so that only a part, on which load is concentrated, is set to have high strength and thus avoids overdesign for excessively high strength of an unnecessary part.

  • Patent number: 10533661
    Abstract: A method for controlling a vehicle installed with an automatic transmission, includes: a sudden stop determination step in which a controller determines whether the vehicle has stopped at a speed greater than or equal to a reference deceleration speed and whether a post-stop elapsed time is within a first reference time; a takeoff determination step in which the controller determines whether an input torque of the transmission exceeds zero within the first reference time when a shift range is in a driving range; a pressure control step in which, when the vehicle takes off, the controller elevates a line pressure of the transmission; a limitation determination step in which if a slippage extent of a turbine exceeds a reference slippage value for a second reference time, the controller limits the takeoff; and a torque reduction step in which the controller reduces a takeoff torque input of the transmission.
