  • Publication number: 20200324758
    Abstract: A control method for an electronic limited slip differential of a vehicle includes: determining by a controller, whether the vehicle is in an understeer state or an oversteer state when the vehicle is turning; and performing driving force movement control by the controller. In particular, when the vehicle is in the understeer state and an actual driving force of an inner wheel of the vehicle is greater than an allowable driving force of inner wheel, the controller increases the control torque of the electronic limited slip differential and transfers the inner wheel driving force to the outer wheel of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10794622
    Abstract: A water pocket with an open top side is filled with water, mounted in a regular position on a supporting frame, and tilts to supply the water stored in the water pocket to an ice making tray, thereby easily supplying a required amount of water to the ice making tray. A refrigerator includes an ice making tray provided to linearly move with rotation when ice of the ice making tray is separated, or includes a holding preventing member which prevents the ice from being caught by a lower ice making tray, thereby improving a forward-and-backward width of an ice maker. It is possible to easily withdraw ice stored in an ice bucket by pushing an ice discharge button in a state in which the ice bucket is not separated.
