Since a demand for an extensive range of earthmoving equipment like a hydraulic excavator with a capacity of 85tons has been asked in construction fields, a performance of its track drive unit has to be verified experimentally. Among the verification of the performances, a torque measurement is at issue, in which a torque meter is utilized widely. However, the very large scaled torque meter is necessary when a discharged torque from the track drive unit is increased significantly. In addition, the price for experimental set-up of a torque meter is too high due to its limitation of the geometry such as long length, and a break down in operation occurs frequently. In this study, to measure a high torque up to 200,000Nm, a new technique was proposed as an alternative of conventional measurement by using a torque meter. The new technique enables to measure the high torque stably in a compact space via a torque arm and two load cells. The experimental results showed a propriety of the proposed torque measuring technique for a track drive unit with very large capacity.

본 로봇은 wheeled type과 legged type의 장점을 함께 가지고 있으므로 주행 속도가 빠르며 환경적응력이 좋다. 기존 로봇과 비교할때 Y.Icihkawa등이 개발한 HLV와 가장 유사하지만 모터 3개로 6개의 바퀴-다리 유닛을 구동하므로 모터15개로 5개의 바퀴-다리유닛을 구동하는 Ichikawa HLV와 동력전달구조에서 많이 상이하다. 뿐만아니라 본 로봇은 3개의 모터만 사용했기 때문에 주행제어가 훨씬 간단하고 제작 비가 저렴하며 장애물 및 계단승강시 걸음새가 훨씬 간단하다.(Ichikawa HLV 경우 뒷 쪽 2개의 다리를 동시에 들 수 없기 때문에 계단 승강시 몸체 회전을 적절하게 섞어야 한다.)

전기자동차 (EV)에서 구동용 모터의 토크 제어를 위한 인버터에는 제어 연산 및 고장 진단 기능을 수행하기 위한 MCU가 있으며, MCU는 상위 제어기 차량 제어 유닛 (VCU)에게 현재 모터 및 인버터의 상태를 주기적으로 전달하고, 현재 차량 주행에 적합한 토크 지령을 받아 토크 제어를 수행하게 된다. 이를 위해 MCU는 전류, 전압 및 위치 센서의 값을 읽어 제어를 수행하게 되며, 제어의 결과 값으로 pulse width modulation (PWM)을 생성하여 이를 통해 모터에 전압을 공급하게 된다. 즉 차량의 구동에 있어 PWM 신호는 가장 중요한 부분이다. 하지만 생산 불량 또는 진동에 의한 납땜 불량 또는 MCU 전원 고장 등으로 MCU에 고장이 발생하게 되면 이상 PWM을 생성하게 되고 정상적인 토크 제어가 불가능해진다. 이때 안전하게 EV를 정지 시키는 알고리즘이 필요하게 되며, 이를 수행 할 supervisor control unit (SCU)가 인버터 컨트롤 보드에 추가되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 고속으로 주행하던 차량에서 메인 MCU가 고장 날 경우에 안전하게 EV를 정차시키는 방법에 대해 다루었다.

In this study, an automatic idle stop control system was developed, which automatically stops the idle state engine as it detects the stop state of the car for several seconds and restarts the stopped engine with the driver's electrical signal. It is composed of microprocessor and the related electronic circuits and communicates with ECU and TCU. With accurate and confirmed operating performance, the control system was equipped in the test car which was proceeded the ECE15+EUDC mode test. It is confirmed that the control system, ASG has much favourable effects on reducing the fuel consumption and harmful exhaust emissions.

The unit modular system is a type of prefabricated construction method that completes the building by uniting the modular units on site by transporting the unit module structure manufactured in the factory to the site. Since the unit module structure is not only the frame but also the finished form including the inner and outer materials, it is most likely to be brought into the field. Therefore, not only the damage of the inner and outer materials but also deformation of frame structure due to the vibration generated during the transportation of the vehicle, And it is necessary to take appropriate methods when transporting the module structure. However, there are no methods to prevent modular structure damage due to vehicle vibration in domestic and foreign modular transportation guidelines or standards. In this study, we investigate the vibrations during the vehicle transportation of the module structure through the road driving test, identify the vibration frequency characteristics of the vehicle through FFT analysis, and propose a vibration reduction methods for module transportation.

This paper studied performance characteristics of hybrid automotive to replace existing fossil fuel vehicles. Specially, about power split type HEV that is T-HEV's drive system when a vehicle drives at steady speed, monitored both output of each engine, motor and generator and battery SOC (state of charge) and analyzed performance characteristic of power transmission system and electricity power parts. This study shows those that acquired and analyzed information from signals between HCU and each controller of actual T- vehicle. From this study, it is confirmed that each conditions of EV and HEV drive can be a improvement with respect to the fuel efficiency of vehicles.

A fuel injection system using an ECU HILS as an alternate to a vehicle test for the fuel injectors was developed. The throttle position, vehicle speed, engine speed, crank position, cam position, intake air flow, and several other sensor signals that are supplied to the ECU were measured and recorded as a data file for a vehicle driven in the FTP-75 mode in a chassis dynamometer. Electric signals that are equivalent to the sensor signals from the vehicle are reconstructed from the recorded data file using data acquisition boards, microprocessors, and computers. All sensor signals are supplied to the ECU with synchronized timing using a computer program. The findings show that the cost and time of vehicle experiments can be reduced using the ECU HILS system. Moreover, the repeatability of the generation of sensor signals can enhance the accuracy of a range of experiment related to vehicle testing. An ECU scanner that scans the sensor signals that are input to the ECU through a serial port was used to assess the accuracy of the reconstructed signals. The scanning results show good agreement with the reconstructed input signals. Injectors were connected to the ECU HILS system and were driven by the system to measure the quantity of injected fuel.

In this paper, the alignment and navigation results by INGU(Inertial Navigation and Guidance Unit) onboard software and by Inertial Explorer which is a post-processing software specialized for IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit) are compared for identification of inertial sensor error models and estimation of alignment and navigation errors for KSLV-I INGU. For verification of the IMU error estimated by Kalman Filter of Inertial Explorer, the covariance parameters of inertial sensor error model state are identified by using stochastic error model of inertial sensors estimated by Allan variance and the alignment and navigation test with static condition and the land navigation test with dynamic condition are carried out. The validity of inertial sensor model for KSLV-I INGU is verified by comparison the alignment and navigation results of INGU on-board software and Inertial Explorer.
