A method of controlling engine torque according to transmission hydraulic pressure is performed by an engine torque control system of a vehicle. The method includes connecting an engine torque converter to an engine and an automatic transmission of the vehicle, calculating a required turbine torque after confirming an engine torque control condition, deriving and storing a value of turbine torque factor learning through turbine torque factor learning according to shift type and shift time, converting the stored value of turbine torque factor learning into an engine torque control value, and requesting the engine torque control value to be applied to engine output, by an engine torque controller during shifting of the automatic transmission, so that a new turbine torque calculation is performed through a hydraulic pressure reference at the beginning of physical shifting, thereby preventing a shift shock and transmission damage caused by unreasonably excessive or insufficient engine torque.

A method and system for controlling clutch friction elements of an automatic transmission is provided. The method includes retrieving information about shift clutches from a data storage unit and acquiring information required to predict a temperature of a friction element for each shift clutch, deriving a predicted temperature value of a friction element for each shift clutch by using the information about the shift clutches and the information required to predict the temperature of the friction element, predicting whether or not overheating occurs for each shift clutch by comparing the derived predicted temperature value of the friction element for each shift clutch with an allowable temperature set for each shift clutch, and determining a target shift stage while avoiding the overheating clutch with a predicted temperature value exceeding the allowable temperature, through switching to an avoidance shift mode.

In one aspect, a control method and a control apparatus are provided for protecting a damper clutch of a vehicle. In one aspect, the control method of protecting the damper clutch of the vehicle includes determining whether a vehicle state satisfies a condition for operating a damper clutch protection logic, calculating a slip power in real time on the basis of a turbine speed of a torque converter, an engine speed, a capacity coefficient of the torque converter, a clutch torque, and a hydraulic torque when the condition for operating the damper clutch protection logic is satisfied, determining whether a repetitive tip-in/tip-out that is intentionally performed occurs or not on the basis of a change in the slip power that is calculated in real time for a set time, and operating the damper clutch protection logic for restraining a slip of the damper clutch when there is the repetitive tip-in/tip-out that is intentionally performed.

Control method and apparatus for protecting damper clutch of vehicle

An apparatus for replacing a shock absorber for another for automobiles, which supports and compresses a coil spring in a strut type suspension, in correspondence to various dimensions of shock absorbers is provided. The shock absorber replacement apparatus includes: a movable cart having a flat support table, wheels and a handle; an air cylinder installed on the support table; a fixed frame installed on a cylinder head of the air cylinder; a strut fixing unit which fixes and supports a lower portion of the strut onto the fixed frame; a rotatable semi-circular clip arm installed in an end of a piston rod of the air cylinder; a clip which is hung on the upper portion of a coil spring toward an end of the clip arm; and an air opening and closing pedal which opens and closes an air pressure to be introduced to upper and lower cylinder chambers of the air cylinder and thus descends and ascends the piston rod.
