Abstract

A bush may include an inner tube, an outer tube, and an intermediate tube portion made from a compliant material and arranged radially between the inner tube and the outer tube. A radially outer surface of the inner tube and a radially inner surface of the outer tube may each have at least one protruding rib running in a circumferential direction of the bush. The intermediate tube portion may be shaped complementary to the outer surface of the inner tube and the inner surface of the outer tube, so as to fill a space therebetween. The protruding ribs may be configured to cause externally applied radial or axial forces to propagate as substantially normal stress in the intermediate tube portion.

Disclosed are an automatic leveling system and a method for a headlamp, which accurately detects whether a road is uphill or downhill, and a lateral gradient condition of the road. The system and method also automatically adjust a light radiating direction through the headlamp according to the road. Further, a sensor capable of scanning a road surface and a lamp module radiating light are integrated with each other, so a light irradiation position is accurately and rapidly adjusted according to a road condition, thus improving the accuracy and the reliability of the light irradiation position. Further, as the light irradiation position of a headlamp is adjusted by comparing image capturing information obtained through an image capturing device with sensing information obtained through a laser sensor, the deterioration of the aiming accuracy due to the mounting state of a camera is prevented.

The control method includes pre-processing that rotates an input image, which has been photographed by the camera portion, to match with representative model image. The control method includes estimating the fastening portion through an inference process through a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm-based image classification work on a video input image of a same fastening portion finished with the pre-processing work. The control method also includes setting a torque value that is matched with a recognized fastening portion when a probability value of the fastening portion in the inference process exceeds a predetermined reference ratio.
