A jolt control system is disclosed wherein an output torque alteration control is effected when an automatic transmission undergoes a gear shift operation and the output torque alteration control is suspended upon detecting a predetermined change in throttle opening degree of a throttle valve of an engine.

A closed-loop system for compensating for an undesired drop in idling speed upon manually shifting a manual valve from a neutral range position to a drive range position include detecting the instance when a start-up friction element is brought into engagemment after the above-mentioned range select operation. The engine torque is increased in response to a torque-up command signal generating at t...

The utility model provides an improved natural circulation type solar water heater. A heat collector and a coil radiator arranged in a heat insulating water tank form a heat-collecting heat-exchanging loop which is filled with the working substance with low boiling point and low price. As the latent heat of phase change is utilized as the heat exchanging mode, the utility model which has the advan...
