A door opening and closing device includes a motor that outputs driving force causing a back door of a vehicle to be opened or closed, and a controller that controls the motor. The controller executes automatic opening and closing control for automatically opening or closing the back door by the motor, and if the controller detects a stop command causing the back door to be stopped when the automatic opening and closing control is being executed, the controller decreases a target velocity of the back door at a predetermined deceleration 1 until the back door stops.

A method for use when retrofitting a panel of a storage compartment having a mechanical latch assembly with an electric latch assembly includes removing the mechanical latch assembly from the panel of the storage compartment; and preparing the panel of the storage compartment to receive a potted insert. The preparation may include defining and marking a location to receive the potted insert. The method may include removing a portion of the panel to define a potted insert cavity and inserting the potted insert through the potted insert cavity of the panel. The method may also include applying at least one of a potting compound and an adhesive to bond the potted insert to the panel and coupling a portion of the electric latch assembly to the potted insert.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock comprising a locking mechanism, at least one locking lever (3) and an electric drive (5, 6, 7) for the locking mechanism. In normal operation, said electric drive (5, 6, 7) acts upon the locking mechanism for an electric opening. Additionally, the electric drive (5, 6, 7) allows the locking mechanism to be mechanically opened at least for an emergency operation. According to the invention, said locking lever (3) remains, in the normal operation, in the locked position, also when opened electrically.

A door opening/closing device includes an operation handle, a detection unit provided in the operation handle and configured to detect a contact state of a user with the operation handle, a door driving unit configured to open or close a door, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to determine that a first operation involving a direction is a user operation in which a user comes into contact with the operation handle, when the detection unit detects the first operation and a second operation. The control unit is configured to control the door driving unit and open or close the door based on the user operation.

A door device includes a door configured to open or close a door opening formed in a vehicle body, a guide pin provided at a lower end portion of the door and extending toward a lower end portion of the vehicle body, and a guide module provided on the lower end portion of the vehicle body and slidably coupled with the guide pin as the guide pin is inserted in the guide module.
