Various embodiments provide a method for operating an opening mechanism which serves for the opening of a motor vehicle lock, wherein the opening mechanism is formed separately from the motor vehicle lock and, for the opening, is coupled mechanically to the motor vehicle lock, wherein the opening mechanism is assigned a control arrangement, a switchable coupling arrangement, an actuating lever and an electric drive arrangement. It is proposed that the overall pivoting region of the actuating lever starting from the starting position comprises a first pivoting region and a second pivoting region following the latter, wherein the motorized opening operation can be triggered by means of the drive arrangement by means of an actuating stroke over the first pivoting region.

Disclosed is a vehicle door checker that includes: an open lever configured to rotate a pawl in an open direction; a handle open lever having a link pin insertion groove; an inner handle lever connected to an inner handle cable and including a first contact end and a second contact end configured to come into contact with the handle open lever while being rotated in the open direction; an inner link lever configured to come into contact with the first contact end when the inner handle lever is rotated in the open direction; an inner lock lever configured to share a rotation axis with the inner link lever; an elastic member fastened between the inner link lever and the inner lock lever; and a link including a link pin interlocked with rotation of the inner lock lever in an unlocking direction.

A body system determines whether or not entrance doors of all seats or entrance doors of rear seats are unlocked. When determination as YES is made, the body system determines whether or not a trunk operate command received by a VCIB from an ADK (ADS) indicates an “Open/Close Request” for a trunk door. When determination as YES is made, the body system determines whether or not it keeps receiving the “Open/Close Request” for one second. When determination as YES is made, the body system starts an action of the trunk door.

Vehicle door unlocking control methods, apparatuses, and systems for vehicles. The vehicle door unlocking control method can be carried out by the apparatuses and systems and includes: obtaining an acquisition trigger signal; controlling, based on the acquisition trigger signal, a first camera assembly disposed on a vehicle to acquire a first face image of a user; performing feature matching between the first face image and a pre-stored second face image; performing living body detection on the first face image; and sending a vehicle door unlocking instruction to at least one vehicle door lock of the vehicle in response to successful feature matching and successful living body detection. This door unlocking solution may be used to provide face-based vehicle door opening in a safe, convenient and reliable manner.
