A motor vehicle lock, in particular for a vehicle rear door, having a lock cover and a locking mechanism consisting essentially of a rotary latch and at least one pawl, also comprising at least one coupling element, and at least one electric drive, wherein the coupling element can assume different positions, and the coupling element interacts with a drive element of the drive and a central locking mechanism, wherein the coupling element is connected to the drive element in order to take up its positions.

Locking mechanism for bored lock

A locking mechanism for a bored lock has a lock chassis, a locking element, a motor housing, a reversible electric motor, an auger, and a spiral lock spring disposed between the locking element and the motor. The motor may drive the auger in a first or second rotational direction to move the spring towards/away from the motor to reduce/increase spring force on the locking element, thereby moving the locking element to an unlocked/locked position. One of the locking element and motor housing has a projection while the other has a guideway for slideably receiving the projection. The guideway prevents rotation of the locking element with respect to the motor as it moves between locked and unlocked positions. The projection and guideway are interlocked to prevent disassembly of the locking element and motor housing.

MOTOR VEHICLE DRIVE ASSEMBLY

A motor vehicle drive assembly, which is equipped with an electric motor and an output element, which is driven by the electric motor indirectly or directly. Furthermore, a spring associated with the output element is realized, which spring is designed to bidirectionally return the output element. According to the invention, the spring is designed as a spiral spring which is designed to be windable and unwindable proceeding both from the inner spring let and from the outer leg.

MOTOR VEHICLE LOCK
20210025201 · 2021-01-28 ·

A motor vehicle lock, more particularly for a vehicle rear door, having a lock cover and a locking mechanism consisting of substantially rotary latches and at least one pawl, furthermore having at least one coupling lever, and at least one electric drive, wherein the coupling lever can take up different positions and interacts with a drive element of the drive and a central locking mechanism, wherein, to take up its positions, the coupling lever is connected to the drive element. The drive element and/or lock cover have/has a latching contour having at least two position holders wherein at least one position holder is designed asymmetrically and a spring mechanism is provided, wherein the spring mechanism cooperates with the latching contour, as a result of which the coupling lever can be positioned in the different positions.

Symmetrical and Reversible-Clutch Mortise Lock
20200392761 · 2020-12-17 ·

The present invention relates to a symmetrical and reversible-clutch mortise lock comprising a central follower, a pair of symmetrical lateral followers, each one located on one side of the central follower to be activated by square bars of handles, a spacer which makes the movement of the two lateral followers independent and a motor, which connects to an actuation lever and which is activated when an access code is validated. The lock further comprises a clutch housed and guided in an accumulator arm able to move linearly to be housed in both lateral followers such that the corresponding lateral follower, when activated by the motion of the door handle, pushes the clutch until it makes contact with the central follower and activates the latch of the lock.

LOCKING SYSTEM FOR A FUEL COMPARTMENT ASSEMBLY OF A WORK VEHICLE

A locking system for a fuel compartment assembly of a work vehicle, the locking system having a housing at least partially defining a fuel access compartment, a door pivotally coupled to the housing and movable between an opened position, at which the door provides access to the fuel access compartment, and a closed position, at which the door blocks access to the fuel access compartment, and a locking assembly configured to lock the door at the closed position. The locking assembly includes a catch fixed to the housing and positioned within the fuel access compartment, and a latch arm pivotably coupled to the door at a pivot point defined between first and second ends of the latch arm, the pivot point defining a first pivot axis, where the latch arm is configured to be pivoted about the first pivot axis to be selectively engaged and disengaged with the catch.

MOTORIZED TRIM

An exemplary trim assembly comprises a housing assembly, a cam rotatably mounted to the housing assembly, a lift finger slidably mounted in the housing assembly such that the cam is operable to linearly drive the lift finger between a deactuated position and an actuated position, and a locking mechanism operable to selectively retain the lift finger in the deactuated position. The locking mechanism includes an interface member engaged with the lift finger such that movement of the lift finger moves the interface member between a home position and an offset position, a blocking member operable to selectively prevent movement of the interface member from the home position, and a driver configured to move the blocking member between a blocking position and an unblocking position to thereby lock and unlock the trim assembly.
