An inside handle device of a vehicle includes a handle base and a cable holding case. The inside handle device is connected to a door latch device fixed to a door via a cable device in which an inner cable is inserted into an outer cable, and is configured to remotely control the door latch device. The handle base is configured to swingably support a handle body. The handle body includes an operation portion capable of being operated from a front surface at one end portion and a cable connection recessed portion opening to a back surface direction at another end portion. The cable holding case includes a cable fixing portion configured to fix one end of the outer cable.

A closure latch assembly for a motor vehicle closure panel includes a housing; a ratchet pivotably mounted for movement between striker capture and a striker release positions; a release lever, and a pawl assembly. Pawl assembly includes a first and second pawls. First pawl is pivotably mounted to housing for movement about a first pivot axis between ratchet checking and ratchet releasing positions in response to movement of release lever. Second pawl is pivotably mounted to first pawl for movement about a second pivot axis spaced from first pivot axis. Second pawl is engaged with ratchet locking surface while first pawl is in the ratchet checking position to releasably maintain ratchet in the striker capture position. Second pawl is pivotal relative to first pawl about second pivot axis when first pawl pivots toward the ratchet releasing position to allow ratchet to pivot to the striker release position.

An operation relay device for a motor-vehicle door latch includes a base fixed to a door panel of a door, an operation handle pivotably supported to the base, and a link lever transmitting an opening operation by the operation handle to a door latch. The base includes a plurality of fixing parts, and the operation handle is pivotably supported at a position deviating from a center in a front-rear direction on the base, so that a center of gravity of the operation relay device is in a side of the deviating position. The fixing parts except a specific fixing part are respectively fixed to the door panel by a bolt. The specific fixing part is a temporary fixing piece that is integrally formed on the upper portion of the base to be capable of engaging with an engaging hole formed on the door panel.

A vehicle door lock device includes: a remote control device that is provided in the middle of an operation transmitting system between a lock device, which binds a door of a vehicle such that the door becomes not able to move, and a door handle, in which a connection member that absorbs an excessive operation force by being elastically deformed in a direction in which the operation force is transmitted is interposed between a transmitting member that transmits an operation force input to the door handle and an input lever on the remote control device side to which the operation force is input via the transmitting member.

A mechanism for opening a vehicle door, comprising: a door opening component for opening the vehicle door, a cover plate, and a first fixed rotational axle. The door opening component is disposed in an operating cavity. The cover plate covers the operating cavity such that the cover plate is concealed in the door. The first fixed rotational axle is mounted adjacent to the operating cavity. A side edge of the cover plate is mounted on the first fixed rotational axle such that when an external force is applied to the cover plate, the cover plate is rotatable about the first fixed rotational axle to enter the operating cavity such that the door opening component is accessible to an operator via the operating cavity to open the vehicle door.
