Motor vehicle lock
The invention relates to a motor vehicle lock comprising a locking mechanism provided with a rotary latch and at least one pawl, a rotary movement of the rotary latch can be blocked by means of the pawl, a drive device by means of which the pawl can be transferred from the locked position into a release position for the locking mechanism, and an adjusting device (9). A motor vehicle part (4) accommodating the vehicle lock can be moved from the closed position into an open position by means of the adjusting device (9). Said adjusting device (9) maintains the motor vehicle part (4) in the open position such that the motor vehicle part (4) can be prevented from opening automatically from the open position.
Power door presenter with latching feature
A power door presenter system for pivoting a vehicle door relative to a vehicle body between a closed position and a partially open deployed position includes a presenter assembly mounted to one of the vehicle body and the vehicle door with an auxiliary striker fixed to the other one of the vehicle body and the vehicle door. The presenter assembly has an extensible member configured for movement between retracted and extended positions corresponding to the closed and deployed positions and an auxiliary latch mechanism moveable between latched engagement with the auxiliary striker when the vehicle door is indicated as not being under manual control of a user to allow automated return of the vehicle door to the closed position and unlatched engagement from the auxiliary striker when the vehicle door is indicated as being under manual control of the user to allow the door to be moved to a fully opened position.
DOUBLE ACTION VEHICLE LATCH
A closure system for a vehicle provided with a vehicle body and a closure is provided. The closure system may include an actuator, a catch, and a release lever. The actuator may be configured to move in a first direction between a first actuator position and a second actuator position. The catch may be coupled to the actuator and configured to move from a first catch position to a second catch position to move the closure form a first closure position to a second closure position when the actuator moves from the first actuator position to the second actuator position. The release lever may be coupled to the actuator and configured to move the catch from the second catch position to a third catch position when the actuator moves from the second actuator position to a third actuation position.
Lock system for a motor vehicle
A lock system for a motor vehicle includes a handle for opening a door or hatch, a drive device coupled to the handle, and a control device which is suited for checking an access code of a mobile ID transmitter, coupled to the drive device. A lock device is provided for the door or hatch. The handle can move between a non-use position in which it is flush with an outer contour of the door or hatch and an opening position in which it protrudes at least in part from the outer contour. The drive device is coupled and designed for opening or closing the door or hatch such that it moves along a movement path along which the drive device extends the handle into its opening position or retracts it into its non-use position, as well as actuating the lock device.
LINEAR CINCHING SPINDLE
A linear drive assembly for use with a vehicle including a vehicle body and a closure is provided. The linear drive assembly may include a stationary portion and a translating portion. The translating portion may include a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion may be configured to pivot and translate about a vehicle attachment member. The second end portion may be configured to pivot and translate about a closure attachment member and be coupled to a cable operatively coupled to an actuator. When the second end translates about the closure attachment member, the cable may be pulled to actuate the actuator.
INTEGRATED DOOR RELEASE AND PRESENT SYSTEM
A system is used to control access into a vehicle having a vehicle body defining a vehicle interior, a vehicle exterior, and an access opening. The vehicle also has an access door for selectively covering and uncovering at least a portion of the access opening. The system includes a latch configured to selectively fasten the door to the vehicle body and release the door therefrom. The system also includes a cable configured to operate the latch and thereby release the door from the vehicle body. The system additionally includes a door presenter configured to shift the door away from the vehicle body. The system also includes a mechanism configured to sequentially actuate the cable and the door presenter. The system further includes an electric motor configured to power the mechanism such that the door is shifted away from the vehicle body by the door presenter after the door is released.
ACTIVATION DEVICE FOR AT LEAST TWO SPATIALLY SEPARATED MOTOR VEHICLE CLOSURE UNITS
An activation device for at least two spatially separated motor vehicle closure units, for example for a tailgate latch on the one hand and a fuel filler door latch on the other hand. The activation device possesses a linear drive with a linear actuator. Dependent on its activation direction, the linear drive impinges either the first motor vehicle closure unit or the other second motor vehicle closure unit. According to the invention, dependent on its actuating direction, the linear actuator impinges at least a pivotable activation lever to interact with either the first motor vehicle closure unit or the other second motor vehicle closure unit.
Component-integrated tailgate handle switch for vehicle
A vehicle is provided that includes a wiper-integrated tailgate handle switch mounted to a window glass of a tailgate. The wiper-integrated tailgate handle switch includes a tailgate handle switch, which is configured to press a current carrying switch arranged in the internal space thereof using the height of an insertion space defined by a difference in height between transverse and longitudinal bodies of a handle switch housing, and a wiper. Therefore, a degree of freedom in design of the tailgate is increased which improves the aesthetic of the tailgate by removing the tailgate handle switch from the tailgate.
Reversible activation unit for alternate impingement of two separate motor vehicle functional elements
The object of the invention is a reversible activation unit for the alternate impingement of two separate motor vehicle functional elements (1, 2), in particular two motor vehicle door latches (1, 2). The activation unit possesses a single motor (3, 4) and two connecting elements (8, 10). The motor (3, 4) impinges either the distanced first functional element (1) via the connecting element (8) or the distanced second functional element (2) via the second connecting element (10) dependent on its working direction. According to the invention, the first connecting element (8) is connected to a first lever (7) and the second connecting element (10) to a second lever (9). The respective lever (7, 9) is impinged dependent on the working direction of the motor (3, 4) which preferably works in a linear manner. Furthermore, the two levers (7, 9) are connected via an interposed spring (15).
DOOR OPENING/ CLOSING DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A door opening/closing device drives a slide door to a locked state under authentication communication between an authentication ECU of a vehicle side and a mobile device, when the slide door is in a closed and unlocked state and the presence of a user is detected by a detection unit.
