A door handle for a vehicle door of a motor vehicle includes a carrier plate, a handle part, and at least one lighting device arranged in/on the carrier plate with at least one lighting element and/or a light guide element. The lighting element and/or the light guide element are adjustable between an extended position of use and a retracted non-use position. The at least one lighting element and/or the at least one light guide element projects, in its extended position of use, into a recess of the handle part and thus illuminates at least parts of the handle part and/or of an area surrounding the handle part.

A vehicle door handle assembly may include a handle housing disposed inside a door panel; a slider slidably mounted in the handle housing to be movable between a first position and a second position of the handle housing; a handle member pivotally connected to the slider through a connecting arm, and configured of being movable between a rest position and an actuating position with respect to the door panel; and an inertia locking mechanism including a blocking lever pivotally mounted to the handle housing, and a weight mounted on the blocking lever, wherein the inertia locking mechanism may prevent the handle member from moving to the actuating position by an unwanted force caused by the collision/impact of the vehicle.

Door handle assembly for a vehicle has a handle (10) mounted on a handle support (60) and one or more rest positions and at least one release position. The assembly has at least three different positions, —a flush or retracted position, in which the handle (10) is flush or retracted with respect to an outer door surface, —a deployed position, in which the handle (10) protrudes or protrudes to a greater extent than in the retracted position, —and the at least one release position. The handle (10) is connected to the handle support (60) via two links (21, 22) and rotational joints wherein one joint (22.1) also has a translational degree of freedom wherein a movement of the joint (22.1) along the translational degree of freedom is configured to mechanically actuate the door lock (120) or door lock (120) function.

A motor vehicle door includes a door handle unit fixed on the inside on the door edge opposite a door hinge. The door handle unit is motorically pivotable between a folded-in and a folded-out position. In the folded-in position when the vehicle door is closed the door handle unit is arranged behind the vehicle door. In the folded-out position, the door handle unit protrudes laterally outwards by surrounding the door edge and is grippable to open the door. A door mover unit is configured to move the vehicle door in a closed state out of a closed position into a stand-by position, in which the door handle unit can be moved from the folded-in position into the folded-out position. A control unit has a signal input which, upon obtaining the opening signal, controls the door mover unit to move into the stand-by position and controls the door handle unit to pivot into the folded-out position.

A flush handle for a vehicle door having a slider, a handle unit and a linear motion conversion mechanism. The linear motion conversion mechanism includes a linear motion conversion unit and a driving unit. The linear motion conversion unit includes at least first and second inclined long holes, and at least one pin, configured to couple to the handle unit, and slide along the inclined long holes. The pin includes a first pin configured to slide in the first inclined long hole and a second pin configured to slide in the second inclined long hole. The handle unit includes an extension portion, configured to couple to the first pin, and adjust a distance between the first pin and an outer surface of the handle unit.

Emergency access device for a vehicle opening leaf, having: a deployment arm that rotates between a first, retracted angular position and a second, deployed angular position; a graspable pull rod that is connected to a lock actuator and that has an end protruding from the deployment arm, the graspable pull rod being movable between a position attached to the deployment arm and a position detached from the deployment arm; a retention needle; an electric ejector; a mechanical ejector designed to release the deployment arm from its retracted position, the mechanical ejector having a trigger designed to move the retention needle from its blocking position to its releasing position.

A vehicle includes a door-operating mechanism for selectively releasing a vehicle door from a closed position. A door handle is in communication with the door operating mechanism. The door handle is operable between a flush position, wherein an outer face of the door handle is flush with a portion of an exterior surface of the vehicle door such that only the outer face of the door handle is accessible, and an extended position, wherein the outer face of the door handle is moved away from the exterior surface of the vehicle door such that a rear surface of the door handle is accessible. A heating mechanism is in thermal communication with the outer face of the door handle and the exterior surface of the vehicle door. A remote transmitter is in communication with the heating mechanism, wherein the remote transmitter selectively activates the heating mechanism.

Door configurations having integrated mechanisms for opening and releasing for closure, with elements of these mechanisms located on or largely on the body of the door itself. In some embodiments of the disclosure, a door has a handle and two release mechanisms coupled thereto, one of which releases a lock and allows the door to open, and the other of which releases a catch and allows the door to close. The two release mechanisms are coupled to the handle such that manipulating the handle in one direction actuates one of the release mechanisms but not the other, and manipulating the handle in the other direction actuates the other release mechanism. In this manner, manipulating the handle in one direction opens the door, and manipulating the handle in the other direction closes the door.

A door handle assembly for a vehicle may include a door handle, a handle housing configured to provide an accommodation space for the door handle, a drive lever rotatably coupled to the handle housing and rotatably coupled to the door handle, and an actuator configured to transmit a driving force to the drive lever to deploy the door handle from the handle housing. In particular, the door handle is deployed from the handle housing as the drive lever is rotated with respect to the handle housing by the driving force of the actuator, and the door handle is rotated with respect to the drive lever.

The opening control includes a handle pivotally mounted on a support prone to adopt a pushed position, an intermediate rest position and an ejected position as well as electrical and mechanical means for driving in movement the handle and coupled with the handle of the vehicle such that the application of a predefined force on the handle causes the mechanical or electrical activation. It includes a hard point crossing means configured to define a pattern of evolution of a value of a force applied on the handle as a function of a push-in stroke of the handle between its rest position and the pushed position, including a crossing of a hard point separating first and second portions of the stroke.
