The control comprises a handle flush mounted in a support and a kinematic chain for driving the handle in movement, comprising at least one rotary element for driving the handle in angular movement and at least one driving member configured to accumulate mechanical energy by mechanical work during a push-in action of the handle and to restitute mechanical energy to the drive kinematic chain after release of the handle. The handle includes a means for stabilizing the kinematic chain configured to limit the angulation of the rotary element of the chain during the push-in of the handle.

An electronic latch includes a housing, a motor having an output shaft, a gear arrangement comprising at least one gear that is configured to be driven by the output shaft of the motor, a rack coupled to the gear arrangement and configured to move in response to motion of the gear arrangement, and at least one pawl or pawl connector that is connected to the rack. Motion of the rack causes or permits the at least one pawl or pawl connector to move between (i) a withdrawn position and (ii) a deployed position in which the pawl or pawl connector is extended further from the housing as compared with the withdrawn position.

A vehicle door operating device including: a closing latch unit holding a door in a closed position, wherein the door is supported on a vehicle body to open and close; a fully opening latch unit holding the door in a fully open position; an actuator having a motor; an emergency handle operated manually from a vehicle interior side; and an operation relay unit which operates the closing latch unit and the fully opening latch unit to be unlatched respectively when driven by the actuator, and operates the closing latch unit to be unlatched when manually operated by the emergency handle such that the closing latch unit is held in an unlatched state.

A vehicle latch, including: a claw rotatably mounted to a pin; a pawl rotatably mounted to pin; a single motor for electrically releasing the claw of the latch and for electrically moving the latch into an emergency mode wherein the latch can be mechanically opened via a handle operably coupled to the latch.

Embodiments provide a B-pillarless opposite sliding door in which a hook fastening means is used instead of an upper latch to be installed at an upper end of the B pillarless opposite sliding door. An upper end of a door B-pillar beam, which serves to support a B-pillar, can fastened to a roof part of a vehicle body to ensure a ceiling strength performance when the hook fastening means is applied.

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.

An electric lock for a motor vehicle opening leaf includes a bolt, a pawl, a central opening lever, and an actuator with three abutment positions and capable of interacting with the central opening lever, the actuator including a driver. The driver includes a toothed driving wheel and a driven wheel. The driven wheel includes a second driving member, a motor intended for driving the actuator, a central transfer lever able to be moved by the driven wheel of the driver by the second driving member and the movement of which is capable of being transmitted to the central opening lever in order to move the pawl into its retracted angular position. One of the wheels of the driver includes a first circle-arc shaped oblong slot and the other wheel includes a first driving member extending through the first circle-arc shaped oblong slot.

A power latch assembly for a vehicle door of a motor vehicle includes a ratchet configured for movement between striker capture and striker release positions, wherein the ratchet is biased toward the striker release position, and a pawl configured for movement between a ratchet holding position, whereat the pawl maintains the ratchet in the striker capture position, and a ratchet releasing position, whereat the pawl releases the ratchet to the striker release position. A powered actuator is energizable to move the pawl from the ratchet holding position to the ratchet releasing position, and a multistage mechanism operably connecting an output of the power actuator to at least one of the pawl and the ratchet has at least two power takeoffs, with each power takeoff being configured to apply a different torque output to at least one of the pawl and/or the ratchet.
