A retractable handle arrangement includes a handle movable between stowed and deployed states, a motor and transmission mechanism arranged to couple the motor to the handle for moving the handle from the stowed state to the deployed state when the motor is driven in a first direction, and to modulate the force exerted on the handle and the speed at which the handle is deployed as the handle travels from the stowed state to the deployed state.

A vehicle capable of improving the opening and closing operability of a side door includes a lever that projects to an outer side in a vehicle width direction from a storage position at which the handle lever is flush with the surface of a door outer panel, a position switch that detects the movement position of the lever, a latch mechanism that has a latch engageable with a striker in conjunction with the lever, a latch switch that detects whether the latch is in a full-latch state, a driving device capable of changing the position of the lever in a range from the storage position to a gripping position, and a CPU capable of controlling the driving device, in which the CPU forcibly changes the position of the lever to the gripping position when the latch is in a half-latch state and the lever is at the storage position.

A locking system for a motor vehicle door leaf includes a door leaf and a handle of the flush type that has at least one bracket, a gripping lever, a transmission lever, a first reversible inertial safety system, and a second irreversible inertial safety system.

An outer door panel and an inner door panel are fixed to one another defining a cavity therebetween. A door handle assembly is fixedly attached to the outer door panel, with at least a portion of the door handle assembly overlaying an inboard surface of the outer door panel within the cavity. An inboard portion of the door handle assembly has a connection structure. An upwardly extending bracket within the cavity is fixed to an upper end and a lower end of at least one of the inner door panel or the outer door panel. The upwardly extending bracket is spaced apart from the door handle assembly. A vibration absorbing member has a first end fixed to the connection structure of the door handle assembly and a second end attached to the upwardly extending bracket at a location spaced apart from upper and lower ends of the upwardly extending bracket.

An electronic handle for a vehicle door includes a bracket, a grip movably mounted on the bracket between a first position and a second position, the grip configured to move from the first position to the second position when a pulling force is applied on the grip by a user, a magnetic retainer configured to hold the grip in the first position, an electronic system configured to electronically cooperate with a latch for opening the vehicle door when activated in a first configuration corresponding to a normal use, and a back-up system configured to cooperate with the latch for opening the vehicle door when activated in a second configuration corresponding to an emergency or a lack of electrical power. The electronic system is configured to activate in response to a detection of a pulling force applied on the grip that is lower than a predetermined force.

A vehicle door for a motor vehicle has a support part arranged on an inside of a covering of the vehicle door. An outer door handle is arranged on an outside of the covering for actuating the vehicle door. The outer door handle is fixed on the support part. An elevation is provided on the support part on a fixing side of the support part facing towards the covering for forming a positioning aid. The elevation is received in the vehicle door in an aperture in the covering tailored to the elevation. Here, the support part and the covering are tailored to each other in such a way that they are connected to each other in a form fit manner in at least one form fit zone.

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.
