The invention relates to a motor vehicle lock, in particular a motor vehicle door lock, which is equipped with a locking mechanism (1, 2) composed, essentially, of a rotary latch (1) and a pawl (2). Furthermore, a securing device (5, 6, 7, 8) and and an emergency actuation element (9, 10, 11) for the securing device are realized. The securing device (5, 6, 7, 8) has at least one securing lever (5), which can be acted upon both by a first motor drive (7) and by an emergency actuation lever (10) as part of the emergency actuation element (9, 10, 11). According to the invention, the first securing lever (5) has a spring (5a) for positioning the first securing lever.

A vehicle door lock apparatus has a first housing superimposed on a second housing that includes a base wall, a first concave wall projecting from the base wall, an engaging part formed in or on the first concave wall, and an opening that provides a path from the outside into an inner housing chamber. A transmission cable includes an inner cable slidably housed in an outer cable. A portion of the inner cable is exposed from a first end of the outer cable, passes through the opening, and is coupled to a rotatable element disposed in the inner housing chamber via a linkage. A casing cap that surrounds an end of the outer cable has a contact part that contacts the first concave wall in a second direction and an engaged part that engages with the engaging part in the second direction when the contact part contacts the first concave wall.

A vehicle latch, including: an override mechanism, the override mechanism having: a central door lock sector; a double lock sector; a double lock link, the double lock link operably coupling the central door lock sector to the double lock sector; a key cylinder; and a key cylinder link, the key cylinder link operably coupling the key cylinder to the central door lock sector.

Disclosed is a door locking device for manually/physically locking a vehicle door from inside a vehicle, especially a cab door of a truck, comprising a housing including locking members movable between an unlocked position and a locked position. A first lever arm is partly rotatable connected to the housing and a second lever arm is partly rotatable connected to the other end of the first lever arms. A first spring is striving to keep the first lever arm onto or in the housing and a second spring is striving to keep the second lever arm against or in level with the first lever arm and/or in the housing. The second lever arm is provided with a recess by which the first and second lever arms may be pulled out, operated, from their folded position on/in the housing and/or door, by the user/driver, and hooked on/around a rigid locking element/handle.

In a vehicle door lock apparatus, when disposed in an unlocking position, a second lever enables a fork to be displaced to an unlatched position and, in a locking position, it disables the fork from being displaced to the unlatched position. Third levers displace the second lever from the locking position to the unlocking position in response to an unlocking operation being performed on a lock operator and displace the second lever from the unlocking position to the locking position in response to a locking operation being performed on the lock operator. In an unblocking position, a fourth lever linked to the fork separates from the second lever. In a blocking position, the fourth lever contacts the second lever and blocks it from being displaced to the locking position. A fifth lever is linked with the fourth lever, detects the position of the fork, and disconnects or connects a switch.
