A handle device for a motor vehicle door includes a door handle, which is hinged at both ends to an electrically driven movement kinematic system. A first end of the door handle is rotatable outwards via a motor-operated pivot lever. A push rod is hinged to the pivot lever, the other end of which is hinged to a locking lever, which acts on a toggle lever pair. One end of a first toggle lever is mounted on the housing side and one end of a second toggle lever is hinged to a second end of the door handle. The locking lever is designed, in a standby position, to block a movement of the door handle back into a rest position and to permit a movement into an opening position.

A motor vehicle lock, more particularly for a vehicle rear door, having a lock cover and a locking mechanism consisting of substantially rotary latches and at least one pawl, furthermore having at least one coupling lever, and at least one electric drive, wherein the coupling lever can take up different positions and interacts with a drive element of the drive and a central locking mechanism, wherein, to take up its positions, the coupling lever is connected to the drive element. The drive element and/or lock cover have/has a latching contour having at least two position holders wherein at least one position holder is designed asymmetrically and a spring mechanism is provided, wherein the spring mechanism cooperates with the latching contour, as a result of which the coupling lever can be positioned in the different positions.

A drive unit for motor vehicle applications, in particular motor vehicle closing devices. The drive unit comprises an electric motor and at least one drive element driven by the electric motor. In addition, an actuation lever that cooperates with the drive element is provided. The drive element and/or the actuation lever are advantageously designed to be able to rotate about an axis. A rotatably mounted intermediate element is provided between the drive element and the actuation lever. According to the invention, the intermediate element is in the form of a friction-reducing rolling element.
