The invention relates to a double-leaf vehicle door device comprising at least the following: two door leaves, each of which can be moved between an open position and a closed position in the form of a respective end position and into any intermediate position between the first open position and the first closed position, wherein a first movement of the first door leaf between the first open position and the first closed position is carried out without mechanically coupling the first door leaf to the second door leaf in contrast to a second movement of the second door leaf between the second open position and the second closed position, and a common locking device is provided which locks the first door leaf in the closed position when the first door leaf is located in the closed position and which locks the second door leaf in the closed position when the second door leaf is in the closed position. A pre-locking function is provided such that of the first door and the second door leaf, the door leaf which first reaches the closed position is held in the closed position at least until the other door leaf has also reached the closed position, and the locking device is additionally designed to only then lock or become capable of locking the first door leaf and the second door leaf.

A vehicle opening panel emergency access device, having: a body; a graspable pull member that is able to move between: a retracted position and a deployed position; a retention pin that is designed to occupy: a locking position and a position for releasing the pull member; an electric ejector designed to control the sliding of the retention pin; a control unit for control according to two modes: an unlocking mode in which the electric ejector drives the retention pin from its locking position to its release position; and a percussion mode in which the electric ejector drives the retention pin in oscillation between its locking position and an intermediate position between the locking position and the release position.

An opening/closing body control device for vehicles that comprises a lock device and a control device. The control device comprises: a reverse control unit that executes reverse control that rotates a rotating member in reverse, after closing control has been completed; and a position detection unit that detects the rotation position of the rotating member, on the basis of the on/off state of a neutral switch. The position detection unit is capable of detecting whether the rotation position of the rotating member is in a closed area, a release area, or a neutral area. The reverse control unit does not execute reverse control if the rotation position of the rotating member is in the neutral area, when the closing control has been completed.

A power-operated vehicle closure system includes a vehicle door equipped with a cinch assembly having a power actuator and a closure latch assembly having a latch mechanism and a latch cinch mechanism. Actuation of the power actuator in a first direction provides a power cinch operation to cause the latch cinch mechanism to cinch the latch mechanism. Actuation of the power actuator in a second direction provides a power ice breaking operation to cause the latch cinch mechanism to open the latch mechanism. The system includes a controller that receives signals indicating the positions of a ratchet and a pawl of the latch mechanism and controls the power actuator to operate the latch cinch mechanism in either the first or second direction.

This opening/closing body control device for vehicles comprises a lock device and a control device. The control device comprises: a reversal control unit; a reversal stopping unit; a first error detection unit that detects a first state change error in a first neutral switch, when reverse rotation of a rotating member has been stopped on the basis of a change in the on/off state of a second neutral switch during reverse control after closing control; and a second error detection unit that detects a second state change error in the first neutral switch, when reverse rotation of the rotating member is stopped on the basis of a change in the on/off state of the second neutral switch during reverse control after release control.

A motor vehicle lock which is equipped with a locking mechanism consisting substantially of a catch and a pawl. Also provided is a sensor arrangement associated with the locking mechanism comprising a fixed sensor and a sensing element that influences signals of the sensor and follows the locking mechanism, or vice versa. The sensor generates at least two different signals associated with the presence and absence of the sensing element in the region of influence of the sensor. According to the invention, the single sensing element also produces at least one additional third signal of the single sensor in accordance with its position in relation to the sensor.
