The pop-up apparatus for a vehicle door, includes a door check to be fixed to a vehicle door, a check link having one end supported to be supported on a body so as to be turnable, the check link being configured to perform relative movement with respect to the door check between the one end and another end of the check link while being applied with a pushing force by the door check, a push arm, which is arranged on a side closer to the another end of the check link, and is configured to turn about a rotation axis to apply a force so as to cause the relative movement of the check link in a direction in which the vehicle door is opened, a posture arm configured to turn about the rotation axis, and urging means configured to apply an urging force, which enables integral turning of the push arm and the posture arm, to the push arm and the posture arm when the posture arm turns.

The pop-up apparatus includes a door check, a check link, the check link being configured to perform relative movement with respect to the door check between the one end and another end of the check link while being applied with a pushing force by the door check, a popup arm arranged on a side closer to the another end of the check link, the popup arm being configured to turn about a turning axis, the popup arm being configured to apply a force with a side of one end of the popup arm so as to perform the relative movement of the check link in a direction in which the vehicle door is opened, a cam portion having an outer peripheral surface and being configured to turn about a cam axis, and a crank lever configured to move along the outer peripheral surface of the cam portion.

A power swing door actuator for moving a passenger swing door relative to a body portion of a motor vehicle. The power swing door actuator includes a housing rigidly fixed to the swing door, a motor mounted to the housing, a connector link having a first end pivotably coupled to the vehicle body portion and a second end pivotably coupled to a drive nut of a spindle drive mechanism. A leadscrew of the spindle drive mechanism is rotatably driven by the motor for causing relative translational movement between the drive nut and the leadscrew which, in turn, results in pivoting movement of the connector link while the vehicle door swings between open and closed positions in response to selective actuation of the motor. The power swing door actuator is further equipped with an integrated door check mechanism.

A door assembly for a vehicle includes a door and a check strap pivotally coupled to the door. An engagement member is releasably engageable with the check strap. A spring is positioned to bias the check strap toward the engagement member. When the engagement member is engaged with the check strap, the check strap maintains the door in an open position. When the engagement member is disengaged with the check strap, the door is swung to the closed position under the bias of the spring.

A door checker apparatus for a vehicle may include a checker arm which has one end portion mounted on a side outer panel through a hinge bracket, the other end portion at which a stopper is disposed, and a groove; and a slide device which is mounted on a door inside panel, and slides along the checker arm.

An opening degree adjustment device for a vehicle door includes a door check including a pressing member and being fixed to a vehicle door mounted to a vehicle body; a check link including a sliding surface to be pressed by the pressing member, one end being supported on the vehicle body so as to be pivotable, and another end having a stopper member mounted thereon, the check link being movable relative to the door check within a predetermined movable range of the check link between the one end of the check link and the another end of the check link under a state in which the sliding surface is pressed by the pressing member, and an opening degree adjustment block including a first checking region configured to restrict movement of the stopper member.

The technology relates to assisting in the closing of a vehicle door by automatically pulling a door closed. One or more computing devices having one or more processors may receive, from one or more sensors, information indicating that a door on the vehicle is not closed. In response to the received information indicating that the door is not closed, the one or more computing devices may determine to send a triggering signal to close the door. The one or more computing devices may send the triggering signal to the actuator and the actuator may receive the triggering signal. In response to receiving the triggering signal the actuator may be activated to close the door of the vehicle without user input.

A door opening degree adjustment device includes a check link having a stopper portion, a guide member having a guide hole, and an adjustment member. The adjustment member includes a plurality of stages of step portions and a guide projection that is inserted in the guide hole movably in the extending direction of the guide hole. The adjustment member causes the stopper portion to contact the step portions of any one of the stages, thereby restricting an opening operation caused by pivoting of the door in one direction. The guide projection is arranged on an extended line that connects the stopper portion to one of the stages of the step portions that contacts the stopper portion in the direction of the movement of the check link.

Disclosed is a door-stopping device, including a linking arm and a locking mechanism, one being rigidly connected to the leaf of the door and the other to the frame, the linking arm including at least one face intended for engaging with a braking element resting on the face of the linking arm, the braking element being controlled by a blocking element resting in a notch provided on the braking element, the blocking element engaging with resilient return element intended for exerting a pressure of the blocking element on the braking element, thus allowing the relative holding of the door in open position in any given position between the closed and fully-open positions. The device is particularly applicable to motor vehicle doors.

A door restraint system includes a retractor, a retractor brake, and a retractor-deployed stay for selectively restraining opening of a vehicle door. The retractor-deployed stay is configured to spool to and from the retractor as vehicle door is translated between a closed configuration and one or more opened configurations. Door check systems including the door restraint system are described.
