The locking cam includes a retaining notch and a locking notch. The retaining follower engages the retaining notch. The locking clutch includes a locking follower that engages the locking notch of the locking cam. The solenoid includes a plunger coupled to the locking clutch such that movement of the plunger rotates the locking clutch from a locked position to an unlocked position.

A latch assembly comprising an elongated flat latch slider slidable along a first axis between a first position and a second position in relation to a main latch, wherein the latch slider is provided with a protruding lug; a lock arrangement comprising; a body moving between a locking position and an unlocking position, wherein in the locking position a portion of the body is preventing movement of the lug along a path in parallel with said first axis, and in the unlocking position the lug can be moved along said first axis; and an electrically powered device connected to the body for moving the body between the locking position and the unlocking position.

An example retention assembly has a motor assembly and a self-locking worm drive coupled thereto. A cam is fixed to a worm gear of the worm drive. The retention assembly has an actuation shaft including a follower. The actuation shaft is displaceable over a displacement range via rotation of the cam. The retention assembly has a securement member with a securement member follower, the securement member coupled to a portion of the actuator shaft. The retention assembly has a housing cam included as part of the retention assembly housing and against which the securement member follower is biased. The securement member are in an open state when the actuation shaft is in a first position. The securement member swings outward to a retaining position as the actuation shaft is moved to a second position.

A passage barrier includes two guide elements that cooperate such that they define a gate region, through which a person passes from an entrance region into a passage region. At least one of the guide elements includes a vertically running profile, on which a locking apparatus is arranged. The locking apparatus has a torque transmission toothing, which engages into a complementary torque reception toothing of a hollow shaft of a drive. A circular stop disc is also provided and has a toothing engagement, which is engaged with the torque transmission toothing. The stop disc has a circumferential surface with a stop lug, which protrudes radially from the stop disc circumferential surface, and cooperates with a stop element arranged on the vertically running profile such that a rotation of the stop disc is delimited by the engagement of the stop lug against the stop element.

This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle with an arrangement configured to oppose movement of a vehicle door, and a corresponding method. An example motor vehicle includes a body, a door configured to slide relative to the body between an open position and a closed position, and a bracket connected to the door. The bracket includes a slot. Further, a locking arm is mounted to the body, and, when the door is in the closed position, the locking arm is configured to move such that the locking arm is received in the slot.

A manipulator for controlling a locking function and a maneuvering function of an access member rotatably coupled to a frame is disclosed. The manipulator includes an actuator configured to provide a substantially linear first actuating movement in a first direction and a substantially linear second actuating movement in a second direction, opposite to the first direction; a latch bolt functionally coupled to the actuator, the latch bolt arranged to move to an unlocking position in response to movement of the actuator in the first direction and arranged to move to a locking position in response to movement of the actuator in the second direction; and a transmission mechanism functionally coupled to the actuator, the transmission mechanism configured to transmit the first actuating movement in the first direction provided by the actuator to an opening movement of the access member. An access member, a system and a method are also provided.

A vehicular storage box that includes a compartment for holding articles, the compartment comprising four sides, a bottom and a top lid. The compartment is fabricated from an engineered plastic or a polymer matrix composite. The box further includes a locking assembly situated within the lid. The locking assembly comprises a central locking wheel connected to a linkage, a plurality of pawls for each of at least three of the sides of the compartment, and a solenoid switch. The locking wheel is movably connected to the plurality of pawls. Further, the solenoid switch is connected to the linkage to move the wheel to drive the plurality of pawls into and out of the at least three of the sides of the compartment into a respective locked position of the lid and an unlocked position of the lid.

A retention assembly may comprise a motor assembly and a self-locking worm drive coupled thereto. A cam may be fixed to a worm gear of the worm drive. The retention assembly may further comprise an actuation shaft including a follower. The actuation shaft may be displaceable over a displacement range via rotation of the cam. The retention assembly may further comprise a securement member with a securement member follower, the securement member coupled to a portion of the actuator shaft. The retention assembly may further comprise a housing cam included as part of the retention assembly housing and against which the securement member follower may be biased. The securement member may be in an open state when the actuation shaft is in a first position.
