A lock (1) for a motor vehicle door, comprising:—an assembly of control means (7), each control means being mobile;—an assembly of opening levers (10A, 10B) of said door (2), each lever (10A, 10B) being intended to enable the opening of the door (2) by a control means (7) of the control means assembly, each lever (10A, 10B) comprising a cam (11A, 11B) which can rotate about an axis of rotation (8) and is fixed to said control means (7) in a fixation region (9) so as to be rotated during a movement of the control means (7);—a blocking means (12) configured to take an active blocking position, in which said blocking means (12) blocks an opening lever (10A), and a rest position in which said blocking means (12) authorises the movement of each opening lever (10A, 10B),—a spring-back blocking means (14) configured to switch said blocking means (12) from the rest position to the active blocking position, and—a trigger means (16) configured to take a rest position in which said trigger means (16) blocks the blocking means (12) in the rest position thereof and an active unblocking position in which said trigger (16) releases said blocking means (12) so that said blocking means switches from the rest position to the active blocking position,—the blocking means (12) and one opening lever (10B) not blocked by the blocking means in the blocking position (10) interacting so as to convey the blocking means (12) from the active blocking position to the rest position when said non-blocked opening lever (10B) pivots in the opening direction of the door (2).

A latch assembly and a method of disengaging the latch assembly for a vehicle door are provided. In particular, the latch assembly includes a releasing lever that is moveably attached to the latch assembly via a pawl and is moveable between an engaged and disengaged position to unlatch the latch assembly. Additionally, a lock lever interacts with an override assembly to control whether the vehicle door is opened. The override assembly requires two movements to move the lock lever to an unlocked position and to open the latch during a power failure.

A door lock comprises an electromagnet (410), a latch shaft (320), a crank device (430) and the like. The crank device (430) is connected with the latch shaft (320) and driven by the electromagnet (410) to transform the linear motion of the electromagnet (410) into the rotary motion of the latch shaft (320). When the electromagnet (410) pushes or pulls the crank device (430), a latch head (202) rotates around an axis so that it can move to a locked position or an unlocked position. The door lock (200) of the present invention can transform the linear motion of the electromagnet (410) into the rotary motion of the latch head (202), so that the latch head (202) can be conveniently installed on the lateral surface rather than at an end of the door lock (200). The door lock (200) can be advantageously installed in the middle gap of a front panel (102) along an edge of a control panel of the washing machine (100) to lock the upper cover (101) from the middle part.

A cinching latch assembly for a vehicle may include a base plate, a first locking groove formed on the base plate by being depressed from an upper end of the base plate toward a middle hereof for insertion of a striker into the first locking groove, a first rotation shaft provided on the base plate at a first side of the first locking groove, and a safety hook rotatably combined with the first rotation shaft at a first end of the safety hook, with a hook provided at a second end of the safety hook, the hook disposed to block the first locking groove, in which when the striker is inserted into the first locking groove, the safety hook opens the first locking groove by rotating on the first rotation shaft, and blocks the first locking groove, thereby performing a first-level locking.

A vehicle door operation device mounted to a sliding door of a vehicle, for appropriately returning a latch mechanism from a closure retention release state to a closure retention state of the sliding door when a motor power transmission lever stops at a rotary range between an initial position to a rotary end position by, for example, an electrical failure when a release motor is in operation includes a cancellation mechanism that moves a connection pin from a connection position where the connection pin connects an outside handle lever and the motor power transmission lever to a disconnection position by using a rotary movement of an inside handle lever in accordance with a closing operation of an inside handle when the motor power transmission lever stops at the rotary range between the initial position to the rotary end position when the release motor is in operation.

A double latch assembly for a motor vehicle having two pivotably mounted closure members is disclosed in which a power cinch mechanism is used to ensure first and second claws are moved and held in a second fully locked position.

A motor vehicle door lock comprising a locking mechanism (1, 2) and a closing/opening device (7 to 16) with at least one drive (7 to 11 and 13, 14), at least one transfer element (12, 15) and a driving pawl (16), in which the drive acts on the driving pawl with the assistance of the transfer element to open and close the locking mechanism, wherein a mechanical and/or electrical opening drive (7 to 11) and a mechanical and/or electrical closing drive (13, 14) each with a respective opening transfer lever (12) and closing transfer lever (15) are provided, in which the opening drive (7 to 11) including the opening transfer lever (12) in addition to the opening function for the locking mechanism (1, 2) is also designed to interrupt a closing function initiated by the closing drive (13, 14) in connection with the closing transfer lever (15).

A low release effort eccentric double pawl vehicle latch includes a ratchet, primary pawl, auxiliary ratchet and secondary pawl in combination with a secure lock lever. The secure lock lever selectively inhibits movement of the secondary pawl to prevent premature or unintended opening of the latch. A drive mechanism sequences movement of the secure lock lever and secondary pawl to open the latch. Upon reset, the drive mechanism drives the auxiliary ratchet back to its closed state and in the process the auxiliary ratchet can engage and return the secondary pawl back to a closed state in the event of an insufficient bias force thereon.

A rotary latch assembly is provided which can be configured as right-handed and left-handed using the same rotor and catch components, without reconfiguring the front and back plates. The axles for the rotor and catch are identical so that the rotor and catch can be interchanged on the axles. The latch biasing springs are mirror images so as to be used on either the rotor or the catch. The latch includes multiple connection points for single or dual actuators, and a lifting block to align the assembly with a striker.

Latches including a slot having a length that allows a striker of the latch to move from a normal closed position downwardly toward the closed bottom of the slot into an over travel position.
