Power child lock device
A power child lock device includes a rotation driving mechanism, a switch link connected to the rotation driving mechanism so as to be moved vertically by a rotational force of the rotation driving means, an inside handle lever cooperatively connected to an inside handle installed in a door of a vehicle, a release lever connected to a door catch and configured to lock or release the door catch, and a power child lever configured to selectively connect or separate the inside handle lever and the release lever by being moved by the switch link.
Double bottom slider system and mechanism
A shower door assembly with translating glass door panels riding in a lower track and supported by an upper center guide with a locking mechanism providing that one glass door is locked in place while the other glass door is allowed to translate. A double bottom slider system and mechanism for a sliding door assembly allow the doors to translate relative to each other. A locking system located on the top portion of the lower track made up of an inner door gear element attached to a torque loading device with a protruding element in contact with the inner door panel meshed with an outer door gear element with a protruding element in contact with the outer door panel. The shower door assembly operates in the setting of sliding all glass shower door systems to lock one door in place while the other door is free to translate.
Lock for a motor vehicle door
The invention relates to a lock for a motor vehicle door with: a locking mechanism; an actuating lever assembly which acts upon the locking mechanism; and a drive unit for at least one lever of the actuating lever assembly. The drive unit comprises at least one motor and a bolt which is acted upon by the motor and is provided with a recess for at least one output shaft of the motor.
Motor-vehicle door lock
The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock comprising a locking mechanism, also at least one locking element (3), an electric drive (5, 6, 7) for the locking mechanism, and at least two stops (20, 21, 22, 27) for the electric drive (5, 6, 7) and/or the locking element (3), wherein one of the stops (20, 21) is associated with the locking element (3) and the other stop (22, 27) is associated with the electric drive (5, 6, 7) and both stops (20, 21, 22, 27) are arranged on a common stop contour (23).
Powered sash lock and control systems therefor
A system for locking a position of an operable sash in a window frame has a motor, a rotating element connected to the motor, and a sweep cam. The sweep cam is configured to rotatably engage a keeper disposed on a sash disposed opposite the operable sash. A spur gear operatively connects the rotating element to the sweep cam.
Trunk lid latch assembly for vehicle
A trunk lid latch assembly for a vehicle may include a main gear rotated by a drive motor provided at the base, wherein an error lever, a pawl lever, a plurality of links, and a cinching member are rotated in conjunction with rotation of the main gear, and thus a striker is locked or unlocked from the claw.
Latch mechanism for storage box
A latch mechanism for a vehicle storage box may include a pair of pawls fixed on opposite sides of a coupler and configured to cause inward translation of one pawl in response to actuation at the other pawl, and a sliding element arranged between each of the pawls and the coupler, the sliding element including at least one retention mechanism to fix the pawl to the sliding element and further including a biasing element to compress the pawl to further engage the pawl with the retention mechanism.
Power Child Lock Device
A power child lock device includes a rotation driving mechanism, a switch link connected to the rotation driving means so as to be moved vertically by a rotational force of the rotation driving means, an inside handle lever cooperatively connected to an inside handle installed in a door of a vehicle, a release lever connected to a door catch and configured to lock or release the door catch, and a power child lever configured to selectively connect or separate the inside handle lever and the release lever by being moved by the switch link.
Latch actuator and method of actuating a latch
A latch actuator comprises a motor, a speed reduction gearing coupled to an output shaft of the motor, a spindle, and a motion conversion mechanism. The spindle has a threaded portion in engagement with the speed reduction gearing. The spindle is supported to be rotatable about an axis. The threaded portion is rotationally fixed relative to the spindle. The motion conversion mechanism is configured to cause a displacement of the spindle along the axis when the spindle rotates.
Double Bottom Slider System and Mechanism
A shower door assembly with translating glass door panels riding in a lower track and supported by an upper center guide with a locking mechanism providing that one glass door is locked in place while the other glass door is allowed to translate. A double bottom slider system and mechanism for a sliding door assembly comprising an inner door panel and an outer door panel slidingly engaged between an upper guide and lower track to allow the doors to translate relative to each other. a locking system located on the top portion of the lower track made up of an inner door gear element attached to a torque loading device with a protruding element in contact with the inner door panel meshed with an outer door gear element with a protruding element in contact with the outer door panel. The inner door gear element loaded in the clockwise direction with the torque device such that when the inner door panel is fully closed, the protruding element on the inner door gear element is locked against the edge of the inner door panel and the protruding element on the outer door gear element is disengaged from the edge of the outer door panel. The outer door gear element loaded in the clockwise direction with the torque device such that when the outer door panel is fully closed, the protruding element on the outer door gear is locked against the edge of the outer door panel and the protruding element on the inner door gear element is disengaged form the edge of the inner door panel.
