Abstract: An opening/closing assembly for a door configured to actuate certain latches during a powered operation and to actuate not all the same latches during a manual (emergency) operation. The assembly operates to decouple the operation of levers associated to the various latches of the door. The assembly is configured such that a hold-close latch is actuated for both a powered operation and a manual operation, while a hold-open latch is not actuated during the manual operation and is only actuated during the powered operation.

Abstract: An emergency mechanism for manually opening a powered door that includes a hold-close latch that holds the door in a closed position. During the manual operation, a manually operated handle for actuating only the hold-closed latch is manually moved from a non-actuating position to an actuating position, which actuates the hold-close latch to release the door from the closed position. The handle is held in the actuating position until it is moved back to the non-actuating position during a subsequent powered operation, thus allowing a user to move the door to an opened position using both hands.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a vehicle door assembly that includes a vehicle door, which defines an interior and is connected to the motor by the linkage, such that actuation of the actuator engages the motor, which thereby moves the vehicle door via the linkage. The vehicle door assembly also includes a powered door override. At least a portion of the powered door override can be disposed within the interior of the vehicle door. The powered door override is configured to disconnect the linkage from the motor so as to isolate the motor from the vehicle door and thereby enable the vehicle door to be moved manually. An interior panel is connected to the vehicle door so as to cover at least a portion of the interior of the vehicle door, such that the powered door override is at least partially enclosed between the interior panel and the vehicle door.

Abstract: A bolt retention system includes a bolt and a receiver. The bolt has a head formed at the end having a radial thickness greater than an adjacent neck and a threaded portion having a plurality of external bolt threads. The receiver has a spring section, a threaded section, and a bracket section. The spring section has a distal end that springs outwardly from a longitudinal axis of the bolt as the head of the bolt passes through the spring section, the distal end of the spring section being biased to maintain contact with the neck of the bolt after the head of the bolt passes through the spring section to create an interference fit with the head of the bolt. The threaded section of the receiver is adapted to receive the threaded portion of the bolt for securing the bolt to the work piece.
