Abstract: A sliding door in a van is mounted on tracks for sliding movement between open and closed positions. At the closed position a weather strip is compressed and a door latch is latched. A cable is attached to the door and routed through the vehicle body via pulleys so that pulling the first cable end opens the door and pulling the second cable end closes the door. A motorized drive mechanism includes first and second reels mounted concentrically and having the cable ends wrapped respectively about the reels in opposite directions. A motor drives in one direction rotating the first reel to open the door and is reversible to rotate the second reel to close the door. Each of the reels has a large diameter portion for winding the cable to provide relatively high speed and low force door movement over the greatest portion of travel and a small diameter portion for winding the cable to provide relatively low speed and high force movement of the door during the lesser portion of travel of the door closest to the closed position. The reels have cable seat grooves to receive the cable and a spiral ramp groove to connect the large and small diameter portions. A tension retaining spring acts between the two reels to always maintain the cable under tension.

Abstract: In a seat belt retractor winding prevention mechanism, the winding prevention pawl is mounted upon a collapsible support mechanism which is collapsed by the onset of a sensed vehicle deceleration condition so that force imposed on the pawl by the windup spring shifts the pawl against a cam which moves the pawl axially out of engagement with the ratchet teeth carried by the reel to thereby release the winding prevention mechanism so that the windup spring will rewind the belt to a taut condition about the occupant.

Abstract: A vehicle seat is mounted on the vehicle floor by a seat adjusting mechanism permitting fore and aft adjusting movement of the seat. A channel member is connected to the vehicle floor behind the seat and extends forwardly along the path of longitudinal seat adjustment movement. The channel member has opposed facing walls which are slidably engaged by a pair of wedge members having associated ramp surfaces. A seat belt is connected to the rearward one of the wedge members so that an occupant restraint load imposed upon the seat belt induces longitudinal forward movement of the rearward wedge member into locking engagement with the forward wedge member and the walls of the channel member so that the seat belt is fixed relative to the channel member and the occupant restraint load is transmitted through the channel member to the vehicle floor. A lost motion connection selectively and alternately connects the seat with the forward wedge member upon forward seat adjusting movement and with the rearward wedge upon rearward seat adjusting movement to establish the wedge members in non-locking positions relative the channel member and thereby enable longitudinal adjusting movement of the wedge member and the seat belt with the seat so that the seat belt is always carried at a certain position relative to the vehicle seat notwithstanding adjustment of the seat relative to the vehicle floor.

Abstract: A passive lap and shoulder belt system for a motor vehicle includes a shoulder belt having an outboard end attached either to the roof rail or the door window frame and an inboard end suitably mounted inboard the occupant. The lap belt has an outboard end mounted on the door and an inboard end suitably mounted inboard the occupant. The shoulder belt and lap belt each have a retractor at one of their belt ends. A track extends longitudinally forward from the shoulder belt retractor and movably mounts a shoulder belt carriage which slidably engages the shoulder belt. A fixed length lift cable extends slidably through the shoulder belt carriage and has an upper end mounted adjacent the rear end of the track and a lower end connected to the lap belt. A suitable drive device moves the shoulder belt carriage forwardly along the track when the door is opened to thereby dispose the shoulder belt forwardly of the occupant and move the lift cable upwardly and forwardly to lift the lap belt upwardly and forwardly away from the seated occupant to facilitate occupant ingress and egress.

Abstract: A belt retractor for a vehicle occupant restraint system has a winding prevention mechanism which is interlocked to the vehicle door so as to cancel the winding prevention mechanism upon opening movement of the door. The retractor has a reel with a ratchet plate having ratchet teeth thereon. A control disc is frictionally clutched to the reel and is engageable with a spring biased pawl mounted on the housing to control movement of the pawl between a detenting position engaging the ratchet teeth to prevent reel rotation in the winding direction and an undetenting position disengaging the pawl from the ratchet teeth. A blocking disc is also frictionally clutched for rotation with the reel and is effective to capture and hold the pawl in undetenting position. Actuation and cancellation of this winding prevention mechanism is in response to a predetermined sequence of belt winding and unwinding movement. A plunger mounted on the vehicle body is engageable by the door for movement between a retracted position when the door is closed and an extended position when the door is open. A lever connects the pawl and the plunger to move the pawl from the detenting to the undetenting positions to thereby assure belt winding reel rotation by the winding spring whenever the vehicle door is moved to the open position.

Abstract: This vehicle door latch assembly incorporates a blocker bar which has a follower operatively mounted within a conical recess of an upstanding block so that when subjected to an unbalancing force of predetermined magnitude, the block will be tilted and the bar moved to a block position in which a transfer lever of the latch assembly is inhibited from turning. An associated intermittent lever is resultantly immobilized so that a connected detent lever cannot be moved from a holding position with respect to a spring biased locking bolt. With the locking bolt so held, it cannot be moved from a latching position with respect to a striker to thereby prevent door opening. When door opening is subsequently desired, an unblocking lever system can be actuated to cam the blocker bar to a release position allowing the transfer lever to be turned by a pull handle and a connected release rod to effect the spring biased movement of the locking bolt to an unlatching position with respect to the striker. A dual lever holding system on the release lever rod and on lock control rod is operable to hold the lock control rod in an unblocking position until the pull handle is released from a door opening position so that the lock control rod is returned to its unlocked position.

Abstract: A deck lid release actuator in which a uni-directional motor is mounted on a housing and rotatably drives a screw having high lead threads. The screw is rotatably journaled in a housing and a saddle nut threadedly engages the high lead threads of the screw so that rotation of the screw drives the saddle nut along the screw. An actuator member operably engages the detent lever of the deck lid latch and is mounted on the housing by a slide track extending parallel with the screw. When energization of the motor turns the screw, the saddle nut abuts against the actuator member to move the actuator member along the slide track and unlatch the deck lid latch. A spring acts on the actuator member to return the actuator member along the slide track thereby pushing the saddle nut axially along the screw as permitted by rotary back-drive of the screw and motor by the effort of the spring. The slide track mounting of the actuator member on the housing independently of the saddle nut serves to restrain the actuator member against rotation so that torque applied on the actuator member by the latch is isolated from the saddle nut and screw.
