Abstract: An actuation system for a closure panel of a vehicle, the actuation system having: a base portion for mounting to a body of the vehicle, the base portion having mounted thereon on a latch mechanism for latching the closure panel between a locked and an unlocked state and a presenter mechanism for presenting the closure panel with respect to the body between a home position and a presentment position; and a remote actuator positioned on the body of the vehicle remote from the base portion, such that a presenter linkage operatively couples operation of the remote actuator to the presenter mechanism, in order to move a presentment member of the presenter mechanism from the home position to the presentment position.

Abstract: A sign or other marking that is illuminated by an LED lamp, e.g., in a vehicle headlamp is described. The sign employs spectral shifting to increase the power or energy reflected by the sign when illuminated by the LED lamp, which has a significant power peak in the blue spectrum. The spectral shifting can be done in a conversion layer on top of a reflective layer. The reflective layer can include quantum dots to increase its efficiency in reflecting light.

Abstract: A latch comprising: a housing having a slot for a striker; a ratchet rotationally mounted on the housing and biased for release of the striker from the slot and retaining of the striker in the slot dependent upon angular position of the ratchet with respect to the housing, the ratchet having a ratchet surface; a pawl rotationally mounted on the housing and biased towards the ratchet, the pawl having a pawl surface; and a rotatable bearing positioned between the pawl surface and the ratchet surface for rotation there between during rotation of the ratchet and the pawl, such that contact between the ratchet and the pawl is facilitated by one or more localized contact regions between an exterior surface of the bearing and adjacent respective at least one of the pawl surface or the ratchet surface; wherein the contact region is a localized contact region with respect to the exterior surface having a spheroidal shape.

Abstract: A latch assembly for driving a closure panel from a closed panel position to an open panel position. The latch assembly comprises: a latch mechanism having a first latch element for retaining a mating latch component in a latched position and for moving the mating latch component from the latched position to an unlatched position when released, the movement of the first latch element biased towards the unlatched position by a latch biasing element; and an actuation system having: a mechanical energy storage system having a device for storing mechanical potential energy for assisting the latch biasing element in moving the mating latch component from the latched position to the unlatched position; a mechanical advantage system having a plurality of advantage elements for engaging the device, such that movement of the plurality of advantage elements is associated with a trigger force and cooperation of the plurality of advantage elements provides for amplification of the trigger force as an initiating force to release the stored mechanical potential energy; and a trigger system configured to provide the trigger force to release the stored mechanical potential energy.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A sealed latch assembly for a vehicle closure panel is provided. The latch assembly includes a housing having an internal cavity sized for receipt of internal components of the latch assembly. A cover is attached to the housing to enclose at least a portion of the internal cavity. The latch assembly includes a sealing member and a deflector member that are brought into engagement to define a sealing interface. The sealing member contacts a side of the deflector member when assembled, and the sealing member is deflected to create a water-tight seal. The housing and the cover are secured by a snap fit arrangement with a low compressive load, as the deflector does not compress the seal member.

Abstract: A non-contact obstacle and gesture detection system and method are disclosed. The system includes first and second electronic control units in communication with one another and obstacle and gesture sensors coupled to the first electronic control unit. First and second power actuators are coupled to the first and second electronic control units for moving first and second closure members, respectively. The first electronic control unit detects the obstacle or gesture using the obstacle and gesture sensors, communicates the detection of the obstacle or gesture to the second electronic control unit, and controls movement of the first closure member using the first power actuator. The second electronic control unit is configured to request the detection of the obstacle or gesture adjacent the motor vehicle from the first electronic control unit and control movement of the second closure member using the second power actuator accordingly.
