Abstract: A locking device enables locking a charging, fueling, or service flap on a compartment. The flap is reversibly movable between a closed position and an open position. The locking device includes a flap lock for locking the flap in its closed position. The flap lock has a locking position, in which the flap lock locks the flap, and a release position in which the flap is moveable in relation to the flap lock. A first transfer shaft is connected to the flap lock such that the flap lock is moveable by a movement of the first transfer shaft between the locking position and the release position. A pushing element is connected to the first transfer shaft and configured so as to push the flap out of its closed position away from the charging compartment after the flap lock is transferred into its release position.

Abstract: An arrangement for actuating a component of a vehicle, wherein the component has a manually actuable actuating portion which is mounted on the vehicle so as to be movable between a closed position and an open position, wherein the arrangement comprises a control element and an electric drive which is connected to the control element via an electrical connection, wherein, when the actuating portion moves into its open position, the control element activates the electric drive, and therefore the electric drive actuates the component, wherein a centrifugal weight element is mounted movably on the arrangement, wherein the centrifugal weight element is moved from an inoperative position into an interruption position by a predetermined acceleration acting on the component and moving the actuating portion into the open position, wherein, in the interruption position, the centrifugal weight element interrupts the electrical connection between the control element and the electric drive.

Abstract: Door handle assembly for a vehicle has a handle (10) mounted on a handle support (60) and one or more rest positions and at least one release position. The assembly has at least three different positions, —a flush or retracted position, in which the handle (10) is flush or retracted with respect to an outer door surface, —a deployed position, in which the handle (10) protrudes or protrudes to a greater extent than in the retracted position, —and the at least one release position. The handle (10) is connected to the handle support (60) via two links (21, 22) and rotational joints wherein one joint (22.1) also has a translational degree of freedom wherein a movement of the joint (22.1) along the translational degree of freedom is configured to mechanically actuate the door lock (120) or door lock (120) function.

Abstract: Described is a vehicle door actuating apparatus (100). The vehicle door actuating apparatus (100) includes an actuating surface (106), a sensor (140), such as an inductive sensor or switch, and a mechanism for transmitting a compressive force applied by a user to the actuating surface (106) into a movement that is detectable by the sensor. The mechanism includes a first component (111) or a first component group on which the switch (140) is at least partially fixed and a transmission element (120) that is pivotally arranged on the first component (111) or the first component group. The transmission element (120) is pivotable between a home position in which the sensor (140) is not triggered by the transmission element (120) and an actuating position in which the sensor (140) is triggered by the transmission element (120). The transmission element (120) is movable relative to the actuating apparatus (102). The vehicle door actuating apparatus (100) includes a plurality of actuating elements (158a, 158b, 158c, 158d, 158e) arranged in relation to the transmission element (120) such that a movement of at least one of the actuating elements (158a, 158b, 158c, 158d, 158e) relative to the transmission element (120) is sufficient in order to transfer the transmission element (120) from its home position into its actuating position.
