摘要： A vehicle door module including window glass is presented which includes a box section belt having an angled bolt attachment and a double overlap attachment to maintain strength and rigidity of the door assembly. The incorporation of the box section belt to the vehicle door module permits the inclusion of the window glass and various parts of the lift system. The angled bolt attachment provides for efficient load transfer between the belt and the door frame through load sharing face contact and a bolt. The double overlap attachment provides for efficient load transfer through a lap joint and clamping forces provided by a bolt. The double overlap attachment further includes features which facilitate assembly while compensating for manufacturing tolerances and build variability. An embodiment of the double overlap joining includes interlocking ridges which engage to further enhance load transfer capability. The vehicle door module further includes a hardware support cross member, a window and lift system, an inside latch system, wire harness assembly, speaker, and other door components.

摘要： A modular vehicle door has a hollow door shell of sheet metal panels that are secured together at their abutting periphery, a crash beam that is attached to hollow door shell so as to extend across the length of the door, and a module that supports several parts of vehicle door that is preassembled and assembled to the hollow door shell as the preassembled module. The hollow door shell has a hinge reinforcement at a forward end and a latch reinforcement at an aft end. The module has a metal support beam that is attached to the hinge reinforcement at one end and to the latch reinforcement at the other end so that the metal support beam extends across the length of the door and forms a box section with the crash beam. The metal support beam has upper and lower channels and the module includes an insert molded carrier that has a plurality of ribs that cooperate with the channels of the metal support beam to increase the torsional ridgidity of the metal support beam. When attached to the door shell, the module improves the crashworthiness of the modular vehicle door.

摘要： An apparatus and a methodology 200, 350 for producing a tangible item 120 by the use of a plurality of sectional members, such as sectional members 10 and 14. In one embodiment, each sectional member 14 includes a protuberance 16 and these protuberances are selectively nestled to allow the various sectional members 14 to be connected and to cooperatively form a tangible item, such as tangible item 120. In an alternate embodiment of the invention, a first sectional member includes an opening 12 which receives a protuberance 70 from another sectional member. Other sectional members may thereafter be coupled to this assembly by the use of nestled protuberances, thereby allowing the coupled sectional members to cooperatively create a tangible item.

摘要： A methodology 40 for producing a laminated tool 10 having desired dimensional accuracy. The tool 10 is produced by the use of several sectional members, such as sectional members 14, 16 which are selectively coupled and which are measured. The measurement is used to determine whether to selectively press these previously coupled sectional members 14, 16 to ensure that their coupled arrangement has a desired dimensional accuracy. Additional measurements and needed pressing operations are accomplished each time a new sectional member is added to the previously coupled sectional member combination.

摘要： An actuating means for a vehicle body closure latch includes a driver or passenger controlled electric motor driving a reciprocable rack through a gear train. The rack is resiliently biased to a neutral position and shifts an actuator from neutral to an operating position when the rack is moved from the neutral position to a driving position. The actuator is engageable with a latch operator to control movement of the latch bolt to unlatched position when the actuator moves to an operating position. When the actuator reaches the operating position, the actuator is positively stopped to stall the motor or power operator. When the power is removed from the stalled motor or power operator by the driver or passenger releasing a switch, the bias of the resilient centering means returns the rack to its initial neutral or starting position and back drives the motor through the gear train.
