Abstract: A closure operator particularly adapted for use with a station wagon tailgate type closure and adapted to permit randomly interchangeable operation of the tailgate in either one of a power mode and a manual mode, the closure operator including a driving member movable from a center position in opening and closing directions corresponding to movement of the closure toward an open position and a closed position, means defining a slot in the driving member, a driven member connected to the closure for moving the latter in the power mode and having a pin thereon engageable on the driving member in the slot, a reversible electric motor for moving the driving member in either one of the opening and closing directions, and a control circuit having a first manually actuable switch for energizing the motor to move the driving member away from the center position in either the opening or closing directions and a second switch responsive to the position of the driving member for reversing the motor to bring the driving member back to the center position and sequencing means for preventing reversing of the motor through the second switch until the first switch is deactuated. In the center position of the driving member the pin is located adjacent one or the other of the ends of the slot when the closure is in the open and closed positions so that movement of the closure in the manual mode effects lost motion between the driving and driven members as the pin traverses the length of the slot while movement of the driving member effects engagement between an end of the slot and the pin to effect movement of the driven member and the closure in the power mode.

Abstract: A station wagon tailgate type vehicle closure system operable in a randomly interchangeable manner in either one of a power mode and a manual mode, the system including a closure, an operator movable from a center position in opening and closing directions, a pin and slot connection between the closure and the operator effecting movement of the closure in the power mode during movement of the operator in either direction away from the center position while permitting lost motion between the closure and the operator during movement of the operator back to the center position, the lost motion also permitting movement of the closure in the manual mode when the operator is in the center position, a manual switch for energizing a motor adapted to drive the operator in either direction away from the center position, a reversing and stopping circuit responsive to deactuation of the manual switch for temporarily energizing the motor to return the operator to the center position, a striker mounted on the vehicle and movable between a center position and an extended position synchronously with movement of the operator, and a latch assembly on the closure engageable on the striker. When the operator is in the center position the striker is in its center position and the closure is movable in the normal manual mode. When the operator is actuated to move the closure toward a closed position the striker moves to the extended position for engagement with the latch assembly whereafter the striker during movement back to the center position pulls the closure to a fully closed position synchronously with movement of the operator back to its center position.
