Abstract: A hinge system for moving a closure panel relative to a vehicle body of a motor vehicle between open and closed positions includes a closure panel bracket configured for attachment to the closure panel; a mount bracket configured for attachment to the vehicle body, and a hinge member pivotably coupled to the closure panel bracket about a first axis of rotation and to the mount bracket about a second axis of rotation. The hinge member is configured to pivot about both the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation over a first range of motion between the open and closed position, and is configured to pivot about one of the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation over a second range of motion between the open and closed position.

Abstract: A powered actuator for moving a motor vehicle closure member from a closed position to an open position and method of facilitating movement of the closure member therewith. Powered actuator includes an electric motor configured to rotate a driven shaft and a gearbox coupled to the driven shaft. An extensible member extends through the gearbox to a proximal end on one side of the gearbox for attachment to one of a vehicle body or the closure member and to a distal end on an opposite side of the gearbox. Extensible member is configured to move between retracted and extended positions in response to rotation of the driven shaft. A bias member is configured to impart an axially directed bias on the extensible member to facilitate controlled movement of the extensible member, while reducing the load imparted on the electric motor and the gearbox during powered movement of the closure member between the open and closed positions.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a closure latch assembly and system for a vehicle closure panel equipped with a latch mechanism having a latched position and an unlatched position and a power release mechanism moveable between home position, a release position and a double pull position and/or a child lock position, wherein a motor is operable to move the power release mechanism from the home position to the release position and from the home position to the double pull position and/or the child lock position, and wherein an emergency backup mechanism in mechanically coupled communication with the latch mechanism can be mechanically actuated from a non-deployed position to a deployed position to move a pawl from a ratchet holding position to a ratchet releasing position regardless of the position of the power release mechanism, wherein the emergency backup mechanism is prevented from generating rattling noise while in the non-deployed position.
