    摘要: The invention relates to a motor vehicle door locking system, comprising a motor vehicle door lock (1) on a motor vehicle door (2) and a lock retainer (3), interacting therewith, on a motor vehicle body (4), or vice versa, according to patent application DE 10 2014 007 119.7, characterized in that a hold-back element (5) is provided which keeps clear an inlet opening (6) for the lock retainer (3) in the motor vehicle door lock (1) even in the event of deformations of the motor vehicle door (2) caused by an accident, wherein the hold-back element (5) keeps the opening clear on account of a shaping of the hold-back element.

    摘要: The aim of the invention is to be able to constantly open a locking mechanism of an electrically actuated lock of a motor vehicle with sufficiently large force, without having to provide an excessively large electric motor and/or an excessively large gearing transmission ratio for this purpose. In order to solve the problem, a lock for a motor vehicle comprises a locking mechanism (3) and an actuator device for opening the locking mechanism (3). The actuation device comprises a rotatable actuator (1) which can be rotated by a motorised drive (15), in particular by an electric drive. A rotating of the actuator (1) brings about an unlocking, i.e. an opening, of the locking mechanism (3). The locking mechanism (3) can be opened independently of the direction of rotation of the actuator (1). Opening of the locking mechanism (3) is therefore not dependent upon a defined direction of rotation. The force with which the locking mechanism (3) is opened depends on the direction of rotation of the actuator (1). Opening can therefore be achieved with different force depending on the direction of rotation. In this way, in regular operation opening is possible with a lower force compared to a case requiring a greater force for opening. In regular operation, in which a conventional force is used for opening the locking mechanism (3), opening is achieved quickly and with low expenditure of energy. However, it is still possible, if necessary, albeit with delay, to be able to open with greater force for this purpose.

    摘要: A latching system includes a closing wedge module with two closing wedges supported for movement relative to one another and having wedge faces, and a closing wedge holder for movably receiving the closing wedges. A holding jaw module has two holding jaws to receive the closing wedge module there between. The holding jaws have keyways configured to complement a contour of the wedge faces of the closing wedges. A drive unit moves the closing wedges apart to thereby push the wedge faces into the keyways of the holding jaws and to couple a vehicle flap with a structural part of a vehicle body. At least one of the closing wedges has a predetermined breaking point to separate into a keyway-proximal part and a closing-wedge-holder-proximal part, when the closing wedge is pushed into the keyways and a stress resistance of the closing wedge is exceeded by a mechanical load during operation.

    摘要: An apparatus may include a latch mechanism, an actuator, and an actuation link. The latch mechanism may be movable to allow and restrict movement of a vehicle door relative to a vehicle frame. The actuator may be configured to be movable by a user to cause corresponding movement of the latch mechanism. The actuation link may interconnect the latch mechanism and the actuator. The actuation link may include a portion that is laterally compliant to absorb a lateral force and axially rigid to transmit motion of the actuator to the latch mechanism.

    摘要: A motor vehicle lock including a rotary latch and a pawl for latching the rotary latch in a latching position, in particular main latching position, and also a lock plate with a screw-on point for attaching the motor vehicle lock to a vehicle door or vehicle flap, wherein the rotary latch comprises a support which is provided in such a manner that, in the latching position, in particular main latching position, the rotary latch can be supported on the screw-on point via the support in the event of an overload. Opening of a vehicle door or flap can thus be avoided even in the event of a crash.

    摘要: A lock for closing a door with respect to a frame. The lock includes a lock body mounted on the door and a striker mounted on the frame, or vice versa. The lock body includes a catch element mounted so as to rotate between a striker keep position and a striker release position; elastic means suitable for driving the catch element from the striker keep position to the striker release position; a lever suitable for moving between two positions, a closing position in which it maintains the catch element in the striker keep position and an opening position in which it is disengaged from the catch element; and a service actuator suitable for applying a force f on the lever so as to bring it from the closing position to the opening position. The lock body further includes an emergency SMA actuator suitable for applying a force on the lever so as to bring it from the closing position to the opening position. The SMA actuator can apply a force higher than 100 N and including blocking means for allowing the force to be applied on the lever only when the force exceeds a predetermined threshold value.
