    摘要: In a door handle device for a vehicle, an elastic stopper includes: a stopper main body having a receiving surface that can be brought into contact with and separated from one of case and handle members, and being attached to the other member; and a lip part formed integrally with the stopper main body. The stopper main body is formed into a shape capable of alleviating impact by bringing the receiving surface into contact with the one member when the handle member swinging in a closing direction reaches a closed position. The lip part is formed to protrude further toward the one member side than the receiving surface in a free state of the lip part, and can exert a resilient force in a direction where the receiving surface and the one member are separated from each other when the handle member starts open-swing thereof from the closed position.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a hood latch system for a vehicle comprising a hood having a striker, the system comprises: a spring loaded claw rotatable between an engaged position in which the striker is locked in place by the claw, and an open position in which the striker is disengaged from the claw, and a main pawl rotatable between a first position in which the claw is held in place by the main pawl in the engaged position and a second position in which the claw is released by the main pawl whereby the claw is allowed to rotate into the open position. When the main pawl is caused to be activated for rotating from the first position to the second position by a crash acceleration force, the main pawl is configured to prevent the striker from being released.

    摘要: A touchless detent door lock is disclosed. In embodiments, the door lock includes a strike and a lock housing that defines a longitudinal cavity, where the strike can be linearly actuated within the longitudinal cavity from an unlocked position to a locked position, and vice versa. The door lock further includes at least one selector magnet coupled to or at least partially embedded within the strike and a plurality of position magnets coupled to or at least partially embedded within the lock housing. The position magnets include at least a first magnet corresponding to the unlocked position, a second magnet corresponding to the locked position, and a third magnet in between the first magnet and the second magnet. The first and second magnets are configured to attract the selector magnet, while the third magnet is configured to repel the selector magnet.

    摘要: A latch assembly for a storage compartment in an automobile is disclosed. The latch assembly includes a latch module, including a latch bolt, and a striker. The latch bolt is moveable between an extended latched position, in which the bolt axis is coaxial with a longitudinal axis of the latch casing, and a retracted unlatched position, in which the bolt is withdrawn into, and its axis is oblique with respect to, the latch casing. When in the oblique position, the latch bolt is retained in the unlatched position within the latch casing. A spring member within the latch casing biases the latch bolt to both extend axially from the latch casing, and pivotally toward the inner retaining surface of the latch casing. Upon closure, the bolt is moved, via contact with the striker, from the withdrawn oblique retained position, and returns via spring bias to the latched extended position.

    摘要: A door lock arrangement of a vehicle door of a vehicle includes a first closing element arranged in a lock mouth of the vehicle door and a second closing element arranged on a body of the vehicle. The first and second closing elements can be brought into positive-locking engagement with each other to hold the door on the body. A damping device absorbs kinetic energy of the door during a closing movement of the door within a predetermined limit opening angle of the vehicle door relative to the body and slows down the closing movement of the door. The damping device has an impact element arranged on the door in a displaceable manner relative to the door or on the body in a displaceable manner relative to the body. The impact element is connected to an actuator, which applies a pre-tensioning force of the door directed in an opening direction of the door while the first and second closing elements are engaged with each other.

    摘要: A locking device for a vehicle seat is disclosed. The locking device comprises at least one tolerance compensating element and a second damping element provided for damping the movement of a bolt element received in the locking device. The elements are spaced apart from one another in the direction of the action of force effected by the bolt element, such that under normal conditions the tolerance compensating element acts in a damping manner and the second damping element additionally provides a damping action under the action of high dynamic force.

    摘要: A vibration-reducing apparatus for an assembly comprising a first member including a latch and a second member including a striker may include a threaded post having arm members extending outwardly therefrom, the threaded post being rotatably advanceable in discrete increments in a threaded opening extending through the first member such that, in a closed position of the first and second members, a distal portion of the threaded post extending through the first member contacts the second member upon rotational advancement of the threaded post in the threaded opening; and a locking region arranged to interact with at least a portion of the arm members, the rotational advancement of the threaded post in the threaded opening and contact with the second member reducing an engagement distance between the latch and the striker with the first and second members in the closed position, and attenuating vibrations between the latch and the striker.
