Abstract: A door latch actuator comprises a reversible motor, a rotating object, a drive portion and an actuating member. The drive portion comprises two locking/unlocking drive projections and stopping projections. The actuating member comprises a pair of driven portions. When the drive portion is rotated in one direction, one of the locking/unlocking drive projections comes in contact with one of the driven portions to move the actuating member to a lock position. When the actuating member is moved to the lock position, the locking/unlocking drive projection leaves a recess, and the stopping projection comes in contact with the actuating member to stop rotation of the drive portion. When the drive portion rotates in an opposite direction, the other locking/unlocking drive projection comes in contact with the other driven portion, so that the actuating member is moved toward an unlock position.

Abstract: A vehicle door latch device which efficiently performs connecting a motion-transmitting member to an operating lever and attaching an auxiliary cover to a housing simultaneously from one direction is provided. The auxiliary cover comprises a holding portion which is capable of holding the motion-transmitting members to the side facing a coupling area; and positioning mechanism which can position coupling portions of the motion-transmitting member. Without fixing the auxiliary cover to the coupling area, the motion-transmitting members are held by the holding portion. The coupling portions are positioned by the positioning mechanism. By fixing the auxiliary cover to the coupling area, the coupling portions can be coupled to coupled portions of the operating levers which are stationary at a predetermined position.

Abstract: A motor-vehicle door latch device having a latch releasing member and a stopper which are rotatably supported on a base member by each shaft. The stopper holds the latch releasing member so as not to rotate in a releasing direction by rotating from a regular position to a lock position, due to an action of an inertial force caused by an impact force which is received from a first direction corresponding to a direction in which a striker enters an entrance groove. The latch releasing member has a center of gravity which deviates from its rotation center so that another inertial force, caused by another impact force which is received from a second direction opposite the first direction, acts in an opposite direction to the releasing direction.
