Said at least one optical detector (3) being configured for detecting the approach of a person (U) in a predefined area in the vicinity of the vehicle in order to activate opening command means of a device for opening a movable panel (5, 7) of the vehicle (VI). According to the invention: —said detection device (1) comprises switching means for switching the function of the at least one optical detector (3) to a detecting function of an obstacle (V2) at a predefined distance of the vehicle (VI) when the identifier of an authorized person (U) is detected inside the vehicle (VI) and the vehicle movable panels (5, 7) are closed, and wherein—said detection device (1) comprises processing means configured to react depending on a detection of an obstacle (V2) by the optical sensor (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for opening a movable panel of a motor vehicle, comprising the following steps of: —projection of at least one light spot (102) with which an authorized user (U) has to interact, —determining if there is an intention to open the panel (100), and if so —authorizing the opening of the panel (100). The step of determining if there is an intention to open the panel (100) comprises: —acquiring a measurement signal of a movement performed by the user (U), —filtering the signal, —identifying if the movement performed by the user (U) is in a predefined correct order with at least the following steps: moving the user's part towards the light spot (102), keeping it in the light spot (102) and moving it outside the light spot (102), and —determining if the movement performed by the user (U) meets a predefined specific time condition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lock for an anti-theft device for a motor vehicle steering column comprising a rotor (5), a stator head (4), a lug (13) and a complementary profile (14), one supported by the rotor (5) and the other by the stator head (4), the complementary profile (14) being shaped such that the engagement of same with the lug (13) blocks the rotation of the rotor (5) in a predetermined direction of rotation (AR) from a predetermined angular position (PIA) and allows the rotation of the rotor (5) by pushing the rotor (5) in beforehand. The complementary profile (14) is also shaped so that the engagement of the complementary profile (14) and the lug (13) guides the assembly of the rotor (5) in the stator head (4) according to a push-rotated assembly in which the rotor (5) is axially retained in the stator head (4).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for opening a movable panel of a motor vehicle, including the following steps: Step A (1)—the presence of at least one body part of a person is detected by a capacitive or non-capacitive sensor; Step B (2)—the person is authenticated as being authorized to unlock the vehicle by an authentication means; Step C (5)—a virtual switch is produced by projecting a light pattern onto the ground on which the motor vehicle is standing; and Step D (6)—the person positions his/her foot so as to obscure the virtual switch in a predetermined manner; Step E (7)—if the foot is not positioned in the predetermined manner, a signal is sent to restart step D, or if the foot is positioned in the predetermined manner, a control means opens the movable panel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a steering lock with a deadlock for a motor vehicle comprising: •a bolt guide (5), •a bolt (4), •a deadlocking means (15) comprising a locking element (16) designed to lock the bolt (4) in deadlocked position and to be subjected to torsional and translational movement towards said bolt (4), said element (16) being received in a housing (18) of the bolt guide (5). The deadlocking means (15) further comprises a closing plate (10) having a face that engages with an element of the deadlocking means (15), and engages with the opening of the housing (18) in such a way that the rotation of the closing plate (10) is locked relative to the guide bolt (5) and causes the translational and torsional movement of said locking element (16).

Abstract: The invention relates to a contact actuator comprising: a casing (102); a barrel intended to pivot about an axis A1 in relation to the casing (102); a pull knob intended to move between a locking position in which the steering column is locked and an unlocking position in which the steering column is unlocked; and a handle comprising (i) a rod (108) extending along axis A1, the first end of which is inserted into the barrel so as to slide therein, said rod (108) being secured to the barrel such as to rotate therewith about axis A1, and (ii) a head secured to a second end of the rod (108), by means of which the handle is intended to be gripped and manipulated. The casing (102) defines an internal space (302) in which the rod (108) extends and, in said internal space (302), the casing includes a longitudinal groove (304) parallel to axis A1.

Abstract: A lock with a disengageable lock cylinder that is part of a mechanism for locking the door of a motor vehicle is disclosed.
