Abstract: A car access assembly includes: a support blade extending according to a basis plane; a main strain gauge mounted on the support blade and configured to measure, within the basis plane, an elongation or a contraction of the main strain gauge according to a main direction; an additional strain gauge mounted on the support blade in such a way to extend, at least partially, in an inclined manner with respect to the basis plane; a handle cover presenting a main actuating area configured to be manually actuated according to or parallel to the main direction for triggering the main strain gauge and an additional actuating area configured to be manually actuated according to or parallel to an additional direction, which is transverse to the main direction, for triggering the additional strain gauge.

Abstract: A vehicle door handle assembly includes a movable lever arranged on an inner side of a vehicle door for rotating from a rest position to an active position, an electrical latch for opening the door, and a converter for converting a displacement of the movable lever toward the active position into an electrical opening signal sent to the electrical latch. The converter includes a housing forming a recess, a switch arranged in the recess and connected to the electrical latch, a movable part arranged in the recess for moving from a rest position associated with a first state of the switch wherein no signal is sent to an active position associated with a second state of the switch wherein an electrical opening signal is sent to the electrical latch, an elastic element, and a mechanical link arranged between the movable lever and the movable part.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a positioning apparatus (30) for positioning an automotive equipment intended to be inserted in an opening defined in an automotive vehicle panel (10), the positioning apparatus (30) comprising: a central body (31) comprising a recess (32) intended to receive said automotive equipment (22), a peripheral rim (33) projecting from the central body (31), configured to cooperate with an edge (12E) of the opening (12) and to centre, within the opening, the automotive equipment that is inserted in the recess (32), and at least two flexible retaining members (34) arranged on the peripheral rim (33), each retaining member (34) being configured to cooperate with an edge (12E) of the opening (12) so that the positioning apparatus (30) can be removably attached to the automotive vehicle panel.

Abstract: An assembly for opening and/or closing a vehicle door includes a grip member configured to be attached to an external side of a vehicle door. The grip member includes a base configured to extend from the vehicle door when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door and a gripping part extending from the base toward an upper direction when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door. The assembly also includes an electronic switch subassembly configured to be attached to the grip member and to be activated by a user's touch so as to send a signal to an electronic latch to open the door. The electronic switch subassembly includes a switch contact area facing towards the external side of the vehicle door when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door.

Abstract: A vehicle panel handle lever and a vehicle panel handle for opening a panel of an automotive vehicle having such a lever is disclosed. The handle lever has a lever body, a handle lever cover intended to be received on the lever body, and a mobile trigger part, which cooperates with a latch mechanism to actuate the handle and which is able to be mobile in rotation between a resting position where the mobile trigger part does not activate the latch mechanism, and an activating position where the mobile trigger part activates the latch mechanism enabling the opening of the vehicle panel. The trigger part includes an inner volume designed for receiving at least one electrical element.

Abstract: A vehicle door handle includes a lever rotationally mobile between a rest position and a release position, a handle mechanism that allows opening of a vehicle door when actuated by the lever when the lever is in the release position, and an insertable body. The lever and the insertable body include a rolling surface and a pivot forming a hinge around which the lever is rotationally mobile, the lever includes one of the rolling surface and the pivot, and the insertable body includes the other of the rolling surface and the pivot.
