Abstract: A power release latching system includes a gear and a pawl release lever. The gear is adapted to rotate about a rotation axis, and includes a serpentine cam component. The pawl release lever is adapted to pivot about a pivot axis spaced from and disposed parallel to the rotation axis. The pawl release lever includes a serpentine cam portion in camming contact with the serpentine cam component. The camming contact is configured to change from a low-speed-high-torque condition to a high-speed-low torque condition as the pawl release lever pivots from a neutral position to an end high position.

Abstract: A two-pull, automatic reset, latch system is configured to operate during a no-power scenario and a power scenario. The latch system includes a release system, a release lever, and a coupling lever. The manual release lever is pivotally engaged to a stationary structure about a first axis. The coupling lever pivots about a second axis offset from the first axis, and is adapted to couple the release lever to the release system during a no-power scenario and upon two manual actuations of the release lever. The coupling lever is further adapted to maintain decoupling of the release lever from the release system during a power scenario.

Abstract: An override mechanism for a cinching latch assembly includes a claw rotatable between open and closed positions, the claw spring biased toward the opened position to allow opening of a latch. Also included is a cinch drive link rotatable between an override and non-override positions, the cinch drive link in operative contact with the claw in the non-override position and disengaged from the claw in the override position, wherein operative contact between the claw and the cinch drive link biases the cinch drive link toward the override position. Further included is a guide surface. Yet further included is a cinch override lever defining an opening, the bearing of the cinch drive link disposed within the opening and moveable within the opening. Also included is a cinch override pawl rotatable between an engaged condition and a disengaged condition, the engaged condition locking the cinch override lever.

Abstract: A lock mechanism for a vehicle latch includes a cable link. Also included is a pawl release link, the cable link and the pawl release link switchable between an engaged condition and a disengaged condition, the engaged condition allowed manual release of the vehicle latch, the disengaged condition preventing release of the vehicle latch. Further included is an electrically driven gear operatively coupled to the cable link and the pawl release link to reset the cable link and the pawl release link to the disengaged condition.

Abstract: Representative implementations of memory devices have transistors between memory cells of a memory device. Memory devices may be arranged in memory arrays. The use of transistors may include alternately providing electrical isolation or current paths between pairs or groups of memory cells in a memory array.
