Abstract: A locking device for car doors without door handles, including: an electronic control unit for authorization of access, the electronic control unit being connected to one or more sensors and/or to an antenna for wireless communication for communication with a smart device; and a driven mechanical lock/or unlock unit including a latching element for latching a closed end position of a car door, wherein the latching element is provided to block an intermediate position of the car door, into which the car door is movable dependent on a correct access authorization and wherein the intermediate position of the car door enables a grip behind an outside surface of the car door to unlock the intermediate position of the car door and to allow further movement of the car door into an open end position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a locking device for car doors, especially for car doors without door handles, having an electronic control unit for the authorization of access, which is connected to one or more sensors for a first operating step, i.e. a proximity sensor, a touch sensor etc. and/or an antenna for a wireless communication, i.e. a NFC (near field communication) antenna for NFC-communication with a smart device like a smart card, a mobile phone, a smart watch, a smart key, etc., and a driven mechanical lock/or unlock unit including a latching element for latching the closed door end position. According to the invention, a latching element is provided to block an intermediate position 3 of the car door 1, wherein at least one sensor 5, 5? is accessible and/or active in the intermediate position 3 of the car door 1 for a second operating step and not accessible and/or not, active in the closed end position 2 of the car door.

Abstract: A locking system (3) has a first device (4), with at least two states and configured as a control system for releasing and/or locking the car doors (6), the ignition lock, the steering wheel lock, for releasing and/or blocking the immobilizer, the motor control device or the like. An associated second device (5) is in the form of an electronic key, an ID transmitter, a chip card or the like. Both devices (4, 5) have transmission and/or receiving units (10) for the transmission of an electromagnetic signals (7). The transmission and/or receiving unit (10) has an antenna for transmitting the signals (7). At least one of the signals (7) transmitted between the second device (5) and the first device (4) is a coded operating signal for authenticating the second device (5). Thus, once the transmitted operating signal has been positively identified for the authorized second device (5), the state of the first device (4) can be modified.

Abstract: A locking device is proposed to lock and/or to unlock a movable car closure element like a car door, a trunk lid, a front lid, a tailgate or the like, wherein the locking device has an electric control unit and/or a drive unit to control and/or to drive a movement of the movable closure element. The locking device shall be usable in applications without a handle for manual movements and is working with disconnected regular power supply. According to the invention, at least one supercapacitor is provided to store energy for operating the locking device in an emergency case.
