  • Patent number: 12460452
    Abstract: A door for a motor vehicle comprising: a lock available in a closed configuration and in an open configuration; a support body comprising a first portion and a second portion, which are integral to one another, when said door is in a normal operating condition; a ratchet supported by the first portion of the support body; a Bowden cable, which is interposed between the ratchet and the lock, can be operated by said ratchet to cause the lock to shift from the closed configuration to the open configuration and is at least partly housed in a first seat defined by the first portion of the support body; the support body comprises a preferential breaking area designed to break, in use, due a predetermined load in case of impact of the door, so as to determine the separation of the first portion carrying the Bowden cable and the ratchet from the second portion of the support body.
