Publication number: 20100032968Abstract: A motor arrangement includes a rotor with a north rotor magnetic pole and a south rotor magnetic pole, the rotor being rotatable about a rotor axis between a first rotor position and a second rotor position. The rotor includes a first rotor abutment and a second rotor abutment. The motor arrangement includes a stator having a first stator magnetic pole and a second stator magnetic pole, the stator having a first stator condition in which the first stator magnetic pole is a north stator magnetic pole and the second stator magnetic pole is a south stator magnetic pole, and a second stator condition in which the first stator magnetic pole is a south stator magnetic pole and the second stator magnetic pole is a north stator magnetic pole.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2007Publication date: February 11, 2010Inventors: Denis Cavallucci, Gurbinder S. Kalsi, Chris Rhodes, Nigel V. Spurr, Sylvain Rehi Chonavel, David Peatey, Paul Moore, Robert F. Tolley, Jean-Vincent Olivier, Robert James Clawley

Patent number: 7311341Abstract: A lock mechanism for a vehicle door latch includes a lock actuator drivingly coupled to a lock link for movement of the lock link between a first position corresponding to a locked state of a latch and a second position corresponding to an unlocked state of the latch. The mechanism further includes a superlock actuator drivingly connected to a superlock link slidably mounted for movement of the superlock link between a third position corresponding to a superlocked state of the latch and a fourth position corresponding to a non-superlocked state of the latch. A fixed abutment surface and an inside lock lever are mounted such that movement of the lock link between the first and second positions may be achieved when the superlock link is in the fourth position. When the superlock link is the third position, the relative positions of the inside lock lever, the superlock link and the abutment surface prevent movement of the lock link between the first and second positions.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2006Date of Patent: December 25, 2007Assignee: ArvinMeritor Light Vehicle Systems (UK) LimitedInventors: Peter J Coleman, Gurbinder S.

Patent number: 7070213Abstract: A door release and engagement mechanism for a vehicle comprising a combined inside release and door pull handle and a latch operably connected thereto, wherein the mechanism is so constructed and arranged as to disable the operable connection when the door is ajar and/or unlatched so as to prevent the latch from being mis-set prior to subsequent re-closure of the door.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2002Date of Patent: July 4, 2006Assignee: ArvinMeritor Light Vehicle Systems (UK) Ltd.Inventors: Robin H. Willats, John Emson, Sidney E. Fisher, Gurbinder S. Kalsi, Nigel V. Spurr, Jean B. Didier, Alan G. Dixon, Stephen P. Drysdale

Patent number: 6487819Abstract: A weather strip for use on a vehicle comprises an engaging portion for securing a weather strip to a vehicle and a weather strip body comprising a compressible portion and a magnetic sealing portion. The magnetic sealing portion provides a seal acting in a direction projecting toward a magnetically attractive substrate to provide a sealing interference between the magnetic sealing portion and the substrate when the weather strip is installed on the vehicle and a door closes the opening. The weather strips described herein provide an air and water tight seal without requiring a high compression force, thus improving door operation and reducing closing noise by eliminating the need to slam the door.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2000Date of Patent: December 3, 2002Assignee: Meritor Light Vehicle Technology L.L.CInventors: Ira B. Goldberg, Patricia Cunningham, Timothy X. Bland, Gurbinder S. Kalsi
