Abstract: The invention relates to a detection device (1) for a motor vehicle (VI) comprising at least one optical detector (3). Said at least one optical detector (3) being configured for detecting the approach of a person (U) in a predefined area in the vicinity of the vehicle in order to activate opening command means of a device for opening a movable panel (5, 7) of the vehicle (VI). According to the invention: —said detection device (1) comprises switching means for switching the function of the at least one optical detector (3) to a detecting function of an obstacle (V2) at a predefined distance of the vehicle (VI) when the identifier of an authorized person (U) is detected inside the vehicle (VI) and the vehicle movable panels (5, 7) are closed, and wherein—said detection device (1) comprises processing means configured to react depending on a detection of an obstacle (V2) by the optical sensor (3).

Abstract: The invention provides a key (10), of the type comprising a stem (14) which is retractable in relation to a case (12), in which the stem (14) comprises a lug (18), by means of which it is articulated in relation to the case (12), which comprises angular locking means (22) for locking the stem (14) in the retracted position and angular locking means (22) for locking the stem (14) in the deployed position, characterized in that the locking means comprise a single locking element (22) mounted such that it can move inside the case (12), which co-operates directly with the lug (18) of the stem (14) in order to lock the stem (14) in the retracted or deployed position.

Abstract: A key including a retractable shaft mounted pivotably with respect to a case forming an operating head of the key, between a retracted position in which the shaft extends in a substantially longitudinal direction inside a housing of the case, and a deployed position in which the shaft extends outside the case. The shaft has a first end forming a heel by which the shaft is pivoted about a vertical pivot axis orthogonal to the axis of the shaft. The key includes a drive mechanism for driving the shaft toward one of the retracted position or the deployed operating position. The drive mechanism includes a resiliently deformable element, which exerts a resilient force to return the shaft toward the retracted or deployed position, according to the angular position of the shaft with respect to an intermediate position of the shaft between the deployed position and the retracted position.

Abstract: The invention proposes a key (10) having a retractable shaft (14) which is mounted pivotably with respect to a case (12) forming the operating head of the key (10), between a retracted position and a deployed operating position in which the shaft (14) has a first end (18) forming a heel by means of which the shaft (14) is pivoted with respect to the case (12) about a vertical pivot axis (A), and which has means for driving the shaft (14) toward its retracted position or toward its deployed position, characterized in that the drive means include a resiliently deformable element (34), which exerts a resilient force on the shaft (14) to return the shaft (14) toward its retracted or deployed position, according to the position of the shaft (14) with respect to a predetermined position which is intermediate between the deployed position and the folded-back position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary cylinder lock (1) which is designed to be actuated with a multi-groove key. The inventive lock comprises: a rotor (10) which is mounted such that it can rotate inside a stator (20) and at least one spring which is mounted such that it can move inside a guide housing (41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46) between a locked position and an unlocked position each spring being coupled to an elastic return means which moves same into the locked position. The invention is characterised in that each guide housing (41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46) can receive two different types of springs which can co-operate respectively with each of the two key grooves which extend such as to oppose the drive force exerted by the associated elastic return means when the key is inserted into the rotor.

Abstract: Slide rail for vehicle seat comprising two profiles, a latch and an unlocking device moveable into an active position to hold the latch in the unlocked position in order to allow the seat to slide forward, this unlocking device being then held in its active position by a pivoting hook. On this hook is mounted a pivoting actuator finger designed to retract elastically without causing the hook to pivot when it passes over a fixed stop when the seat slides forward, and to pivot in the opposite direction by releasing the hook when it meets the stop during a rearward movement of the seat.

Abstract: A slide rail for a vehicle seat, comprising a fixed section, a mobile section, a memory retaining runner sliding along the fixed section and defining a memorized position of the mobile section, a runner catch, a first control to simultaneously unlock the slide rail and clip the runner to the mobile section, and a second control to only unlock the slide rail. The runner catch is brought resiliently to its unlocked position, and it is moved into its locked position by engagement with a cam surface integral with the mobile section, only when this mobile section leaves its memorized position or returns into said memorized position.
