  • Vehicle door locking system
    Patent number: 4876909
    Abstract: An adjusting device for a door locking system of motor vehicles is described which prevents, by means of a mechanical brake device, the motor after being switched off from further running. Before an adjusting process is started, this brake device simultaneously checks if the adjusting force of the motor is sufficient to actuate the driven element. Moreover, a coupling is realized in the power transmission path by means of a crank pin axially movable.By taking these measures operational and functional reliability is substantially improved.
