  • Publication number: 20250092720
    Abstract: A vehicle door locking mechanism includes a lock cylinder for locking or unlocking a vehicle door by rotating a control paddle linked to a door latch, a kinematic lever provided on an inner door handle frame and linked to the door latch to allow opening of the door from inside a passenger cabin by rotation of an inner door handle, and a stopper knob supported by the inner door handle frame and a displaceable stopper which can be manually actuated by the stopper knob between a first position allowing rotation of the control paddle and a second position in which the stopper blocks the rotation of the control paddle preventing therefore opening of the vehicle door.

  • Publication number: 20250092721
    Abstract: A vehicle door locking mechanism includes a lock cylinder for locking or unlocking a vehicle door by rotating a control paddle linked to a door latch. The vehicle door locking mechanism also includes a slidable stopper which can be manually actuated from inside the door between a first position allowing rotation of the control paddle and a second position in which the stopper blocks rotation of the control paddle preventing therefore opening of the vehicle door from outside.

  • Patent number: 12054974
    Abstract: A latch for a motor vehicle includes a bolt, a pawl, and a striker. The bolt is movable in rotation about a bolt axis. The pawl is movable in rotation about a pawl axis. The latch is configured to move between a partially closed position, a totally closed position, and an open position. In the partially closed position, the pawl abuts against the bolt on a first hooking point of the pawl and the striker is trapped by the bolt. In the totally closed position, the pawl abuts against the bolt on a second hooking point of the pawl, distinct from the first hooking point of the pawl, and the striker is trapped by the bolt. In the open position, the striker is released from the bolt.

  • Patent number: 11927035
    Abstract: A sheath end piece of a connecting element that connects two vehicle door opening devices includes a base, a mounting element, and a dismounting element. The connecting element includes a cable which is partially covered with a sheath. The base is mounted on an end portion of the sheath and includes a fastening interface to permit the mounting and dismounting of the connecting element on one of the two door opening devices. The mounting element permits exerting a pressure on the fastening interface so as to permit the mounting of the connecting element. The dismounting element permits exerting a traction on the fastening interface so as to permit the dismounting of the connecting element. At least one of the mounting element and the dismounting element protrudes from the base.
