Abstract: A push button release apparatus for releasing a door of a vehicle has a housing secured to the door of the vehicle. The housing defines a cavity. A push button supported by the housing is slidable relative to the housing and moves between an inoperative location and an operative location. A cam device pivotally supported about a pivotal axis has a first termination defining a cam surface that cooperates with the push button and a second termination connected to a cable. When the push button is moved from the inoperative location toward the operative location the cam rotates about the pivotal axis and the second termination of the cam device moves, pulling the cable for releasing the door of the vehicle.

Abstract: A push button release apparatus is disclosed for releasing a door of a vehicle. The apparatus includes a housing that is secured to the door of the vehicle, the housing having a first and a second end and a first and a second extremity. The housing defines a cavity that extends between the first and the second end of the housing, the cavity extending between the first and the second extremities of the housing. A push button is supported by the housing, the push button being slidably disposed relative to the housing such that the push button moves between an inoperative location disposed adjacent to the first extremity of the housing and an operative location disposed adjacent to the second extremity of the housing. A cam has a first and a second termination, the cam being pivotally supported about a pivotal axis that is disposed between the first and the second termination of the cam.
