Abstract: A lock system is provided with a function controlling mechanism for control of the lock states unlocked, locked and optionally theft secure and child safety. The lock system is characterized by very short times for controlling the desired locking states and good suitability to various requirements with regard to construction space and functionality. The lock system comprises locking pieces, for example a turning latch or lock handle, in a lock for the mechanical locking of the door, at least one operating device in the form of an external door opener and/or an internal door opener, an optional locking cylinder, and elements for transmitting the operating force from the operating device to the locking pieces. The pieces of the function controlling mechanism (FSM), involved in controlling the locking state are not involved in the force path between the operating device and the locking pieces of the lock.

Abstract: A motor vehicle door with a door body includes a door outer shell and a door inner shell between which a window lifter for lifting and lowering a window pane is configured within a door shaft. A component disposed inside the door shaft presents a crosslink between the window pane or the window lifter and at least one door shell. As an antitheft protection the component rests against the window pane or the window lifter under prestress and is swiveled, when the window pane is lifted, from the door shaft into a positive lock position with the door shell by a catch or support disposed on the window pane. In order to improve lateral and front-crash protection, the component is linked with the window pane and establishes a positive or negative lock between the door shells in a defined position of the window pane.

Abstract: A vehicle door closure includes a door lock containing a closing element, an outer opening handle pivotally mounted in a holding plate or handle shell of the vehicle door, a coupling element connecting the door lock to the outer opening handle and a connecting device that connects the coupling element to the outer opening handle and compensates for tolerances between the door lock and the outer opening handle. The connecting device is arranged in the coupling element in such a way that it can be moved longitudinally and connected to the coupling element in a positive or non-positive fit manner during assembly of the outer opening handle, the connecting device being locked on the coupling element.
