Abstract: A door lock device for vehicle includes a latch mechanism adapted to be a vehicle door at an inner space of the vehicle door for holding the vehicle door in closing condition against a vehicle body and sifted between an engaging condition and a disengaging condition, a link mechanism for shifts the latch mechanism from the engaging condition to the disengaging condition by an operation of a door handle mechanism which includes a handle member and a frame member arranged in the inner space of the vehicle door for supports the handle member to the vehicle door and connection means for detachably connected with the frame member of the door handle mechanism.

Abstract: A door lock device includes a latch mechanism selectively engaging with a striker, an open unit operating at a plane surface perpendicular to one direction for transmitting an opening operational force from a vehicle inside and from a vehicle outside to operate the latch mechanism from an engaged state with the striker to the disengaged state from the striker, and a lock unit operating at a plane surface perpendicular to said one direction for transmitting an operational force to the open unit for operating the open unit to be an unlocked state for transmitting the opening operational force to the latch mechanism and a locked state not for transmitting the opening operational force to the latch mechanism.

Abstract: A latch mechanism includes a first base plate, a second base plate facing to the first base plate and having a first base portion, a second base portion, and a recess provided between the first base portion and the second base portion. The latch mechanism further includes a latch rotating relative to a first shaft supported by the first base plate and the first base portion and including an arm portion extending from the first base portion side toward the second base portion side when positioned in a predetermined rotating position thereof, a pawl rotating relative to a second shaft supported by the first base plate and the second base plate, and engaging with the arm portion when the latch is in the predetermined rotating position, and a connecting member connecting the first base plate with the second base plate, and provided at the second shaft side relative to a base line extending along the arm portion when the latch is in the predetermined rotating position.

Abstract: A door lock device includes a latch mechanism engageable with or disengageable from a striker, an open unit transmitting an opening operation force to the latch mechanism for disengaging the latch mechanism from the engagement with the striker, a lock unit transmitting locking and unlocking operation forces to the open unit for operating the open unit between an unlocking condition where the opening operation force is transmittable to the latch mechanism and a locking condition where the opening operation force is not transmittable to the latch mechanism, an actuator for outputting the locking and unlocking operation forces. The door lock device further includes a housing for storing the latch mechanism, the open unit, the lock unit and the actuator as a unit, and a case provided within the housing for accommodating at least the actuator.

Abstract: A vehicle door operating apparatus operated for opening a vehicle door, comprises an opening operation member provided at the vehicle door outside of a compartment and operated for rotating a latch mechanism of the vehicle door relative to a vehicle body from an engaging condition to a disengaging condition, and a vehicle door lock apparatus provided inside of the compartment relative to the opening operation member of the vehicle door and having an unlocked condition that the latch mechanism is rotatable and a locked condition that the latch mechanism is not rotatable based on at least an operation of the opening operation member. The vehicle door operating apparatus further includes an input member provided at the vehicle door lock apparatus for receiving an operating force from the opening operation member provided inside of the compartment, and a cable provided for transmitting the operating force from the opening operation member to the input member.
