Abstract: A vehicle door locking device Ao is integrated by assembling a base unit A2 provided with a latch mechanism A2a to a housing unit A1 provided with an actuating mechanism for actuating the latch mechanism A2a. A metal sub-base plate 27 of the base unit A2 has an attachment hole 27a fitted to a support shaft 11a provided in the housing unit A1 in the axial direction thereof, the support shaft extending in the vehicle length direction. The attachment hole 27a of the metal sub-base plate 27 is fitted to the support shaft 11a, so that the base unit A2 is integrated with the housing unit A1. The metal sub-base plate 27 is provided with a receiving portion 27b for restraining a lean in the vehicle width direction (W direction) of a child-proof lever 36 at a back part of the child-proof lever 36.

Abstract: A door lock device for a vehicle, provided with an opening lever driven as a door handle is operated, an opening link interposed between the opening lever and a lift lever of a latch mechanism, a lock operation unit for switching the opening link to an unlock position or a lock position, and a locking lever for driving the lock operation unit. A retaining portion is provided to the opening lever. The retaining portion holds the opening link at a retaining position between the lock position and the unlock position when the opening link becomes switched by the locking lever through the lock operation unit from the lock position to the unlock position with the opening link driven by the opening lever.

Abstract: A door lock device includes a lever mechanism which carries out lock/unlock operation in response to turn operation of a key cylinder. The lever mechanism includes a key rotor which includes a coupling hole to which an inner end of a rod is coupled in a torque transmittable manner and is rotatably assembled to a housing, and a key lever which includes a hub which is coupled to the key rotor in a torque transmittable manner and is arranged in the housing. The key lever includes a first arm which extends to radial outward direction from the hub and is capable of engaging with a first engagement portion of the active lever, and a second arm which extends to radial outward direction from the hub and is capable of engaging with a second engagement portion of the active lever.

Abstract: A door lock device includes an electrical drive source, which pivots a drive member from a predetermined neutral position, and a return urging member, which returns the drive member to the predetermined neutral position. The drive member pushes a locking lever with a first engagement portion and moves the locking lever to a lock position when the drive member moves from the predetermined neutral portion in a first direction in a state in which the locking lever is arranged at an unlock position. The drive member allows the double lock lever to move to the second position and disengages the first engagement portion from the locking lever when subsequently returned to the predetermined neutral position. The drive member pushes the double lock lever with a second engagement portion when moved again from the predetermined neutral position in the first direction.
