Abstract: An adjustable pedal assembly for a motor vehicle includes a bracket for mounting the adjustable pedal assembly to the motor vehicle. A pivot link is pivotally mounted to the bracket. The pivot link has a first guide slot and a first pin. A pedal is pivotally secured to the pivot link and includes an arm. The arm has a second guide slot and a second pin. The second guide slot works in conjunction with the first pin whereas the first guide slot works in conjunction with the second guide pin. Together, these pairings define the relative movement between the pivot link and the pedal arm. A drive assembly extends between said first pin and said second pin. The drive assembly slides the pedal arm relative to the pivot link to extend and retract the pedal with respect to the operator.

Abstract: A power drive assembly moves a liftgate (12) of a motor vehicle (10) between its open and closed positions. The motor vehicle (10) defines an opening and the liftgate (12) closes the opening when the liftgate (12) is in its closed position. The power drive assembly (22) includes a base (24) that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle (10) at a position in spaced relation to the opening. A drive mechanism (38) is fixedly secured to the guide. The drive mechanism (38) converts electrical energy into a linear force. The power drive assembly (22) includes a translation linkage (58) connected to the drive mechanism (38) for receiving the linear force and translating it into a nonlinear force to move the liftgate (12) between the open position and the closed position. A nut (52), secured to the translation linkage (58), moves the translation linkage (58) as it travels along a lead screw (50) that is rotated by a motor (40).

Abstract: A latch assembly (10) has a housing having a mouth. A ratchet (12) is pivotally mounted to the housing and is movable to cooperate with the mouth to pivot between an open condition, a primary closed condition and a secondary closed condition for receiving, engaging and cinching a keeper of a striker. The ratchet (12) is biased to the open condition. A pivotally mounted pawl (40) is biased into engagement with the ratchet for releasably retaining the ratchet in the primary closed condition. A secondary release arm (20) is mounted to rotate about a first axis and a second axis. The secondary release arm (20) is rotatable about the first axis between a retracted position and an extended position, and is rotatable out the second axis between an engaging position and a disengaging position. The secondary release arm (20) is biased to the retracted position and biased to the engaging position. The secondary release arm (20) interengages with the ratchet (12) for coupled movement therewith from the primary closed condition to the secondary closed condition effecting movement of the secondary release arm (20) from the retracted position to the extended position upon the pawl (40) being rotated to disengage from the ratchet (12). Upon moving the secondary release arm (20) from the engaging position to the disengaging position, the secondary release arm (20) disengages from the ratchet (12) for independent movement enabling the ratchet (12) to rotate from the secondary closed condition to the open condition and back to the primary closed condition. The secondary release arm (20) also rotates from the extended position to the retracted position.

Abstract: A power liftgate drive assembly (10) moves a liftgate (12) of a motor vehicle (14) between an open position and a closed position. The power liftgate assembly (10) is aligned along the side of the motor vehicle (14). A liftgate rod (46) extends in a generally vertical orientation between the power liftgate drive assembly (10) and the liftgate (12). The assembly (10) includes a base (24) that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle (14) near a load floor (22). A guide (28) extends upwardly from the base (24). The guide (28) extends along the side of the motor vehicle (14) and is disposed adjacent the liftgate (12) when the liftgate (12) is in the closed position. A liftgate carriage (40) is connected to the guide (28). The liftgate carriage (40) slides along the guide (28). The liftgate rod (46) is pivotally connected between the liftgate carriage (40) and the liftgate (12). The liftgate rod (46) translates the linear movement of the liftgate carriage (40) into the pivotal movement of the liftgate (12) to move the liftgate (12) between the open and closed positions.

Abstract: An automation assembly is adapted to be connected to a door system of a moto r vehicle. The automation assembly is modular and includes a frame that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle . A motor is fixedly secured to the frame and adapted to receive power. The motor converts the power into a rotational output force. The motor includes a non-ferrous core. A set of pulleys and rollers are fixedly secured to the frame at predetermined positions to direct the path of a continuous belt. The continuous belt is fixedly secured to the door system such that the motor moves the continuo us belt and the door system bidirectionally between an open position and a closed position. Sensors are used to determine the position of the door, the speed thereof and whether the door is being moved manually.

Abstract: A power striker mechanism (10) has a housing (22). A striker (18) is mounted on a striker plate (20) that is mounted on the housing for sliding movement between an inboard and an outboard position. A driver plate (44) is mounted to the housing for sliding movement in a direction orthogonal to the movement of the striker plate (20). An actuator (16) effects movement of the driver plate (44) to thereby effect movement of the striker plate (20) between the inboard and outboard positions. The striker plate (20) has a pin (36) and the driver plate has an S-shaped slot (42). The pin slidably engages the S-shaped slot. The S-shaped slot has end regions extending generally parallel to each other and in the orthogonal direction a nd is interconnected by a diagonally extending section. When the pin (36) is in the end regions of the S-shaped slot, forces imparte d on the striker plate (20) are transmitted to the housing (22) and thereby preventing backlash of the actuator (16). When the pin (36) is in the diagonally extending section, movement of the drive plate (44) effects movement of the striker plate (20).

Abstract: A power sliding door assembly (12) for a motor vehicle comprising a door structure (20) mounted on a motor vehicle for movement between closed and opened positions and a drive assembly (22) mounted on the door structure (20). The drive assembly (22) includes a rotatable gear (24) engageable with a gear track (26) provided on the vehicle. The rotatable gear (24) is drivable in a one direction to effect movement of the door towards the opened position and drivable in an opposite direction to effect movement of the door structure (20) towards the closed position. A drive shaft is coupled with the drive assembly (22) and is constructed and arranged to rotatably drive the rotatable gear (24). A reversible motor is mounted on said door structure (20) and is energizable to drive the drive shaft (36) in a first direction to enable the drive shaft to drive the rotatable gear (24) in the one direction, and energizable to drive the drive shaft (36) in a second direction opposite the first direction to enable the drive shaft (36) to drive the rotatable gear (24) in the opposite direction.

Abstract: A vehicle door latch assembly is movable between an unlocked condition, a locked condition and a double locked condition. The door latch assembly (10) has a support housing (16) with a cover having a projecting block. A ratchet (18) is mounted to the support housing between a latched position and an unlatched position. A pawl (26) is mounted to the support housing (16) and is movable between a blocking position securing the ratchet (18) in the latched position and a release position permitting the ratchet to pivot toward the unlatched position. A release mechanism (32) is mounted to the support housing (16) for moving the pawl (26) into the release position. A slider (36) is coupled between the pawl (26) an d the release mechanism (32). The slider (36) moves between an engaged position aligned with the release mechanism and a disengaged position spaced from the release mechanism. A locking mechanism (42) is pivotally connected to the support housing and pitotally engaging the slider for providing the sliding movement of the slider. An inside lock lever (62) engages the locking mechanism (42) for rotating the locking mechanism, effecting movement of the slider (36) between the unlocked condition and the first locked position.
