    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 carnage (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: A power liftgate drive assembly (10) moves a liftgate (12) of a motor vehicl e (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 liftgat e rod (46) extends in a generally vertical orientation between the power liftgate drive assembly (10) and the liftgate (12). The assembly (10) includ es 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 th e 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: A power sliding door (10) for a motor vehicle comprises a door structure, a power drive assembly, a latch assembly (22), and a single motor (108) for operating both the latch assembly (22) and the power drive assembly (14). The door structure is mounted on a track (204) associated with the motor vehicle, the door structure being movable along the track (204) between opened and closed positions. The power drive assembly (14) is connected with the door (10) and capable of being driven to move the door (10) along the track (204) between the opened and closed positions. The latch assembly (22) is mounted on the door (10) and movable between latched and unlatched positions. The single motor (108) is mounted on the door structure operative ly connected with both the power drive assembly (14) and the latch assembly (22). The motor (108) drives the power drive assembly (14) an d thus enables the power drive assembly (14) to move the door along the track between the opened and closed positions. The motor (108 ) assists movement of the latch assembly (22) to the latched position after the power drive assembly (14) moves the door (10) to the clos ed position.

The power drive assembly is connected with the door and capable of being driven to move the door along the track between the opened and closed positions. The latch assembly is mounted on the door and movable between latched and unlatched positions. The single motor is mounted on the door structure operatively connected with both the power drive assembly and the latch assembly. The motor drives the power drive assembly and thus enables the power drive assembly to move the door along the track between the opened and closed positions. The motor assists movement of the latch assembly to the latched position after the power drive assembly moves the door to the closed position.
