Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle pivotal closure type power-operated assembly remotely controlling the opening or closing of a vehicle closing section and having power. SOLUTION: The closing assembly has a hidden power actuator remotely operated by a controller to open or close the closing section, i.e., a lift gate. The hinge member 18 of the power actuator 16 is coupled with a vehicle structure section pivotably around a hinge shaft 24 and rigidly fitted to the closing section. An armature is extended from a slender linear moving rack to the hinge member pivotably around a rack pivotal shaft. The armature is coupled with the hinge member 18 pivotably around a second pivotal shaft arranged in parallel with the hinge shaft 24 and the rack pivotal shaft 26. The rack is driven by a pinion gear train operated by a motor via a clutch. A hinge, the rack, the gear train, and the motor are wholly supported by a modular reinforcing tray 27 coupled with the structure section.

Abstract: The latch includes the actuator with the first wheel selectively reversibly powered to rotate along a first axis, and the second wheel coaxial with the first wheel. The second wheel has a first face directed toward the first wheel. At least one arcuate slot is formed on one of the wheels with a centre of rotation generally co-terminus with the first axis, the slot having first and second ends spaced from one another and a pin connected on the other wheel so that the arcuate slot is formed on it. The pin is captured by the slot between the ends of the slot and is able to move between them. The second wheel further includes a cam profile on a second face opposite the first face, the cam profile encapturing the stud of the manually operated locking lever. Rotation of the second wheel in a first circular direction will cause the manually operated locking lever to pivot moving the locking lever to the locking position and rotational movement of the second wheel in a second circular direction opposite the first circular direction will cause the manually operated locking to pivot moving the locking lever to the unlocked position. The manually operated locking lever can be moved between the locked and unlocked positions, without any substantial movement of the first wheel. A motor is connected with a worm gear which is meshed with a geared surface of the first wheel.
