Abstract: “An assembly for opening and/or closing a vehicle door includes a grip member configured to be attached to an external side of a vehicle door. The grip member includes a base configured to extend from the vehicle door when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door, and a gripping part extending from the base toward an upper direction when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door. The assembly further includes an electronic switch subassembly configured to be attached to the grip member and to be activated by a user's touch and send a signal to an electronic latch to open the door. The electronic switch subassembly includes a switch contact area facing downwards when the grip member is attached to the external side of the vehicle door.”

Abstract: A handle for a vehicle door includes a grip member movable between a flush position, an active position and an opening position; a first actuation mechanism including a first return element configured to drive the first actuation mechanism toward a rest position so as to bring the grip member toward the flush position; a second actuation mechanism including a second return element configured to drive the second actuation mechanism so as to bring the grip member toward the flush position. The handle is configured such that a third return element participates in bringing the grip member toward the flush position in case the first return element and second return element are insufficient to bring the grip member toward the flush position.

Abstract: An electronic switch subassembly to be assembled to an inner side of a vehicle door is configured to be activated by a user's touch so as to send a signal to an electronic latch to open the door. The switch subassembly includes a switch contact area extending across a transverse direction with respect to the path to be followed by the user's hand to reach the switch contact area when the subassembly is assembled to the vehicle door, and at least two switch elements. Each switch element includes one or more switch(es). The switch elements are arranged at different positions along the transverse direction so that a user's touch on the switch contact area activates at least one of the switches.

Abstract: A vehicle door handle assembly includes a handle body. The handle body is configured to set a lock of the vehicle door to a locked state in response to a push action by a user and to set the lock to an unlocked state in response to a pull action by the user. A pressure sensor disposed in the handle body is configured to detect the push and pull actions on the handle from a rest position of the handle. The pressure sensor is arranged in the handle body to provide a pressure signal representative of a pressure applied to the handle body. The pressure signal is representative of a non-zero pressure value when the handle is in the rest position. The pressure value decreases in response to the handle being submitted to the push action and increases in response to the handle being submitted to the pull action.

Abstract: A handle for a vehicle door includes a cover member configured to be secured to a bracket. The cover member includes an access part to a mechanical lockset, the access part having an opening through which the mechanical lockset can be accessed, defining an opening axis passing through the opening, and a cover element configured to be movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, so that when in the unlocked position, the cover element can be moved away from to the opening such that the mechanical lockset can be accessed. The cover element is configured to be moved from the unlocked position to the unlocked position by rotating the cover element with respect to the access part according to the opening axis.

Abstract: A car access assembly includes a handle configured to be attached on a car door and an electronic sensing unit. The electronic sensing unit includes a sensor configured to be attached on an extension portion of the handle and/or to a bracket configured to cooperate with the handle. The extension portion and/or the bracket is configured to be installed on or facing an internal side of a part of the car door extending according to a reference plane. The assembly also includes a fixing mechanism for the sensor so that a constraint applied to the handle is transmitted to the sensor for detection of a command via the extension portion and/or the bracket.

Abstract: A device for identifying a position of a grip member of a vehicle handle includes a cam rotatably movable inside the device around an axis fixed relative to the grip member. The cam is rotatably secured to a lever, which is rotatably movable around the axis, so that an angular position of the cam around the axis is directly related to an angular position of the lever around the axis. The angular position of the lever is also mechanically related to the position of the grip member. The device includes at least one switch secured to the handle and complementary to a member of the cam, so that the at least one switch is configured to be in electrical contact with the member of the cam when the angular position of the cam is equal to one or more predetermined angular positions around the axis.
