A motor vehicle lock, in particular a motor vehicle door lock, comprising a locking mechanism consisting essentially of a rotary latch and a pawl, further comprising an actuation lever chain for the locking mechanism, and comprising a locking element, at least one securing element, and exactly one spring element that cooperates with both the locking element and the securing element. The actuation lever chain can be controlled via the locking element to be put at least into the functional states 'unlocked' and “locked” and can be additionally controlled via the securing element to be put into the functional states “non-secured” and “secured.” According to the invention, the spring element additionally cooperates with the actuation lever chain.

Motor vehicle lock, in particular motor vehicle door lock

The invention relates to a motor vehicle lock, in particular a motor vehicle door lock, which is equipped with a locking mechanism () composed, essentially, of a rotary latch () and a pawl (). Furthermore, a securing device () and and an emergency actuation element () for the securing device are realized. The securing device () has at least one securing lever (), which can be acted upon both by a first motor drive () and by an emergency actuation lever () as part of the emergency actuation element (). According to the invention, the first securing lever () has a spring () for positioning the first securing lever.

Motor vehicle, in particular motor vehicle door lock

A motor vehicle lock includes a catch, a pawl, and a latch plate, wherein the catch and the pawl are rotatably supported on the latch plate, the latch plate has at least two openings for mounting the motor vehicle lock, and the latch plate has an inlet slot for a latch holder, and wherein a splay lying opposite the inlet slot is provided on the latch plate, wherein the splay has the form of a semicircle at least in an end region opposite the inlet slot.

Motor vehicle lock

The invention relates to a motor vehicle lock, comprising a lock housing, a lock case, a locking mechanism and an operating device, wherein at least one component of the operating device extends through an opening in the lock housing and said opening is designed with at least one reinforcing insert. The main area of the plate or the metal sheet from which the lock case is made is basically relatively large. In light of this, it has proved advantageous to form the reinforcing insert from the lock case. Waste is thus avoided.

Reinforced motor vehicle lock

The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock () comprising: a lock housing (); an actuating nut () that is rotatably mounted in the lock housing (), the actuating nut () being mounted in the lock housing () such that said actuating nut can be rotated by an actuator acting externally on the actuating nut (); and a locking lever (), the locking lever () being displaceable by means of a rotation of the actuating nut (). The actuating nut () can be positioned in the lock housing by means of a housing cover ().

Motor vehicle door lock

The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock comprising a locking mechanism consisting essentially of a rotary latch and a pawl, further comprising an actuation lever mechanism () that acts on the pawl, and a child safety device () that includes a child safety lever () to which the force of a spring () is applied. According to the invention, the child safety lever () and the spring () are designed as a subassembly ().

The invention relates to a motor vehicle door lock comprising a locking mechanism, at least one locking lever () and an electric drive () for the locking mechanism. In normal operation, said electric drive () acts upon the locking mechanism for an electric opening. Additionally, the electric drive () allows the locking mechanism to be mechanically opened at least for an emergency operation. According to the invention, said locking lever () remains, in the normal operation, in the 'locked' position, also when opened electrically.
