A remote cinching actuator, which includes an integral motor wherein its rotation will drive the two stage drive gears system, that are coupled to a cable lever. This cable lever is mechanically attached to a cinch lever within the side door latch by the cable. The lever will rotate on its pivot and move the cinch drive link. A bearing attached to the cinch drive link will move during the cinching operation, traveling through a canal of a cinch override lever, to maintain the traveling course of the cinch drive link and, thereby, allowing the interaction between the cinch drive link and a claw to rotate the claw to its closed/primary position. A vehicle side door latch, including an integral motor and a power release gear for performing a power release function of the latch wherein the rotation of the motor in a power release direction will drive the power release gear which in turn will hit a power release lever to move the pawl release lever, so that the former can interact with a pawl lifter, coupled to the latch pawl, thereby allowing the claw to rotate to its open position. The side door latch also consists of a cinch override lever which allows the cancellation of the cinching function at any time of the cinching travel by interacting with a cinch override clutch lever, and in turn with a cinch override clutch link which is attached to both, the pawl release lever and the cinch override clutch lever. These interactions within the latch will allow the disengagement of the cinch drive link from the latch claw.

Side door latch

A cable return assist assembly for a vehicle latch mechanism, including: a housing; a cable; a guide feature secured to the cable; and a spring positioned about the cable, the spring contacting the housing at one end of the spring and the guide feature at an opposite end of the spring when the cable, the spring and the guide feature are installed into the housing, the housing having an opening that allows the spring and the guide feature to be inserted into a cavity of the housing and a portion of the cable is received in a first opening located at one end of the housing and another portion of the cable is received in a second opening located at an opposite end of the housing.

Cable return assist assembly for vehicle latch mechanism

A vehicle door presenter actuator, including: an extension bar that is driven outward from the door presenter actuator by a nut that threadingly engages a power screw operatively secured to a motor of the vehicle door presenter actuator; and a barrel cam that is pivoted into contact with a switch as a pin of the nut slides within a cam path of the barrel cam as the nut drives the extension bar outward from the vehicle door presenter actuator.

Door presenter actuator for vehicle door

A vehicle latch assembly includes a housing. Also included is a pawl disposed within the housing, the pawl rotatable between a first angular position and a second angular position. Further included is a bumper operatively coupled to the housing, the bumper having a conical head portion positioned for engagement with the pawl in the second angular position of the pawl.

Bumper component for vehicle latch assembly

A door inside release spring for a vehicle door assembly includes a torsional spring body, and a first spring arm extending from a first axial end of the spring body. The first spring arm is configured to be operably connected to an inside release lever to bias a position of the inside release lever. A second spring arm extends from a second axial end of the spring body opposite the first axial end. The second spring arm is configured to be operably connected to a child lock lever to bias a position of the child lock lever.

Inside release spring for vehicle door

A cable conduit end for securing a cable to a cable abutment of a latch is provided. The cable conduit end having: a housing; an alignment feature incorporated into a surface of the housing; a flexible retention feature integrally formed with the conduit end, wherein the flexible retention feature is spring biased away from the housing to a first position; and a radial retention feature extending outwardly away from the housing, wherein the flexible retention feature is located proximate to a first end of the housing and the radial retention feature is located proximate to a second end of the housing.

Cable end fitting and cable abutment and method of securement

A latch having: a claw configured to rotate between an unlatched position and a latched position; a pawl configured for movement between an engaged position and a disengaged position, wherein the pawl retains the claw in the latched position when the pawl is in the engaged position and wherein the pawl releases the claw when it is in a disengaged position and the claw is free to move from the latched position to the unlatched position; a bumper located on the pawl to dampen noises as the pawl is moved by a portion of the claw; and wherein the detent lever is pivotally mounted to a frame of the latch proximate to a corner of an opening of the latch.
