The locking apparatus for sliding door is provided, the locking apparatus comprising a glass safety stopper and a hold-open lock striker sequentially provided in a vehicle body in an opening direction of the sliding door as it moves from a closed position to an open position. The apparatus further includes a roller bracket provided at the sliding door and a locking lever rotatably provided at the roller bracket. The locking lever has a locking protrusion configured to be locked to the glass safety stopper to limit movement of the sliding door in the opening direction and an engagement recess configured to be engaged with the hold-open lock striker to limit movement of the sliding door in the opening direction and a closing direction. A first elastic member is configured to bias the locking lever. The locking apparatus further includes a window glass lever rotatably provided at the roller bracket, connected to a window glass provided at the sliding door via a first cable, and configured to interlock with the locking lever. A second elastic member is configured to bias the glass lever. The locking apparatus further includes a connecting lever rotatably provided at the roller bracket, connected to a handle provided at the sliding door via a second cable, and configured to interlock with the locking lever.

Locking apparatus for sliding door

A linear center rail structure for a sliding door includes a linear center rail, a roller part, a base, and an arm. The linear center rail is disposed on a side outer panel of a vehicle. The roller part is guided by the center rail, slid along the center rail, and has hinge holes formed at an end portion thereof. The base is fixed to a sliding door panel and has slots formed in a pop-up direction of the sliding door panel. The arm has one end at which a first hinge shaft rotatably coupled to the hinge holes of the roller part is disposed and the other end at which a second hinge shaft fitted into the slots of the base to thereby be slidably and rotatably coupled to the base is disposed.

Linear center rail structure for sliding door

A linear type center rail link structure of a sliding door for a vehicle includes: a linear type center rail corresponding to the sliding door and mounted at a side of a car body; a base provided to be movable along the center rail; a link arm having one end rotatably inserted into the base; a slider rotatably connected to the other end of the link arm and having an outer side coupled to the sliding door slid from the car body; and a latch part provided in the base to limit rotation of the link arm. Therefore, an indoor invasion amount of the center rail is minimized, thereby making it possible to secure an indoor space, the linear type center rail is used, thereby making it possible to improve a design of a vehicle, and the link structure is provided, thereby making it possible to improve operability.
