A vehicle latch assembly. The vehicle latch assembly including: an electronic latch; and a separate door control unit fixedly secured to an exterior housing of the electronic latch, wherein electronics for controlling operation of the electronic latch are located in the separate door control unit.

Electronic vehicle latch with separately attached control unit

A sensor unit for a car locking system having a touch and/or proximity sensor with an outer surface including a sensor area covered by a sensor area cover adapted to or integrated in the outside shape of a car sealing, preferably a door sealing, window sealing, flap sealing, etc. The sensor unit includes an NFC-Sensor for interaction with smart devices like smart cards, smartphones or the like and the NFC-Sensor has a NFC-Antenna.

Sensor unit for a car locking system

A vehicle latch, including: a claw rotatably mounted to a pin; a pawl rotatably mounted to pin; a single motor for electrically releasing the claw of the latch and for electrically moving the latch into an emergency mode wherein the latch can be mechanically opened via a handle operably coupled to the latch.

Vehicle door latch

A handleless door entry system for a vehicle. The system including: an occupant detection component including a first detection component and a second detection component, wherein the first detection component is configured to detect a device within a predetermined distance of the handleless door entry system, and wherein the second detection component is configured to detect an intent of an object or individual approaching the handleless door entry system.

Apparatus and method for determining access intention recognition for use in a vehicle with a handleless door

A system for operating a handleless door of an automobile having an outer surface includes a remotely-controlled door latch, a sensor disposed at at least one of: disposed behind a window seal; assembled on the window seal; and overmolded in the window seal, and configured to sense an input from a user to open the door, the window seal being configured to transmit an input force to the sensor, and an antenna configured to receive a radio signal from a key fob in vicinity of the antenna. The system also includes a passive entry passive start (PEPS) system coupled to the antenna to authenticate the key fob as being associated with the automobile and a controller configured to receive a signal from the sensor indicating the user provided input to open the door, receive an authentication signal from the PEPS system to authenticate the key fob, and cause the remotely-controlled door latch to release based on receiving the signal from the sensor and the authentication signal from PEPS system.

Handleless door for vehicle

A locking device for car doors without door handles, including: an electronic control unit for authorization of access, the electronic control unit being connected to one or more sensors and/or to an antenna for wireless communication for communication with a smart device; and a driven mechanical lock/or unlock unit including a latching element for latching a closed end position of a car door, wherein the latching element is provided to block an intermediate position of the car door, into which the car door is movable dependent on a correct access authorization and wherein the intermediate position of the car door enables a grip behind an outside surface of the car door to unlock the intermediate position of the car door and to allow further movement of the car door into an open end position.

Locking device for car doors

The invention relates to a locking device for car doors, especially for car doors without door handles, having an electronic control unit for the authorization of access, which is connected to one or more sensors for a first operating step, i.e. a proximity sensor, a touch sensor etc. and/or an antenna for a wireless communication, i.e. a NFC (near field communication) antenna for NFC-communication with a smart device like a smart card, a mobile phone, a smart watch, a smart key, etc., and a driven mechanical lock/or unlock unit including a latching element for latching the closed door end position. According to the invention, a latching element is provided to block an intermediate positionof the car door, wherein at least one sensoris accessible and/or active in the intermediate positionof the car doorfor a second operating step and not accessible and/or not, active in the closed end positionof the car door.
