A vehicle door opening/closing device includes: door lock devices each installed in a door and including a latch mechanism and an open lever capable of transmitting a releasing operation force to the latch mechanism; a fully closing lock releasing member rotatably provided in the door and rotating based on the releasing operation force; cables whose both terminals are connected to the open levers and the fully closing lock releasing member and causing the open levers to rotate to a releasing operation positions from an initial positions; and lost motion mechanisms at least one of which is disposed on the fully closing lock releasing member side of the cables and that, when one of the open levers is bound at the releasing operation position, allow the remainder of the open levers to return to the initial position.

Vehicle door opening/closing device

A remote control device for a vehicle includes an interior handle coupling lever that rotates in accordance with manipulation of an interior manipulating handle, an exterior handle coupling lever that rotates in accordance with manipulation of an exterior manipulating handle, and a switch device. The switch device includes an interior manipulation detector for detecting rotation of the interior manipulating handle, an exterior manipulation detector for detecting rotation of the exterior manipulating handle, and wiring members each having a detector connection terminal and an external connection terminal connected to the interior manipulation detector or the exterior manipulation detector. The remote control device further includes a body and a housing. The body accommodates the interior manipulation detector, the exterior manipulation detector, and the wiring members and has a connector portion enclosing all of the exterior connection terminals for the wiring members. The housing covers the body.

Remote control for vehicles

A vehicle door opening/closing device includes: an inside handle mounted to a vehicle door and operated from a vehicle interior to perform a door opening/closing operation; an outside handle mounted to the door and operated from a vehicle exterior to perform the door opening/closing operation; a locking mechanism actuated to lock the door at a predetermined position; an open mechanism; a release mechanism; and a cancel mechanism. The open mechanism is actuated according to operation of the inside and outside handles to release the lock by the locking mechanism. The release mechanism includes an electric motor and a power-transmission member transmitting electric motor power to the open mechanism, and actuates the open mechanism to release the lock of the door. Further, the cancel mechanism is actuated by operating the inside and outside handles to interrupt transmission of the electric motor driving force to the open mechanism by the power-transmission member.

Vehicle door opening-closing device

A door opening and closing apparatus for a vehicle includes a latch unit holding a vehicle door in a closed state, a lift lever operatively connected to the latch unit, an open lever operatively connected to the lift lever, a locking lever switching a locking knob between a locked stated and an unlocked state, the locking lever including a first lever connected to the open lever and a second lever connected to the first lever for relative rotation with a predetermined angle, the second lever operated by a locking actuator, a biasing member disposed between the first lever and the second lever to bias the second lever in a direction of an original position, and an outside lever including an outside handle lever connected to the outside handle and a release lever connected to the lift lever and operated by a release actuator.
