Abstract
A remote control door-lock device connected to front and rear door lock devices for an automotive vehicle used to lock/unlock the front and rear vehicle doors from a position near a driver seat comprises one or two guide plates having a slot formed therein and one or two actuation members having projection pins on one side thereof and an opening on the other side thereof. The guide plates are controlled by a remote control lever via a cable, and the slots thereof engage the pins so that the guide plates control the position of the actuation members, but with some mutual free travel. The actuation members also engage with front and rear door lock members, usable by passengers, so that if the remote control lever is actuated, the door lock members are in turn actuated to lock the respective doors, and to disable the door lock members. That is, the door lock members can be actuated either directly or by the remote control lever.
