Abstract
The invention relates to a door lock provided with a roller catch ( ). When the door is closed an immobile locking part ( ) moves into said roller catch ( ), causing it to pivot from an open position into a preliminary or main latching position, the roller catch ( ) being held by a latch. For greater user comfort and a more compact door lock the invention provides for the same drive motor ( ) to be used as locking aid and as opening aid. A transmission element ( ) which can be moved into two different positions is introduced into the gear assembly ( ). The drive energy generated by the drive motor ( ) is transmitted in one position to the roller catch and in the other position to a second output track leading to the locking latch ( ).
