Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A motor vehicle door lock is provided with a catch with an actuating-lever mechanism which acts on the catch. There is also a locking lever which, together with the actuating lever, renders the actuating-lever mechanism inactive when accelerating forces of predetermined magnitude occur, for example in the event of a crash. The actuating lever and locking lever disable the actuating-lever mechanism mechanically, as a result of the accelerating forces occurring, by associated deflection. Following dissipation of the accelerating forces, the actuating lever and locking lever reconnect the actuating-lever mechanism.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. Motor vehicle door lock comprising: a catch; an actuating lever mechanism acting directly on the catch and including a first actuating lever and a second actuating lever; and a locking lever which renders the actuating lever mechanism inactive when an accelerating force of predetermined magnitude occurs, wherein in response to the accelerating force, the locking lever and the first actuating lever deflect from a normal position to a deflection posi…
