Abstract
Emergency access device for a vehicle opening leaf, including:—a graspable pull rod that is movable between a retracted position and a deployed position;—a retention needle that is movable transversely to the pull rod between a position for blocking the pull rod in its retracted position and a position for releasing the pull rod;—an electric ejector designed to release the pull rod;—a mechanical ejector designed to release the pull rod; the pull rod including an oblique path designed to cause the retention needle to move from its blocking position to its releasing position during a movement of the pull rod in translation.
Claims20
An emergency access device for a vehicle opening leaf, comprising:
- a body;
- a graspable pull rod that is connected to a lock actuator and is movable between:
- a retracted position in which the pull rod is retracted into the body;
- and a deployed position in which the pull rod protrudes from the body;
- an elastic member that urges the pull rod toward the pull rod's its deployed position;
- a retention needle that is movable transversely to the pull rod between a position for blocking the pull rod in the pull rod's retracted position and a position for releasing the pull rod;
- an electric ejector designed to release the pull rod from the retracted position, the electric ejector comprising an electric actuator designed to move the retention needle from the retention needle's blocking position to the retention needle's releasing position;
- a mechanical ejector designed to release the pull rod from the retracted position, the mechanical ejector comprising a slider that is movable between:
- a position for immobilizing the retention needle in the its releasing position;
- and a position for releasing the retention needle;
- the pull rod comprising an oblique path designed to cause the retention needle to move from the its blocking position to the its releasing position during a movement of the pull rod in translation in the body.
