First Claim
Patent Images
1. A vehicle door latch operation control device comprising:
- a latch release actuator driving a latch mechanism which holds the door relative to a vehicle body so as to allow the door to be opened;
trigger means for alternatively turning on and off the latch release actuator; and
a controller controlling operation of the latch release actuator based on an operation signal issued from the trigger means, the controller being provided with a lock/unlock setting portion which establishes a lock state and an unlock state at each of an inside and an outside of the vehicle body independently.

Abstract
To expand the versatility of the design specification for a vehicle door, a vehicle door latch operation control device includes a controller which operates a latch release actuator to allow the door to open. The controller has a lock/unlock setting portion which sets an unlock state and a lock state for allowing the latch release actuator to operate and prohibiting the latch release actuator from operating in such a manner that establishing the unlock and lock states at the inside of a vehicle is made independent of establishing the unlock and lock states outside the vehicle.

3. A vehicle door latch operation control device comprising:
-
a latch release actuator operable to drive a latch mechanism which holds a door of a vehicle relative to a body of the vehicle to move the latch mechanism to a position allowing the door to be opened;
means issuing an operation signal to turn the latch release actuator on or off;
a driving circuit for operating the latch release actuator; and
a controller controlling the driving circuit to operate the latch release actuator based on the operation signal issued from said means to establish a lock state and an unlock state at an inside of the vehicle while also independently establishing the lock state and the unlock state at an outside of the vehicle - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7)
