Lock, especially for the doors, flaps or the like, of motor vehicles
First Claim
1. Lock, especially for the doors, hinged lids, etc., of motor vehicles,with a rotary latch (11), into which a closing part (20) travels when the door, hinged lid, etc., is closed and thus pivots the rotary latch (11) from an open position via a secondary latching position into a primary latching position;
- with a catch (21), which drops into a secondary stop notch (15) provided on the rotary latch (11) to establish the secondary latching position and then drops into a primary stop notch (14) on the rotary latch (11) to establish the primary latching position;
with a motorized auxiliary closing/opening means for the door, comprising a drive unit (29) and a gear assembly (30);
wherein the gear assembly comprises at least two gear wheels (34, 35) and two power takeoff elements (37, 38), wherein one power takeoff element (37) act on the rotary latch (21) and the other power takeoff element acts on the catch (21);
with drive control means for activating and deactivating the auxiliary closing and the auxiliary opening means; and
whereinthe first power takeoff element (37) acts as the auxiliary opening means on the catch (21) in a first operating direction of the drive unit (29); and
the second power takeoff element (38) acts on the rotary latch (11) as the auxiliary closing means in an operating direction of the drive unit (29) opposite the first direction;
where the power takeoff elements (37, 38) are connected to the drive unit (29) at all times, so that the two power takeoff elements (37, 38) are made to move simultaneously when the drive unit (29) is operating,wherein the first power takeoff element (37) is connected so as to rotate with the first gear wheel (34) and the second power takeoff element (38) is connected so as to rotate with the second gear wheel (35);
wherein the first gear wheel (34) is mounted ahead of the second gear wheel (35); and
wherein the gear assembly (30) comprises two axes (33) and (36), the first gear wheel (34) and the first power takeoff element (37) are mounted on the first axis (33), and the second gear wheel (35) and the second power takeoff element (38) are mounted on the second axis (36).

Abstract
A lock especially for the doors, flaps or the like, of motor vehicles. The lock includes a rotating latch (11) into which a closing element (20) is inserted, when the door is closed. The rotating latch (11) is pivoted out of an open position into a main locking position, via a pre-locking position. The lock also comprises a catch (21) which, in the pre-locking position, engages in a pre-stop notch provided on the rotating latch (11), and in the main locking position, engages in the main stop notch (14) positioned on the rotating latch. The lock also includes a motor-driven closing/opening auxiliary unit for the door, having a drive part (29) and a drive device (30) with at least two output elements (37, 38) which act on the rotating latch (11) or the catch (21). The lock further comprises a control for positioning the closing and opening auxiliary unit in an active or passive position, wherein the output elements (37, 38) are continuously coupled to the drive part (29) in such a way that the two output elements (37, 38) are displaced in an isochronous manner when the drive part (29) is switched on.
