Abstract

A method for controlling a blocking component for a latch of a closure panel of a vehicle, the latch having latch components including a ratchet and pawl, the method comprising: determining whether an occupant is in the vehicle and whether a speed of the vehicle is above a first threshold; and blocking release of the latch by positioning the blocking component whenever the occupant is in the vehicle and the speed is above the first threshold, automatically without occupant intervention, into a blocking position adjacent to at least one of the latch components to restrict movement of the at least one of the latch components which movement would cause the latch to open, wherein the blocking position is adjacent either the ratchet or the pawl, and restricts movement of the ratchet or pawl, respectively.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority and benefit from the filing dates of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 794,542, filed March 15, 2013, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 818,899, filed May 2, 2013, and these applications The entire content of is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to latch operation of a vehicle closure panel for occupant entry and exit relative to the vehicle interior. Background technique [0004] It is known to configure vehicle door latches to inhibit opening of the vehicle doors in the event of a vehicle crash, thereby inhibiting or limiting ejection of vehicle occupants from the vehicle. Some mounting systems for latches that provide this feature do so through an inertial member that oscillates to a selected position due to predetermined accelerations that occur during the crash event itself, thereby inhibiting the Undes...
