ABSTRACT:
A motor-vehicle door latch has an element displaceable between a locked position and an unlocked position and a bowden cable has one end connected to the element and an opposite end. A latch-actuating assembly has a housing, a main lever pivoted on the housing about a main axis between an actuated position and an unactuated position and formed offset from the main axis with an entrainment formation, and a secondary lever pivoted about a secondary axis and having an attachment point offset from both axes and connected to the bowden cable. Thus the secondary lever pivots about the secondary axis relative to the main lever synchronously with the element between locked and unlocked positions. The secondary lever is formed with an entrainment formation engageable in the unlocked position with the main-lever entrainment formation on movement of the main lever from the unactuated into the actuated position and is unengageable in the locked position with the main-lever entrainment formation on movement of the main lever from the unactuated to the actuated position. The secondary axis is on the main lever and is offset from the main axis.
