ABSTRACT:
A final closing device for a closure member on a vehicle is disclosed. The closure member, which may be swingably, slidably or otherwise mounted for movement between open and closed positions on a vehicle body member, includes a latch bolt movable between latched and unlatched positions. The final closing device includes a striker support plate mounted on the body member for rotational movement about an axis perpendicular to such plate, a striker carried by the striker support plate and projecting therefrom at a position eccentrically offset from the axis, means carried by the body member and connected to the striker support plate for rotating the striker support plate, and means coupled to the rotating means and constructed and arranged to preclude reverse rotation of the striker plate for preventing unintended opening of the closure member when high opening forces are applied thereto. The striker is movable between extended and retracted positions upon unidirectional rotation of the striker support plate so that when the striker is engaged by the latch bolt and the striker support plate is rotated, the closure member is moved between a partially open position, away from the body member, and a fully closed position, in sealing engagement therewith.
