FREEWHEELING INERTIA MECHANISM FOR CLOSURE LATCH ASSEMBLY
A closure latch assembly for automotive closure systems includes a latch mechanism, a latch release mechanism, a handle-actuated release mechanism, and an inertia-activated bypass mechanism disposed between the handle-actuated release mechanism and the latch release mechanism. The inertia-activated bypass mechanism is operable in a coupled mode for drivingly connecting the two mechanisms so as to permit the latch release mechanism to actuate the latch mechanism and is further operable in an uncoupled mode for disconnecting the two mechanisms so as to inhibit operation of the latch release mechanism. An inertia force above a predetermined acceleration threshold applied to a coupling component of the bypass mechanism causes shifting from the coupled mode into the uncoupled mode, thereby inhibiting unintended release of the latch mechanism.
