Vehicle Door Actuating Apparatus with a Large Actuating Surface
Described is a vehicle door actuating apparatus (100). The vehicle door actuating apparatus (100) includes an actuating surface (106), a sensor (140), such as an inductive sensor or switch, and a mechanism for transmitting a compressive force applied by a user to the actuating surface (106) into a movement that is detectable by the sensor. The mechanism includes a first component (111) or a first component group on which the switch (140) is at least partially fixed and a transmission element (120) that is pivotally arranged on the first component (111) or the first component group. The transmission element (120) is pivotable between a home position in which the sensor (140) is not triggered by the transmission element (120) and an actuating position in which the sensor (140) is triggered by the transmission element (120). The transmission element (120) is movable relative to the actuating apparatus (102). The vehicle door actuating apparatus (100) includes a plurality of actuating elements (158a, 158b, 158c, 158d, 158e) arranged in relation to the transmission element (120) such that a movement of at least one of the actuating elements (158a, 158b, 158c, 158d, 158e) relative to the transmission element (120) is sufficient in order to transfer the transmission element (120) from its home position into its actuating position.
