CLOSURE SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

A vehicle includes a first member and a second member moveable relative to the first member. A compliant member is compressible between the first member and the second member. A compression control device is attached to one of the first member and the second member for engaging another of the first member and the second member, or the compliant member. The compression control device is moveable between a first position and a second position. When disposed in the first position, the compression control device is not engaged with the first member, the second member, or the compliant member, and allows compression of the compliant member into a first compressive state. When disposed in the second position, the compression control device is engaged with one of the first member, the second member, or the compliant member, and is operable to compress the compliant member into a second compressive state.

主权项

1. A closure system for a vehicle, the closure system comprising:
a first member; a second member moveable relative to the first member; a compliant member attached to one of the first member and the second member, and compressible between the first member and the second member; a latch system operable to selectively latch the second member and the first member together; a compression control device attached to one of the first member and the second member and operable to engage another of the first member and the second member, or the compliant member; wherein the compression control device is moveable between a first position operable to allow compression of the compliant member into a first compressive state, and a second position operable to allow compression of the compliant member into a second compressive state when the first member and the second member are latched together by the latch system.
