A retractable door handle assembly having a handle (6, fig. 2) movable between a stowed state, in which the handle lies flush with the outer surface of a door into which it is mounted, a deployed state, in which the handle protrudes from said surface, and an operative state in which the handle operates a latch associated with said door, the assembly having a latch release actuator, preferably cam 36, moveable by the handle preferably through pin 51 and lever 50, the actuator having a lost motion sub range corresponding to movement of the handle between deployed and stowed states in which the actuator does not release said latch, and an active sub range corresponding to movement of the handle between deployed and operative states in which the latch release actuator releases said latch. The actuator may comprise a slot 52 that allows a nipple 56, attached to a Bowden cable 38, to slide relative to the actuator over the lost motion range. Also claimed are a door and a vehicle having the assembly. |
