<p>A latch release system for releasing a latch, the system having a rest position and an actuated position and requiring a first force to move the system from the rest position to the actuated position. The system includes an inertia event sensor, wherein when the inertia event sensor detects an inertia event it activates means that increases the force required to actuate the system so the system requires a second force, greater than the first force, to move the system to the actuated position. The means may be resilient construction, for example a spring, or it may be a magnet. The system may have a third position, between the rest and intermediate position where the latch release system requires a second force to move the latch from the rest to intermediate position and a third force to move the latch from the intermediate to actuated position.</p> |
