PCT No. PCT/DE97/01260 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 8, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 8, 1999 PCT Filed Jun. 19, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/05840 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 12, 1998A motor vehicle door lock or the like including a housing with a detent pawl including a lock catch, a dynamic actuation linkage extending from an outside door handle and an inside door handle to the detent pawl, and a controller including a control disk with a plurality of peripherally located control cams, each of the control cams corresponding to a respective one of a plurality of functional positions including "locked", "unlocked", and optionally, "theft-proof" and "child-proof" positions. The lock also includes actuating elements in a control segment of the dynamic actuation linkage which is disengaged unless it is made engaged by coupling of the actuating elements by the action of one of the various control cams on the control disk. Thus, in the "locked" position, the dynamic actuation linkage to the outside door handle is disengaged so that the motor vehicle door cannot be opened by the outside door handle but the dynamic actuation linkage to the inside door handle is engaged so that the motor vehicle door can be opened by the inside door handle, and in the "unlocked" position, the dynamic actuation linkage is engaged to both the outside and inside door handles so that the motor vehicle door can be opened by both door handles. In the "theft-proof" position, the dynamic actuation linkage is disengaged to both the outside door handle and the inside handle so that the motor vehicle door cannot be opened by either door handle, and in the "child-proof" position, the dynamic actuation linkage to the inside door handle is disengaged so that the motor vehicle door cannot be opened by the inside door handle but the dynamic actuation linkage to the outside door handle is engaged so that the motor vehicle door can be opened by the outside door handle.
