    摘要: Vehicle door latch apparatus has; latch that engages strike and that rotates from an unlatched position to a full-latch over rotating position; ratchet member that is rotatably supported by ratchet shaft, wherein ratchet member has pawl portion that is movable between a latch engaging position, where pawl portion can face full-latching engaging portion of latch, and a latch releasing position, where pawl portion is not engaged with full-latching engaging portion; and ratchet restrainer that is positioned on a side of ratchet member and that restrains ratchet member. Ratchet member is configured to be pushed out from latch engaging position to a latch releasing position by release component force F2 that acts on ratchet member in a latch releasing direction, wherein release component force F2 is generated when latch returning force that acts on latch is applied to ratchet member at the latch engaging position.

    摘要: A vehicle door latch apparatus has latch mechanism, powered release means, manual release means and lock mechanism that is switched between a locked state and an unlocked state. Powered release means has cam wheel that is rotated in normal and in reverse rotational directions from a reference position by motor power. When cam wheel is rotated in the normal rotational direction from the reference position, latch mechanism is released while lock mechanism is held in the locked state When cam wheel is rotated in the reverse rotational direction from the reference position, cam wheel switches lock mechanism to the unlocked state. Cam wheel returns lock mechanism to the locked state when cam wheel is rotated in the normal rotational direction back to the reference position in the unlocked state.
