Abstract

A selector mechanism is provided. The mechanism is associated with a swinging arm that attaches a door to a vehicle. The mechanism is configured for selectably coupling a vehicle door and a door pivot to operate the door either as a sliding door or as a hinged door. The mechanism comprises a latch for selectably latching the vehicle door to the swinging arm, the mechanism having a coupling, unlatched state and a decoupling, latched state. In the coupling, unlatched state, the latch partially releases the door from the arm so the mechanism couples the door pivot to the door so that pivoting of the door pivot, with respect to the arm, is transmitted to the door so that the door can operate as a sliding door. In the decoupling, latched state, the latch latches the door to the arm so the mechanism decouples the door pivot from the door so that pivoting of the door pivot, with respect to the arm, is not transmitted to the door when the door operates as a hinging door.
