- DE1020131 12706 and DE102008030580 disclose retractable vehicle door handles.
- WO2012 / 021782 A2 discloses a vehicle door handle. In the retracted position, the handle is flush with the outer surface of the door. It is driven by a motor between stowed position and an output position where a user can manipulate it to open the corresponding door.
- a drive mechanism connects the handle to the motor.
- the mechanism includes a connecting rod and a spring. This compresses when the motor causes the handle to deploy, but the handle remains locked in the retracted position. This arrangement offers the advantage of not damaging the engine of the vehicle despite the blockage.
- the object of the invention is to solve at least one of the problems posed by the prior art.
- the invention also aims to improve safety a motorized handle for opening. Moreover, the invention aims at a simple and compact solution.

- the set includes two pivots; including a fixed pivot and a movable pivot offset relative to the fixed pivot.
- the one-way coupling system includes a freewheel mechanism.
- the assembly comprises a first rod integral with the handle, and a second rod engaged with the actuator, the coupling system joining the first rod to the second rod.
- the actuator is a rotary actuator or a linear actuator.
- the handle comprises a first lever, and the actuator comprises a second lever, the coupling system being at the interface between said levers.
- the damping means are energy dissipation.
- the opening command is an external command.
- the handle is a swivel handle.
- the actuator is able to rotate the handle by at least 10 °, or at least 25 °, or at least 45 °.
- the handle is movable to an unlocking position, including unlocking the door; the deployed position being between the unlocking position and the retracted position.
- the system comprises a housing in which are arranged the damping means and locking elements in rotation.
- the housing forms a ring around the junction between the first rod and the second rod.
- the assembly comprises at least one pivot remote from the actuator, optionally in connection with the handle.
- the linear actuator comprises a rack driving the coupling system.
- the second rod comprises a pinion driven by the actuator, possibly by the rack.

The position of the handle is decoupled from the configuration of the actuator. The latter can become simpler, more economical; just like its control circuit.
- the retraction torque of the handle becomes less than the opening torque due to the one-way coupling system.
- the retraction movement of the handle may be slower, softer than the deployment one. This removes the anxiety effect despite rapid deployment.
- the decoupling makes it possible to pull more the handle to unlock the opening; without acting against the actuator.
- the invention maintains the hold between the actuator and the handle, so that the actuator manages to open the handle even if the handle is slightly blocked.
- the invention provides a compact assembly.
- the transmission system and the damping means can be integrated in a ring forming a connection between the rods. In parallel, reliability and mass are optimized. In addition ; assembly, control, and supply costs are decreasing.
- Figure 1 shows an opening with a handle according to the invention.
- Figure 2 shows a sectional view of the opening and the handle along an axis 2-2 plotted in Figure 1.
- Figure 3 illustrates an assembly for open sash control according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 4 is a front view of an opening opening control assembly according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 5 is a top view of the pivoting handle according to the second embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 1 shows an opening 1 provided with a pivoting handle 4.
