Patent attributes
A door handle assembly for a vehicle door includes a handle which is to be actuated by an operator, a lever element which supports the handle on a handle housing, and a motor-driven actuating element. The handle is designed to be movable out of an actuation position into a servo-opening position by being actuated by an operator. A detection means is formed on the handle housing in order to detect a movement of the handle out of the actuation position into the servo-opening position so as to produce a movement of the motor-driven actuating element out of the handle extended position into a door opening position. Upon being moved out of the handle extended position into the door opening position, the motor-driven actuating element moves a vehicle door opening lever out of a ready position into an unlocked position, in which the vehicle door can be opened.
