Abstract:
1. Motor vehicle lock comprising: a latch that is swivelable around a swivelling axis and moveable into an open position and at least into a main locked position; and a ratchet arrangement movable into at least one holding position and into a release position, and the ratchet arrangement keeping the latch in the main locked position when in the at least one holding position, the ratchet arrangement further including, ratchet kinematics, wherein the ratchet kinematics is moved by resetting the latch out of the main locked position in the direction of the open position; and and adjustable blocking element that blocks movement of the ratchet kinematics when the ratchet arrangement is in the at least one holding position, thereby blocking the resetting of the latch, wherein the ratchet kinematics further comprises a transmission lever that is swivelable around a second swivelling axis, wherein by swivelling the latch out of the main locked position in the direction of the open position, the transmission lever can be moved and, when the ratchet arrangement is in the at least one holding position, the blocking element blocks the transmission lever, wherein the transmission lever is coupled to the latch, and wherein an intermediate lever couples the transmission lever and the latch and, wherein the intermediate lever is pivotally coupled to the latch and to the transmission lever and, is coupled eccentrically with regard to the respective swivelling axis of the latch.
