A power-operated vehicle door locking assembly including separate inner and outer door locking mechanisms connected with a housing assembly and an electric motorized system operable to selectively move (1) the inner door locking mechanism between an inoperative and an inner door locking position in response to inner manual electric motor energizing actuations and (2) the outer door locking mechanism between an inoperative and an outer door locking positions in response to outer manual electric motor energizing actuations. The arrangement is such that an outer manual electric motor energizing actuation without a corresponding inner manual electric motor energizing actuation causes a door latching assembly when in a door latching position to be incapable of being moved into a door unlatching position by an outer door latch releasing mechanism while at the same time the door latching assembly is capable of being moved into the door unlatching position thereof by an inner door latch releasing mechanism.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A power-operated vehicle door locking assembly comprising:a housing assembly constructed and arranged to be mounted to a vehicle door,a door latching assembly carried by said housing assembly constructed and arranged to be moved between a door latching position and a door unlatching position,said door latching assembly includes a holding and releasing lever movable between a holding position wherein said lever prevents said door latching assembly from moving from said door latching position thereof and a releasing position wherein said lever permits said door latching assembly to move from said door latching position thereof to said unlatching position thereof,an outer door latch releasing mechanism including an outer releasing arm movably mounted and biased to engage with said lever,an outer reversible electric motor,an inner door latch releasing mechanism including an inner releasing arm movably mounted and biased to engage with said lever,an inner reversible electric motor, andseparate inner and outer door locking mechanisms characterized bysaid outer door locking mechanism having an outer cam movable between unlocked and locked positions, responsively moving said outer releasing arminto engagement with said lever thereby enabling said outer door latch releasing mechanism to responsively effect movement of said lever to said releasing position, andout of engagement with said lever thereby disabling said outer door latch releasing mechanism, andsaid inner door locking mechanism having an inner cam movable between unlocked and locked positions, responsively moving said inner releasing arminto engagement with said lever thereby enabling said inner door latch releasing mechanism to responsively effect movement of said lever to said releasing position, andout of engagement with said lever thereby disabling said inner door latch releasing mechanism,said outer reversible electric motor cooperating with said outer cam to effect said movement thereof in response to an outer manual electrical energizing actuation, andsaid inner reversible electric motor cooperating with said inner cam to effect said movement thereof in response to an inner manual electrical energizing actuation.
