Device for driving a movable member in vehicle

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6974073

A device is described for driving a movable member in a vehicle having a driving motor provided to be rotated in a predetermined direction and a reduction gear train for decelerating the rotating motion of the driving motor. It also has transmitting means for transmitting the rotating motion to an output shaft to be coupled with the driven member, and a casing for enclosing the driving motor and the transmitting means. The device comprises: two adjacent gears in the reduction gear train being arranged rotatable with respect to the casing and coaxially with each other, first gear of the gears being coupled with a gear of front stage disposed at the driving motor side, second gear of the gears being coupled with a gear of next stage disposed at the output shaft side, the second gear arranged axially movably with respect to the first gear. A coupling means is arranged to integrally rotate the both gears for coupling the second gear with the first gear and a manual rotating means is arranged in relation the the second gear for axially moving the second gear with respect to the first gear to disengaged the coupling of the gears, and for providing a rotational force to the second gear.
