Abstract: An automatic door operator includes a lead screw having a first end connected to an output end of an actuating unit and a second end extending away from the output end. A lead screw nut is attached to the lead screw. A slider is attached to the lead screw nut. The slider is provided with a rack portion extending in a direction parallel to an axial direction of the lead screw, and during a movement of the lead screw nut, a length of an overlap of the rack portion and the lead screw in the axial direction varies. The operator includes a housing having a guide hole configured to be slidably engaged with the slider and an output shaft is mounted in a mounting hole disposed on the housing. The output shaft has a gear portion positioned in the guide hole and engaged with the rack portion.

Abstract: When a fuel lid goes from an open state to a closed state and a pressed state and then returns to the closed state, a contact/non-contact switching mechanism switches a signal outputted from a microswitch from an ON signal to an OFF signal by performing a first operation. When the fuel lid goes from the closed state to the pressed state and then returns to the closed state, the contact/non-contact switching mechanism switches the signal outputted from the microswitch from the OFF signal to the ON signal and the OFF signal in that order by performing a second operation. Under a condition at least of the signal outputted from the microswitch switching from the OFF signal to the ON signal and the OFF signal in that order within a prescribed time, a control unit controls a lifter to rotate to another side around an axis line.
