    摘要: Provided is a sliding door drive device enabling suppression of bulging against a body panel being a fixing target. The sliding door drive device includes a long guide frame, a first driven pulley and a second driven pulley being supported at both ends of the guide frame in a longitudinal direction, respectively, a belt being wrapped around the first driven pulley and the second driven pulley, and a belt drive part driving the belt. The guide frame includes a guide wall guiding the belt between the first driven pulley and the second driven pulley. The sliding door drive device further includes a sliding plate being placed at a position sandwiching the belt with an inner side of a curved part of the guide wall, and sliding on the driven belt.

    摘要: An opening and closing body drive device for a vehicle includes a belt frame, plural driven pulleys, a belt wounded around the plural driven pulleys and fixed with a connector with respect to an opening and closing body, a drive unit provided with an output shaft including a rotary axis which extends in a different direction from a rotary axis of each of the plural driven pulleys, and a drive pulley connected to the output shaft of the drive unit. The drive pulley includes a rotary axis extending in the different direction from the rotary axis of each of the plural driven pulleys while extending in the same direction as the rotary axis of the output shaft. The drive pulley is wound with the belt which is twisted between the driven pulleys arranged at opposing sides of the drive pulley in a circumferential direction of the belt.

    摘要: A step device for a vehicle includes: a movable step supported under a door opening; a coupling member that moves the movable step in a vehicle width direction in conjunction with opening and closing of a sliding door; and a sub-step that is disposed under the door opening. The movable step moves under the sub-step toward an outer side in the vehicle width direction so as to be disposed in a deployed position in which the movable step protrudes from the sub-step toward the outer side in the vehicle width direction. The sub-step has an overlapping region that covers an upper side of the movable step in a state where the movable step is disposed in the deployed position.
