Abstract
A first member is attached to the distal end of one of two arm sections of a stabilizer. The first member has a cylindrical bore in which a columnar second member is inserted. A pair of coil springs are disposed between the inner peripheral surface of the bore of the first member and the outer peripheral surface of the second member. The coil springs are wound around the second member. The inside diameter of the coil springs in a non-loaded state is smaller than the outside diameter of the second member. The coil springs have a fixed end and a free end each. The respective fixed ends of the coil springs are fixed to the first member, while the free ends are fitted with an operating member. The operating member is driven by drive including a solenoid. The drive applies a force to the operating member in a direction such that the diameter of each coil spring is increased.
