A locking lever in this locking device has a first fan-shaped gear portion. The actuator has a motor, reduction gears, a one-way clutch and an output shaft which are supported on a frame. The actuator is set on a mounting portion of a device body and thereafter sealed with a case. The output shaft is provided in parallel with a central shaft of the locking lever, and extends through the case to project beyond the rear surface of the device body. A second fan-shaped gear portion meshed with the first fan-shaped gear portion is mounted fixedly on this projecting portion of the output shaft.
