Abstract

An actuator unit for a vehicle door locking device comprises a reversible motor, a gear shaft set to an output shaft of the motor, a rotational output member which rotates by engaging with the gear shaft, a driven lever which is changed in at least two positions in accordance with the rotation of the output member, and a housing for storing the above components. The housing is constituted with a main case and a sub case. A first recess for storing the rotational output member, a second recess for storing the motor, a third recess for storing the gear shaft and support means for supporting a rotating shaft of the driven lever are formed on the main case. The output member fitted in the first recess and the gear shaft fitted in the third recess are constituted so that they maintain a meshing state mutually, and each component in the main case is secured at its home position by putting the sub case on the main case.
