Abstract
Left and right actuators (14) for a vehicle are provided that include a first housing (31) and a second housing (32) connected in a direction of an axis (L), a coupling flange (31a) of the first housing (31) and a coupling flange (32a) of the second housing (32) being connected by a plurality of bolts (35) disposed at equal intervals on a circumference having the axis (L) as the center, and since a component mounting part via which a stroke sensor (102) is mounted on the second housing (32) is provided at an intermediate position between two bolts (35) of the plurality of bolts (35) or at a position of any one bolt (35), the stroke sensors (102) of the left and right actuators (14) can be disposed at positions that are mirror-symmetric relative to a central plane (P) of a vehicle body while reducing the number of components by using in common for each of the left and right actuators (14) the second housing (32) on which the stroke sensor (102) is mounted.
