Abstract
In a manipulation assisting control apparatus, a manipulation assistance controller causes a switch unit to be in an on-state and which executes control of a motor drive circuit to apply an assisting force, in a case where a manipulation target object is moved in a predetermined direction. A first stop controller causes the switch unit to be in an off-state and stops the control of the motor drive circuit, in a case where the manipulation target object moved in the predetermined direction stops at an end position. A second stop controller causes the switch unit to be in the on-state and stops the control of the motor drive circuit, in a case where the manipulation target object moved in the predetermined direction stops at an intermediate position or in a case where the manipulation target object moves in a direction opposite to the predetermined direction.
