A drive rotor has a coupled portion to which a coupling portion extending from a rotary shaft is loosely fitted. A driven rotor can be engaged with the drive rotor with respect to a rotating direction of the drive rotor. A restricting member is fixed to the rotary shaft so as to be integrally rotatable. In the case that the drive rotor is inclined with respect to the rotary shaft, the restricting member can be brought into contact with the drive rotor. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress an excessive looseness in a coupling mechanism.

Motor apparatus

In a motor device for vehicles, a brush holder is interposed between a motor yoke housing and a reduction gear unit housing has a holder body and a connector unit integrally formed with each other. The connector unit holds therein connector terminals having base ends connected to brushes. A sealing cover is molded integrally on the holder body and the base ends of the connector terminals. The sealing cover seals insides of the yoke housing and the gear housing water-tightly from the outside. The sealing cover is preferably made of rubber, elastomer or adhesive resin, and formed with the brush holder by two-color molding. The sealing cover has a cylindrical cover part extending from the connector unit, and the motor device is mounted in a vehicle door with the cylindrical cover part being attached to the vehicle door for electrical connection with an external power source.
