Abstract
A door latch actuator comprises a reversible motor, a rotating object, a drive portion and an actuating member. The drive portion comprises two locking/unlocking drive projections and stopping projections. The actuating member comprises a pair of driven portions. When the drive portion is rotated in one direction, one of the locking/unlocking drive projections comes in contact with one of the driven portions to move the actuating member to a lock position. When the actuating member is moved to the lock position, the locking/unlocking drive projection leaves a recess, and the stopping projection comes in contact with the actuating member to stop rotation of the drive portion. When the drive portion rotates in an opposite direction, the other locking/unlocking drive projection comes in contact with the other driven portion, so that the actuating member is moved toward an unlock position. When the actuating member is moved to the unlock position, the other locking/unlocking drive projection leaves the recess, and the stopping projection comes in contact with the actuating member thereby stopping rotation of the drive portion.
