Abstract
A lid opening/closing device includes a lid box, a lid, and an opening/closing mechanism. The opening/closing mechanism includes, as a link interposed between the lid box and the lid, a main arm rotatably supported on the lid box at one main arm end portion thereof and an auxiliary arm configured to restrict a posture of the lid during opening/closing of the lid so as to keep the lid in a predetermined posture by rotating in conjunction with rotation of the main arm. The main arm includes an arm-side restriction portion configured to come into contact with a back surface side of the lid at an opened position of the lid to restrict the main arm from rotating to an open side. An axial length of the arm-side restriction portion is longer than an axial length of the one main arm end portion.
