Abstract
To provide a power window apparatus which can reliably actuate an anti-pinching mechanism even in a window provided with a side visor, a cord switch operable in response to a specific external force is mounted in a joining part of a side visor between a window frame and the side visor. The cord switch senses the external force acting on the side visor, reliably detecting a foreign object pinched between a window glass and the side visor.
