Abstract
A power transmitting apparatus for performing switching between 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive modes and locking and unlocking of differential mechanism by an operational shaft can include a driving device comprising a reversible motor, a rotational member rotationally driven by the motor and provided with a contacting member. A spring can be arranged on the rotational member, a connecting member can be arranged to be abutted by one end of the spring so as to be rotated by the rotational member via the coil spring, and a driving shaft can be rotatably arranged relative to the rotational member and engaged by the operational shaft in its rotational direction and adapted to be rotated by the rotational member via the connecting member. A stay can be engaged by the driving shaft in its rotational direction and provided with a contacting member. A substrate can be arranged so as to be contacted by the contacting members respectively of the rotational member and the stay and formed with a conducting patterns forming predetermined electric circuits in accordance with the rotational angles respectively of the rotational member and the driving shaft. The rotational member, connecting member, stay and substrate can be formed as separate parts and adapted to be assembled to the driving shaft in order.
