Abstract
A drive unit includes a motor disposed in a motor case, a controller, disposed in a controller case, and a lever. The lever includes a supported portion that is fitted on a support of the controller case in a rotatable manner, a first action point at a first distance from the supported portion, and a second action point at a second distance from the supported portion. When the lever rotates from a close state toward an open state according to an application of a first force to the first action point, the second action point abuts on a specific part on the motor case, thereby generating a second force from the second action point to the specific part in a parallel direction of the axis of the motor case, with its reaction force reversely applied from the supported portion to the support as a third force.
