Abstract

A door actuating apparatus includes an engagement mechanism configured to retain a door at a full close position, an operating portion configured to output a signal to open the door, a control unit actuating an actuator by receiving the signal, an engagement member advancing and retracting relative to the door in accordance with rotation of the door, and a door opening mechanism operating by actuation of the actuator, positioning the door at a full close position to a predetermined rotational position by rotating the door in a vehicle exterior direction by biasing the engagement member by engaging with the engagement member when the door is released from an engaged state by the door opening mechanism engaging with the engagement mechanism, and releasing engagement with the engagement member when an external force rotating the door in the vehicle exterior direction is exerted on the door at the predetermined rotational position.
