Abstract
A vehicle pop-up hood device actuator includes a main body section; a cylinder that covers a portion on one axial direction side of the main body section, that is moved toward the one axial direction side of the main body section by generated gas to lift a hood of a vehicle to a lifted position, and that is configured so as to be capable of moving to a retention position; a sealing member that is formed in a ring shape and that forms a seal between the main body section and a general face; a retention member that abuts on an inner peripheral face of the cylinder and retains the cylinder at the retention position; and an enlarged diameter face that is disposed at a radial direction outer side of the main body section with respect to the sealing member at the lifted position.
