Zusammenfassung:To suppress looseness of a driven member caused by a backlash of a gear for transmitting rotation of a motor to an output shaft of a driving device.SOLUTION: An opening/closing member driving device 3 for driving a toilet lid 2 as a driven member, comprises a motor 12, a gear train mechanism 13 for transmitting rotation of the motor 12 to an output shaft 11, and an assist spring 16 for biasing the output shaft 11. When rotation of the output shaft 11 makes a toilet lid 2 rotate to rise from a fully-closed position 2A to a fully-open position 2B via a rising position which is an almost vertically raised position, and a rotation angle of the output shaft 11 reaches a biasing start position 11E (a position at a rotation angle of 85°) a little smaller than 90°, then the output shaft 11 is switched from the state of a biasing force of the assist spring 16 not acting on the output shaft to the state of that acting thereon. In a rotation range from the biasing start position 11E to reaching of the toilet lid 2 to the fully-open position 2B, a backlash is forcibly controlled to bias the output shaft 11 in a certain direction by the biasing force of the assist spring 16.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10 【課題】駆動装置の出力軸にモータの回転を伝達する歯車のバックラッシに起因する被駆動部材のガタつきを抑制する。【解決手段】被駆動部材として便蓋2を駆動する開閉部材駆動装置3は、モータ12と、モータ12の回転を出力軸11に伝達する輪列機構13と、出力軸11を付勢するアシストばね16を備える。出力軸11の回転により便蓋2を全閉位置2Aから略垂直に起立した起立位置を経由して全開位置2Bまで回転させる際、出力軸11の回転角度が90°よりも手前の付勢開始位置11E(回転角度が85°の位置)に到達すると、出力軸11にアシストばね16の付勢力が作用しない状態から作用する状態に切り換わる。付勢開始位置11Eから便蓋2を全開位置2Bに到達させるまでの回転範囲では、アシストばね16の付勢力により、出力軸11を決まった方向へ付勢して強制的にガタ詰めを行う。【選択図】図10
