Claims7
A door actuating device for an air conditioner of a vehicle having doors installed at an inside of an air conditioning case, a heater core and an evaporator built in the air conditioning case, so as to open/close a flow path according to user-chosen temperature and mode, at least two doors of the doors inside the air conditioning case being interlocked to be operated,
- the devices comprising:
- a plurality of rotating members connected to each door shaft of the doors;
- a link member having one end portion connected to one of the rotating members and another end portion connected to another rotating member such that the rotating members are interlocked, wherein at least one of the rotating members defines a link engaging hole;
- an interlocking member defining a slot and superposedly installed and interlocked with the at least one rotating member defining the link engaging hole;
- and
- a link separation preventing member integrated with the at least one rotating member defining the link engaging hole;
- wherein one of the link member end portions is inserted in the link en hole of the at least one of the rotating members, the inserted one end portion of the link member protruding a predetermined length from the link engaging hole and being inserted into the slot of the interlocking member, so as to operate the interlocking member together with the rotating member, and
- wherein the link separation preventing member supports the link member so that the inserted one end portion of the link member is not separated from the rotating member.
