  In the present embodiment, a stop switch 39 is provided on the inner wall 212 of the grip portion 21 instead of the latch release switch 36 in the third embodiment. The stop switch 39 has a function of stopping the opening operation of the door by the automatic door operation mechanism 38. When the stop switch 39 is pressed, the automatic door mechanism 38 is in a state where the automatic door opening operation switch 37 is pressed. The door opening operation by is stopped. Therefore, the user can depress the stop switch 39 by moving the grip portion 21 of the door grip to stop the opening operation of the automatic door. Therefore, when an obstacle appears outside the door and the user thinks that the opening operation of the automatic door is to be stopped, the user can move the grip portion 21 even if the automatic door opening operation switch 37 is held down. The opening operation of the automatic door can be stopped intuitively. It should be noted that the movement direction of the grip portion 21 is set to the vehicle interior direction, so that an operation in accordance with human sensitivity can be performed.

  In the present embodiment, the function of operating the fixing means 30, the function of releasing the lock of the door latch, and the function of operating the automatic door are associated with one automatic door opening operation switch 37. It can also be associated with a switch. Further, the automatic door operation mechanism is not limited to the configuration in which the door is opened only while the automatic door opening operation switch 37 is pressed, and may be configured to open the door all at once when the automatic door opening operation switch 37 is pressed. Furthermore, the means for stopping the door opening operation by the automatic door operation mechanism 38 is not limited to the stop switch 37 in the present embodiment. For example, it is understood that the same function can be achieved by coupling a wire coupled to the automatic door operation mechanism to the grip portion 21 of the door grip.

  As a modification of the fourth embodiment, instead of the stop switch 39, an automatic door closing operation switch 40 having an automatic door closing operation function for causing the automatic door operating mechanism 38 to perform an automatic door closing operation may be provided. In this case, the automatic door closing operation switch 40 is also provided on the inner wall 212 of the grip portion 21, similarly to the door latch release switch 36 and the stop switch 39. FIG. 8 is a block diagram of the actuator 31, the control unit 34, and the like in the modified example. In the modified example, an automatic door closing operation switch 40 is connected to the control unit 34 instead of the stop switch 39, and the control unit 34 is configured to operate based on a signal from the automatic door closing operation switch 40. ing. When the automatic door closing operation switch 40 is pressed, the control unit 34 drives the automatic door operation mechanism 38, and while the control unit 34 receives a signal from the automatic door closing operation switch 40, the automatic door operation mechanism 38 closes the door. Let it be done. Thereby, since the automatic door closing operation switch 40 is pressed as described above while the user moves the grip portion 21, the user can automatically close the door. Further, the present invention is not limited to the configuration in which the door closing operation is performed only while the automatic door closing operation switch 40 is pressed, and the automatic door operating mechanism 38 may be configured to close the door at a time when the switch 40 is pressed. A switch for stopping the closing operation by the automatic door operation mechanism 38 can be provided on the door trim 10 or the door grip. Further, for example, it is understood that the same function can be achieved by coupling a wire coupled to the automatic door operation mechanism 38 to the grip portion 21 without using the switch 40.
