[Effect of idea]

A device shown in FIG. 8 is known to achieve the same purpose as the present invention. This is made by bending a half-moon part 61 to form a groove part 63 for guiding a wire 62. However, with the opener configured as described above, when attaching the wire 62 to the cable end clamp section 64, the operator must insert the wire 62 into the groove 63 to prevent the wire 62 from coming off the half-moon section 61 during the attachment process. It is troublesome because the wire 62 must be attached to the cable end clamp part 64 while being held.
The drawback was that it took a long time to work. However, the present invention has a base fixed to the vehicle body,
a lever rotatably held on the base and integrally formed with a half-moon portion and a cable end clamp portion; and a lever fixed to the cable end clamp portion;
A wire is integrally formed with the lever between the half-moon portion and the cable end clamp portion, and a wire that is pushed and pulled when the lever comes into contact with the half-moon portion to open and close the opening/closing body of the vehicle, and the half-moon portion and the cable end clamp portion. Since the opener is configured to include a groove portion for guiding the wire, the wire will not come off from the meniscal portion during the installation work, so that the wire can be easily assembled. Furthermore, while rotating the lever,
This prevents the wire from coming off the meniscus and causing malfunction.
