Door lever for controlling a door opening and closing apparatus
First Claim
1. An opening and closing control apparatus for a door, comprising:
- a driving unit operable to electronically move the door between an open position and a closed position in response to an operating request;
a door lever positioned on the door, said door lever movable in a first direction from a neutral position of the door lever to a first position wherein the door lever contacts an operation output unit, and said door lever movable in a second direction from the neutral position of the door lever to a second position wherein the door lever releases the door from a latch to allow manual movement of the door between the open position and the closed position without activating the driving unit;
the operation output unit positioned proximate the door lever and outputs an operating signal when the door lever is moved to the first position and contacts the operation output unit; and
a controller outputs the operating request for one of an electronic door movement operation to the open position and an electronic door movement operation to the closed position based on the operating signal.

Abstract
An opening and closing control apparatus includes an automatic sliding door controller that controls a drive of an opening and closing driving mechanism. The automatic sliding door controller determines whether a request is a manual operating request or an automatic operating request on the basis of a signal from a press switch that is switched on by a press-on operation. In the case of the automatic operating request, the automatic sliding door controller is configured so that an automatic opening and closing determination process determines whether a request is an opening operating request or a closing operating request based on the detection of door state detection section, and an opening and closing process is then executed by operating the opening and closing driving mechanism based on the determination.
