Abstract:
A grille shutter device opens and closes an introduction passage through which air is introduced from an opening provided at a front part of a vehicle to the inside of the vehicle. The grille shutter device includes: a driving fin and a driven fin that are configured to rotate between an open position in which the introduction passage is open and a closed position in which the introduction passage is closed; an actuator configured to drive the driving fin; a power transmission member configured to transmit power from the driving fin to the driven fin; and a first stopper configured to define a first position by coming into contact with the power transmission member.
