Original Abstract Submitted

a movable spoiler device includes: a fixed part, fixed on a body of a vehicle; a movable part, configured to be movable between a storage position connected to the fixed part and a deployed position protruding from the fixed part toward rear of the vehicle; an actuator, disposed on the fixed part and drives the movable part to move in a front-rear direction of the vehicle; a link mechanism, connected to the actuator and the movable part, in which the link mechanism includes: a fixed link, rotatably supported on the fixed part with a first axis, and connected to the actuator; a movable link, rotatably supported on the fixed link with a second axis different from the first axis and connected to the movable part. the fixed link is driven to rotate by the actuator, and the movable link drives the movable part to move relative to the fixed part.
