An electric locking device for an operable/closable member attached to an opening portion, includes a biasing member which biases a pair of rods in a direction in which the rods are brought into engagement with a pair of locking portions, an actuator for sliding the rods to disengage from the locking portions, the actuator having a case having an opening portion, a motor disposed within the case, a worm rotated by the motor and a worm wheel supported rotatably on the case and interlocked with the worm for rotation. The worm wheel has a rotating portion projecting outwards of the case from the opening portion, and proximal end portions of the rods are assembled individually to the rotating portion so as to move in an associated fashion, causing the rods to slide in a synchronized fashion in opposite directions to each other.
