Handle device for vehicle

An inside handle device includes a handle case, and a handle lever rotatably supported by the handle case. The handle lever is inserted into the handle case along a rotation axis of the handle lever with respect to the handle case. The handle case includes a case main body into which the handle lever is inserted, and a coming-off prevention member configured to restrict a movement of the handle lever in a direction along the rotation axis and to prevent the handle lever from coming off the case main body. The coming-off prevention member is coupled to the case main body. The coming-off prevention member is configured to be displaceable between an assembling position at which the handle lever is prevented from coming off the case main body and an unfolded position at which the coming-off prevention member is unfolded from the assembling position.

Inside handle device

A door opening/closing device includes an operation handle, a detection unit provided in the operation handle and configured to detect a contact state of a user with the operation handle, a door driving unit configured to open or close a door, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to determine that a first operation involving a direction is a user operation in which a user comes into contact with the operation handle, when the detection unit detects the first operation and a second operation.

The inside handle device is connected to a door latch device fixed to a door via a cable device in which an inner cable is inserted into an outer cable, and is configured to remotely control the door latch device. The handle base is configured to swingably support a handle body. The handle body includes an operation portion capable of being operated from a front surface at one end portion and a cable connection recessed portion opening to a back surface direction at another end portion. The cable holding case includes a cable fixing portion configured to fix one end of the outer cable.

A lever connection body includes a first lever; and a second lever rotating about a rotation center which is different from a rotation center of the first lever. A sliding long hole opened in the first lever and the second lever spaced apart with respect to the sliding long hole, are connected to each other via a rod. A rod holder including an inserting projection portion inserted into the sliding long hole of the first lever is mounted on an end portion of the rod which is a side of the first lever. A rectangular stopper is provided in a distal end portion of the inserting projection portion of the rod holder, the stopper has a short side length to be inserted into the sliding long hole and a long side portion locked to the sliding long hole to regulate withdrawn from the sliding long hole.
