Abstract
A door handle device for a vehicle includes a frame member, an outside handle and a seal member. The frame member includes a frame-side stopper. The outside handle includes a handle shaft portion and an engagement leg portion. The handle shaft portion is mounted to the frame member. The seal member includes a body portion sealing the outside handle and the door outer panel, the seal member including an extending portion extending from the body portion to a first region where the frame-side stopper and the handle-side stopper face with each other. The extending portion includes a first buffer piece. The frame-side stopper receives an impact generated in response to a pivot of the outside handle about the handle shaft portion to the full stroke position via the first buffer piece of the extending portion of the seal member, the first buffer piece being positioned at the first region.
