Abstract
An operating device comprises a base member, an operating member, a piston, and a coupling structure. The base member includes a cylinder bore having a cylinder center axis. The operating member is movable relative to the base member between a rest position and an operated position. The piston is movably provided in the cylinder bore and is coupled to the operating member to be pulled in a pulling direction in response to a pulling movement of the operating member from the rest position to the operated position. The operating member includes a cam surface including a curved surface. The base member includes a guide groove linearly extending in the pulling direction. The coupling structure includes a follower configured to be in contact with the cam surface to receive the pulling movement, and a guided part movably provided in the guide groove to move the follower in the pulling direction.
