Abstract
A door handle apparatus includes: a handle body; a driven member; and a driving mechanism configured such that in a state where the driven member is at a first driving position, the handle body is positioned at a first handle position, and rotated to a second handle position by the driven member driven to a second driving position, and in a state where the driven member is at the second driving position, the handle body is rotatable or unrotatable from the second handle position in a first direction when subjected to a force in the first direction, and rotatable from the second handle position to a second direction opposite to the first direction when subjected to a force in the second direction, and the handle body is urged in the direction of being restored to the second handle position when rotating from the second handle position by the external force.
