The operating handle 20 is supported so as to be swingable with respect to the handle base 10 with the engagement point of the first engagement portion 25 on the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10 as a fulcrum. The operating handle 20 has a key hole portion 27 on the other end side, and the cylinder lock 30 can be operated by a key inserted into the key hole portion 27.

[0033] The cylinder lock 30 is fixed to the second support portion 14 of the handle base 10 fixed to the door panel 1. The cylinder lock 30 is fixed by screws in a state where it is fitted into the second support hole 13 of the second support portion 14 from the outside of the door panel 1. The cylinder lock 30 is disposed on the vehicle rear BC side of the insertion position of the second engagement portion 26 of the operating handle 20 in the second support hole 13.

[0034] The first gasket 40 and the second gasket 50 are attached to the door panel 1. The first gasket 40 and the second gasket 50 are made of an elastic resin material such as polypropylene or synthetic rubber. The first gasket 40 is formed in an annular shape along the edge of the first opening 2 of the door panel 1, and is attached to the door panel 1 along the edge of the first opening 2. The first gasket 40 is disposed between the door panel 1 and the first mounting portion 21 of the operating handle 20 assembled to the handle base 10. The second gasket 50 is formed in an annular shape along the edge of the second opening 3 of the door panel 1, and is attached to the door panel 1 along the edge of the second opening 3. The second gasket 50 is disposed between the door panel 1 and the second mounting portion 22 of the operating handle 20 assembled to the handle base 10.

[0035] The cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30 from the outside of the door panel 1. The cylinder cover 60 is formed from, for example, a synthetic resin such as plastic. The cylinder cover 60 is attached so as to cover the periphery of the cylinder lock 30. The outsides of the cylinder cover 60 and the cylinder lock 30 are covered by the second mounting portion 22 of the operating handle 20. In other words, the handle device 100 is a seamless type in which an escutcheon portion that overlaps and covers the cylinder lock 30 on the operating handle 20 is provided integrally.

[0036] In the handle device 100 having the above structure, the operating handle 20 can be swung around the engaging point of the first engaging portion 25 with the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10 as a fulcrum. As a result, the operating handle 20 is swung between an initial position (position in FIG. 1) along the door panel 1 and an operating position where the rear end is separated from the door panel 1. That is, in the handle device 100, by gripping the gripping portion 23 of the operating handle 20 and pulling it toward oneself, the operating handle 20 is swung from the initial position to the operating position around the engaging point of the first engaging portion 25 with the first support portion 12 as a fulcrum. Also, when the operating handle 20 is released, it is swung from the operating position to the initial position around the engaging point of the first engaging portion 25 with the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10 as a fulcrum by an internal biasing means (not shown). In the handle device 100, by pulling the operating handle 20 toward oneself and swinging it to an operating position, a latch (not shown) of the door device is operated and the door is opened.

[0037] Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the cylinder cover 60. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the cylinder cover 60 as viewed from the rear side.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the cylinder cover 60 has a flat plate portion 61 and a peripheral wall portion 62 around the flat plate portion 61. A circular hole portion 61a is formed in the flat plate portion 61. The peripheral wall portion 62 is formed to rise from the periphery of the flat plate portion 61 in the mounting direction to the cylinder lock 30. The cylinder cover 60 also has a pair of locking claws 63, 64 at its upper and lower positions. The upper and lower locking claws 63, 64 are arranged in opposing positions. The upper locking claw 63 is formed to protrude downward from the edge of the peripheral wall portion 62, and the lower locking claw 64 is formed to protrude upward from the edge of the peripheral wall portion 62. The lower locking claw 64 has a guide surface 64a on the surface opposite to the flat plate portion 61 that gradually inclines toward the flat plate portion 61 in the protruding direction. In addition, the cylinder cover 60 has a protrusion 65 that protrudes outward from the peripheral wall portion 62 .

[0039] Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the cylinder lock 30 and the cylinder cover 60. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the cylinder lock 30 with the cylinder cover 60 attached, as viewed from the back side.

[0040] 5 and 6, the cylinder lock 30 to which the cylinder cover 60 is attached has a cylinder portion 31 into which a key is inserted and turned, and a flange portion 32 that protrudes around the cylinder portion 31. The cylinder portion 31 is formed in a circular shape, and a portion of it protrudes from the flange portion 32 to the front side. In addition, the flange portion 32 has locking recesses 33 formed above and below it.

[0041] When the cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30, the front side of the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30 is covered by the flat plate portion 61, and the periphery of the flange portion 32 is covered by the peripheral wall portion 62. In this state, the cylinder portion 31 of the cylinder lock 30 is fitted into the hole portion 61a of the flat plate portion 61 of the cylinder cover 60. When the cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30 in this manner, the locking claws 63, 63 of the cylinder cover 60 lock into the locking recesses 33 formed in the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30. This fixes the cylinder cover 60 to the cylinder lock 30.

[0042] By mounting this cylinder cover 60, the movement of the operating handle 20 toward the vehicle rear BC side, which is the opposite side to the engagement direction of the second support part 14 of the handle base 10, is restricted by the cylinder cover 60. In addition, when the operating handle 20 is rotated, the second engaging part 26 of the operating handle 20 abuts against the protrusion 65 of the cylinder cover 60, thereby restricting the movement of the second engaging part 26 of the operating handle 20 toward the vehicle rear BC, which is the opposite side to the engagement direction of the second engaging part 26 of the operating handle 20 to the handle base 10, and the operating handle 20 is prevented from coming off. In addition, instead of the cylinder lock 30, a dummy cylinder made of resin and having approximately the same outer shape as the cylinder lock 30 may be attached to the handle base 10, and the cylinder cover 60 may be attached to this dummy cylinder. In this case, the movement of the operating handle 20 toward the vehicle rear BC side can be restricted by the cylinder cover 60 attached to the dummy cylinder.

[0043] Next, the assembly of the handle device 100 to the door panel 1 will be described. 7A to 7E are horizontal cross-sectional views of the door panel 1 at the mounting location of the handle device 100, illustrating the procedure for assembling the handle device 100. Figs. 8A to 8B are vertical cross-sectional views of the door panel 1 at the mounting location of the cylinder lock 30, illustrating the procedure for mounting the cylinder cover 60.

[0044] As shown in Fig. 7A, the handle base 10 is attached from the inside of the door panel 1. Specifically, a claw (not shown) provided on the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10 is attached to the first opening 2 of the door panel 1, and a claw (not shown) provided on the second support portion 14 of the handle base 10 is attached to the second opening 3. Then, the first support hole 11 of the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10 is communicated with the first opening 2 of the door panel 1, and the second support hole 13 of the second support portion 14 of the handle base 10 is communicated with the second opening 3 of the door panel 1. In addition, the first gasket 40 and the second gasket 50 are attached from the outside of the door panel 1.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 7B, the cylinder lock 30 is fitted into the second support hole 13 of the second support portion 14 of the handle base 10 from the outside of the door panel 1, and the cylinder lock 30 is fixed to the handle base 10 from the inside of the door panel 1 with a screw 35.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 7C, the operating handle 20 is assembled from the outside of the door panel 1. Specifically, the first engaging portion 25 of the operating handle 20 is inserted into the first support hole 11 of the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10, and the second engaging portion 26 of the operating handle 20 is inserted into the second support hole 13 of the second support portion 14 of the handle base 10. The second engaging portion 26 is inserted into the vehicle front FR side with respect to the cylinder lock 30 in the second support hole 13. After the first engaging portion 25 and the second engaging portion 26 are inserted into the first support hole 11 and the second support hole 13, the operating handle 20 is slid toward the vehicle front FR side as shown in FIG. 7D. This causes the engaging claw 25a of the first engaging portion 25 to engage with the first support portion 12 of the handle base 10. Also, the engaging claw 26a of the second engaging portion 26 is engaged with a lever (not shown) that is rotatably held by the second support portion 14. By sliding the operating handle 20 toward the vehicle front FR, a gap δ is formed between the second engagement portion 26 and the cylinder lock 30.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 7E, the operating handle 20 is pulled toward the user and rotated to form a gap between the second mounting portion 22 and the door panel 1, and the cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30 from the outside of the door panel 1.

[0048] To attach the cylinder cover 60, first, as shown in Fig. 8A, the locking claw 63 on the upper side of the cylinder cover 60 is locked in the locking recess 33 on the upper side of the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30. Next, the lower part of the cylinder cover 60 is pushed toward the cylinder lock 30, and as shown in Fig. 8B, the locking claw 64 on the lower side of the cylinder cover 60 is locked in the locking recess 33 on the lower side of the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30.

[0049] In this way, the locking claw 63 on the upper side of the cylinder cover 60 is locked to the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30, and then the locking claw 64 on the lower side is locked to the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30. Therefore, the cylinder cover 60 can be easily attached to the cylinder lock 30 in the gap between the second mounting portion 22 of the operating handle 20 and the door panel 1 without dropping off the cylinder cover 60. In addition, when attaching the cylinder cover 60 to the cylinder lock 30, the locking claw 64 is easily elastically deformed by the guide surface 64a, which gradually inclines toward the flat plate portion 61 in the protruding direction, abutting against the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30. Therefore, the locking claw 64 can easily get over the flange portion 32 and enter the locking recess 33 on the back side of the flange portion 32. In addition, since the cylinder cover 60 has a plurality of locking claws 63, 64 that can be locked to the cylinder lock 30, the cylinder cover 60 can be easily attached to the cylinder lock 30 by locking these locking claws 63, 64 to the cylinder lock 30.

[0050] When the cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30, the front side of the flange portion 32 of the cylinder lock 30 is covered by the flat plate portion 61, and the periphery of the flange portion 32 is covered by the peripheral wall portion 62. In this state, the cylinder portion 31 of the cylinder lock 30 is fitted into the hole portion 61a of the flat plate portion 61 of the cylinder cover 60.

[0051] In this way, when the cylinder cover 60 is attached to the cylinder lock 30, the gap δ is filled by the protrusion 65 provided on the vehicle front FR side of the cylinder cover 60, so that the movement of the operating handle 20 toward the rear, which is the opposite direction to the engagement direction of the handle base 10 with the second support part 14, is restricted by the cylinder cover 60. In other words, the movement of the operating handle 20 toward the vehicle rear BC side is restricted. This prevents the operating handle 20 from coming off the handle base 10.

[0052] As described above, according to the handle device 100 of this embodiment, the cylinder cover 60 attached to the cylinder lock 30 has the function of preventing the operating handle 20 from coming off from the handle base 10. Therefore, even in an escutcheon-integrated sleeveless type in which the cylinder lock 30 is covered by being overlapped with the operating handle 20, the operating handle 20 can be easily prevented from coming off by engaging the operating handle 20 with the handle base 10 and attaching the cylinder cover 60 to the cylinder lock 30, thereby reducing costs and improving assembly workability.

[0053] Moreover, the cylinder cover 60 has a protrusion 65 with which the vehicle rear BC side, which is the side opposite to the engagement direction of the second engagement part 26 of the operating handle 20 with the handle base 10, can abut. Therefore, by the second engagement part 26 of the operating handle 20 abutting against the protrusion 65 of the cylinder cover 60, movement of the second engagement part 26 of the operating handle 20 in the side opposite to the engagement direction with the handle base 10 is restricted, and the effect of preventing the operating handle 20 from coming off is enhanced.

[0054] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately modified, improved, etc. In addition, the material, shape, size, number, arrangement location, etc. of each component in the above-described embodiment are arbitrary as long as the present invention can be achieved, and are not limited.
