INSIDE DOOR HANDLE DEVICE OF VEHICLE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inside door handle device of a vehicle which enables a seat belt to pass through a space between a door inner surface and an operation mechanism part without causing damage.SOLUTION: The invention includes: an inside door handle 27a provided on an inner surface of a door 15 of a vehicle; an operation mechanism part 27b which is provided on the inner surface of the door of the vehicle and conducts lock/unlock operation of the door in response to displacement of the inside door handle; a seat belt 33 which is disposed along the inner surface of the door passing through a space between the inner surface of the door and the operation mechanism part; and a belt protection member 40 which is provided so as to shield the operation mechanism part from the seat belt. The structure allows the seat belt to contact with the belt protection member and thereby avoids interference with the operation mechanism part, which is likely to cause damage of the seat belt, even if the vehicle is collided at its side and the door deforms. 【課題】本発明は、ドア内面と操作機構部との間を、損傷なくシートベルトが通せる車両のインサイドドアハンドル装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明は、車両のドア１５の内面に設けられたインサイドドアハンドル２７ａと、車両のドアの内面に設けられ、インサイドドアハンドルの変位を受けドアの施開錠操作をする操作機構部２７ｂと、ドアの内面と操作機構部との間を通して、ドアの内面沿いに配置されたシートベルト３３と、操作機構部とシートベルトとの間を遮るように設けられたベルト保護部材４０と有するものとした。同構成により、車両が側突を受けてドアが変形しても、シートベルトは、ベルト保護部材と接触し、シートベルトの損傷を招きやすい操作機構部と干渉せずにすむ。【選択図】図４
