Patent attributes
A vehicle door handle device includes a base case secured to a door, and an L-shaped handle lever rotatably mounted on the base case by a supporting shaft and connected to a latch device of the door by way of a connecting member. The handle lever includes an operation arm extending in a first direction and receiving a manual operational force and a coupling arm extending in a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction to be connected to the connecting member. The operation arm is made of a synthetic resin and has a small specific gravity, and the coupling arm is made of a metal and has a great specific gravity. The base portions of the operation arm and the coupling arm are undetachably coupled with each other by the supporting shaft.
