  FIG. 8 is an explanatory view showing the state of the heel unit 8 accompanying the operation of the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13 from the inside (inside the room) and the outside (outside) of the handle device 1. FIGS. 8A and 8B both show a state in which the housing 9 is exposed from the housing unit 8. That is, the door is locked. The handle apparatus 1 which concerns on this Embodiment can be used for the sliding door for toilets as an example. In this case, the handle device 1 is operated and locked and unlocked from the indoor side. As this operation, the upper operation buttons 12 arranged above and below in the recess 5 formed as a pull of the inner frame 3 are used. Alternatively, the lower operation button 13 is pressed. The operation surfaces of the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13 are opposed to each other in the recess 5, and both are connected on the back side, so that the distance between the opposed surfaces is constant regardless of which button is operated. That is, the length, width, and depth of the recess 5 are always constant regardless of whether the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13 are up and down, and a finger is inserted depending on the state of the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13. It doesn't become difficult.

Further, in the present embodiment, the lower operation button 13 is pressed and the upper operation button 12 is exposed so that the locked state is obtained. Therefore, the upper operation button 12 is visible on the surface of the user. Colored or lettered lock display.

In the illustrated example, the upper operation button 12 is pushed upward and the lower operation button 13 is exposed to unlock. Then, the above-described coloring of the surface of the upper operation button 12 or the lock display by characters cannot be visually recognized by the user, and the user is made aware that the lock is released.
Further, in the unlocked state, the colored portion 35d such as red that has been exposed through the small hole 7c provided in the finger hanging recess 7 of the outer frame 2 facing the outdoor side moves upward. It becomes invisible and only the mark 35c that has moved upward is visible. This makes it possible to recognize that the door is not locked from the outside.

In the case where the handle for the sliding door is formed by the concave portion provided on the door surface, the concave portion requires an opening having a size that does not hinder the insertion and removal of the fingertip. On the other hand, in order to form a handle, the side surface of the door must be drilled for attachment, but the size of the hole is preferably as small as possible and a simple shape.
In the handle device 1 according to the present embodiment, the structures provided on the back surfaces of the flange portions 4 and 6 do not exceed the total length and width of the flange portions 4 and 6. Moreover, the size of the hole opened in the door is formed smaller than the total length and width of the flange portions 4 and 6. And the structure provided in the back surface of the flange parts 4 and 6 is formed in the minimum magnitude | size which can be accommodated.
Of course, if the size of the hole to be opened in the door is larger than the total length and width of the flange portions 4 and 6, the handle device 1 falls into the door and cannot be attached, and is provided on the back surface of the flange portions 4 and 6. It is because it cannot be accommodated in the door if it is smaller than the structure.

FIG. 9 is an external view showing the front and back of the handle device 1. FIG. 9A shows the flange portion 6 of the outer frame 2 of the handle device 1 and the concave portion 7 disposed at the center of the flange portion 6. FIG. 9B shows the flange portion 4 of the inner frame 3 of the handle device 1 and the concave portion 5 arranged at the center of the flange portion 4.
The sizes of the flange portions 6 and 4 and the recesses 7 and 5 of the outer frame 2 and the inner frame 3 may be slightly different, but they are formed to be substantially the same unless there is a special reason for making them different. That is, the full length (V) and the full width (H) of the flange portions 6 and 4 are the same, and the length (V0) and the width (H0) of the concave portions 7 and 5 are also the same.

The length (V0) and the width (H0) of the recesses 7 and 5 are determined to be dimensions that take into account the size that is easy for the user to operate. In this embodiment, the length V0 × width H of the recess is 110 mm × 22 mm.
Moreover, although the bulging part 5a mentioned above and the bulging part 7a will protrude on the back surface of each flange based on the form of the said recessed part, the external dimensions of the said bulging part 5a and the bulging part 7a are mentioned. Is obtained by adding a thickness of about 1 mm to 1.5 mm to the shape of the aforementioned recess. That is, the outer shape of the bulging portion 5a and the bulging portion 7a is 112 mm × 24 mm to 113 mm × 25 mm, which is 2 mm to 3 mm larger than the concave portions 7 and 5.

9A shows a contact area 61 (an outer peripheral area indicated by a two-dot chain line) with the door set on the flange portion 7 of the outer frame 2, and FIG. 9B shows the inner frame 3. The contact area 60 (outer peripheral area shown with a dashed-two dotted line) with the door set to the flange part 4 is shown.
In other words, the shape inside the regions shown as the contact region 60 and the contact region 61 is the shape of a hole in the door, and a constant width (about 3 mm in the present embodiment) around the outer periphery of the hole is a handle. It becomes a contact area with the apparatus 1. In order to function as a handle, it is not necessary to have a width of 3mm around the entire circumference, but the width of the contact area should not be exposed even if a hole with slightly poor dimensional accuracy is drilled. Has a margin.

As described above, the handle device 1 according to the present embodiment includes the finger-hanging recesses 5 and 7 having such a size that the opening / closing operation of the door is not inconvenient. Since the size of the recess 5 is constant despite the inclusion of the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13 for the locking operation, it is easy to put the finger in the locked state or the unlocked state. There is no influence.
In addition, the upper and lower operation buttons 12 and 13 for locking and unlocking as described above are housed in the recessed portion 5 for hooking and interlocked with these facing the back surface (the bulging portion 5a) of the recessed portion 5. The members 14 are connected. The interlocking member 14 is a plate-like body provided with a projecting body 18 that drives the heel unit, and is formed in a size that does not significantly exceed the outer shape of the bulging portion 5a. It has a structure.

The width H of the flanges 4 and 6 is the largest in the width of the handle device 1, and this width H includes a width portion H1 including a margin for attachment to a hole on both sides of the width H0 of the minimum necessary recess as a finger-hanging recess. , H2 is included. The width portions H1 and H2 can be formed to be about ½ of the lateral width H0 of the recess or smaller than this dimension value. Accordingly, the lateral width H of the handle device 1 can be formed with a size that does not exceed twice the width H0 of the finger-hanging recess, and the device can be downsized.
Moreover, the vertical width V of the flanges 4 and 6 is the maximum in the entire length of the handle device 1 in the vertical direction (longitudinal direction). This vertical width V includes a vertical width V0 of a minimum necessary concave portion as a finger-hanging concave portion and width portions V1 and V2 including upper and lower attachment margins for holes.
The width portions V1 and V2 are formed to be about twice as long as the moving stroke S of the upper operation button 12 and the lower operation button 13 that appear and disappear in the recess. Actually, the length of the mounting hole is slightly longer than twice the moving stroke S in anticipation of inaccuracy of the mounting hole, but it is possible to form a dimension value that is less than twice the moving stroke S structurally. Thus, the device can be miniaturized.

As shown in FIG. 1, the handle device 1 described above is an example in which the bag unit 8 is mounted on the left end surface of the door as viewed from the indoor side. In this case, the hook unit 8 can be operated by inserting the one protrusion 18 a of the interlocking member 14 into the driving means 50 of the hook unit 8.
However, the handle device 1 has a structure in which the saddle unit 8 can be mounted on the right end surface of the door as viewed from the indoor side shown in FIG. In this case, the bag unit 8 can be operated by inserting the other protrusion 18b of the interlocking member 14 into the driving means 50 of the bag unit 8. That is, the handle device 1 according to the present embodiment can be used at either the left or right end of the door.
