ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a door handle for a vehicle that includes an operation button which is pushed so as to unlock a door of the vehicle. The door handle includes a handle base plate to which the operation button is attached. A sliding wall is provided on the handle base plate and is in sliding contact with the operation button and guides the operation button. An arm has one end that moves linearly in a direction substantially orthogonal to the door when one end of the arm is pressed due to the operation button being pressed. Guiding structure is provided between the arm and the handle base plate. The guiding structure provides fixed guiding surfaces which slidably guide another end of the arm in a direction extending along the door when the arm moves. An unlocking cable is connected to the arm and is operable to unlock the door. Urging structure is configured to urge the arm in a direction such that the operation button returns to a position at which the operation button was located before being pressed.
