ABSTRACT:
A handle device for use in imparting a movement to an automobile door about a hinge axis for the purpose of opening and closing the door without causing the user's hand to become dirty. The handle device includes a handle part and a support structure for pivotally supporting the handle for movement about an axis that is parallel to the hinge axis. The movement of the handle part is between a position wherein the handle part is exposed and a further position wherein the handle is received wholly within an opening in the door. Surface structure is provided on the door and surface structure is provided on an end plate on the handle which engage to prevent admittance of dirt and the like into the opening in the door. When the handle part is moved to the exposed position, the end plate will become spaced from the opening outwardly from the outwardly facing surface of the door to allow access to a clean handle part to facilitate an opening and a closing of the door by enabling clean parts of the handle to be gripped to impart the opening and closing movements of the door about the hinge axis.
