ABSTRACT:
A pull out type door handle assembly includes a mounting member attached to a vehicle door and a generally U-shaped handle pivoted thereto at a first leg with a second leg extending through an aperture in the mounting member and having the shoulder thereon engaged with the peripheral flange of the aperture to limit the inward rotation of the handle and define the inoperative position thereof. The second leg includes a lateral extension spaced from the inner side of the mounting member and engageable with one arm of a bell crank lever pivoted to the inside of the mounting member. The other arm of the lever is connected to a latch release lever. A spring rotatably biases the one arm of the bell crank lever into engagement with the lateral extension to maintain the handle in inoperative position. As the handle is rotated outwardly of the mounting member, the one bell crank lever arm engages the inner side of the mounting member to define the operative position of the handle and release the vehicle latch. The spring returns the bell crank lever and handle to inoperative position upon release of the handle.
