ABSTRACT:
A handle post slants from a neutral position in response to an operational force being applied thereto. A coil spring has a configuration that, through a middle portion of the coil spring, a space is provided between each adjacent turns of the line material which constitutes the coil spring, and, through the remaining two side portions of the coil spring, no space is provided between each adjacent turns of the line material. One end of the coil spring is connected with the handle post. A supporting member is connected with the other end of the coil spring. The supporting member supports the handle post via the coil spring in a manner in which the handle post can slant with respect to the supporting member from the neutral position.
