A door handle apparatus for a vehicle is assembled to a door panel of the vehicle. The door handle apparatus includes a base, a grip, and a switch device. The grip is supported by the base, rotates from a state in which an outer surface of the grip is located in a same plane as an outer surface of the door panel, and is transitionable to a state of protruding from the outer surface of the door panel. The switch device includes a switch body and a switch cover. The switch cover is supported by the base, rotates around the second shaft, enters an inner surface of the door panel, and engages with the switch body to switch ON and OFF states of a switch element.

An operation relay device for a motor-vehicle door latch includes a base fixed to a door panel of a door, an operation handle pivotably supported to the base, and a link lever transmitting an opening operation by the operation handle to a door latch. The base includes a plurality of fixing parts, and the operation handle is pivotably supported at a position deviating from a center in a front-rear direction on the base, so that a center of gravity of the operation relay device is in a side of the deviating position. The fixing parts except a specific fixing part are respectively fixed to the door panel by a bolt. The specific fixing part is a temporary fixing piece that is integrally formed on the upper portion of the base to be capable of engaging with an engaging hole formed on the door panel.

The a detection device is configured to activate at least one function of an apparatus, for example activating an electric lock of a vehicle's door, upon the detection of a force applied to an activation part of the apparatus. The apparatus includes a fixed part. The activation part is fixedly attached to the fixed part. The detection device includes a blade and at least one sensor. The blade includes a first bearing part configured to bear against the activation part and a second bearing part configured to bear against the fixed part. The at least one sensor is arranged on the blade and is configured to measure a deformation of the blade when a force is applied on the activation part and collect a deformation signal to be transmitted to a controller. The at least one sensor includes a first sensor arranged between the first and second bearing parts.

A device includes a support, a handle mounted pivotably with respect to the support, a lever for actuating a lock of the door configured to cooperate with an extension element of the handle extending transversely from an inner face of the handle. Moreover, the lever is mounted movable on an axis of articulation of the support against a resilient return member between a first rest configuration of the member in which it extends across a path of the extension element to generate a stress resisting the pivoting of the handle and a second configuration of actuation of the lock in which it is driven in rotation about said axis by the extension element during the pivoting of the handle after having overcome the resisting stress.

A door handle apparatus to be attached to a door of a vehicle is provided. The door handle apparatus includes a case, a strain body, and an elastic mechanism. The case includes an outer case provided so as to face a vehicle exterior side and an inner case provided so as to face a vehicle interior side. The outer case and the inner case are integrated with each other. The strain body is provided in the case, has a sensor mounted on a middle portion between one end portion and an opposite end portion of the strain body, and the one end portion of the strain body is fixed to a portion on a center side of the inner case. The elastic mechanism uses an elastic force to press the opposite end portion of the strain body against a fixing portion at an end of the inner case.
