Abstract
A handle device includes: a fixing member including a cylinder part having one end open and another end at a bottom portion; a handle rotatably provided on the fixing member and configured to become an open state or a closed state by rotation; a biasing member configured to bias the handle in a closing direction; and a piston inserted into the cylinder part so as to be advanceable and retractable. The piston includes a sliding part provided on an outer peripheral surface thereof. The piston is pushed and retracts toward the bottom portion when the handle is rotated in the closing direction, causing the sliding part to be slid along an inner peripheral surface of the cylinder part in response to the retraction, thereby providing resistance against a closing operation of the handle.
