The invention relates to a handle device (1) for a lock unit of a vehicle, comprising a handle part (10) which is movably mounted relative to a door (11) of the vehicle and which can be displaced between a rest position and an operating position, the handle part (10) being flush with the exterior of the door (11) in the rest position and projecting from the exterior of the door (11) in the operating position. The handle part (10) can be manually actuated to open the door (11) when in the operating position. An actuating unit (12) is used to transfer the handle part (10) at least from the rest position to the operating position. According to the invention, the handle device further comprises a lock cylinder (14) which is arranged in the handle device (1) such that the actuating unit (12) covers the lock cylinder (14) towards the exterior of the door (11) and at least partially releases the lock cylinder (14) when manually actuated.
A handle device including a locking device for a vehicle, said handle device comprising:
A method for actuating a handle device including a locking device in a vehicle, the handle device including a locking cylinder and a handle part mounted movably with respect to a door of the vehicle that is movable between a rest position in which the handle part is flush with respect to an outer side of the door and an operating position in which the handle part protrudes out of the outer side of the door, wherein the handle part is operable manually to open the door comprising the steps of moving a blocking element into a release position to enable movement of the handle part, moving an actuating unit to transfer the handle part at least from the rest position in which the locking cylinder is concealed with respect to the outer side of the door into the operating position to at least partially release the locking cylinder.
