As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the sliding door 11 comprises a flat sliding door body 12 and a sliding door handle 17 attached to the sliding door body 12. The sliding door body 12 has a first surface 13, a second surface 14 opposite the first surface 13, an end surface 15 connecting the first surface 13 and the second surface 14, and a recess 16 provided in the end surface 15. The sliding door body 12 may be a so-called flush door formed by butting two decorative panels together with a framed core material sandwiched between them, or it may be a solid door formed from a single piece of wood material or the like.

The recess 16 is provided at a position in the middle of the vertical direction V (up-down direction) of the sliding door body 12, and is formed so as to be recessed in the horizontal direction from the end face 15. The recess 16 penetrates the first surface 13 and the second surface 14. The recess 16 has an edge portion 21 that defines its ends (both ends) in the vertical direction V, a bottom portion 22 in the depth direction D, and a corner portion 23 where the edge portion 21 and the bottom portion 22 intersect.

As shown in Figures 1, 5, 7, and 8, the sliding door handle 17 includes a first member 31 attached to the first surface 13 side of the recess 16 of the sliding door body 12, a second member 32 attached to the second surface 14 side of the recess 16 of the sliding door body 12, a decorative plate member 33 provided on the end surface 15 side so as to straddle the first member 31 and the second member 32, one or more first fixing members 34 that fix the first member 31 to the sliding door body 12, and one or more second fixing members 35 that fix the second member 32 to the sliding door body 12.

The first member 31 is mounted in the recess 16. As shown in Figs. 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, and 13, the first member 31 has a first member body 36 formed long and narrow in the vertical direction V, a first finger hook portion 37 provided on the first member body 36, a first adhesive portion 38 provided on the first member body 36, a first upper member 41 fixed to the upper part of the first member body 36, a first lower member 42 fixed to the lower part of the first member body 36, and a pair of first intermediate members 43 fixed to the inner surface of the first member body 36. The first member body 36 is integrally formed by extrusion. The first member body 36 is formed of, for example, a metal material, specifically, an aluminum alloy or brass.

As shown in FIG. 12, the first bottom wall 37A is inclined so as to move away from the first surface 13 as it approaches the end surface 15. A gap 44 is formed between the tip of the first standing wall 37B and the first surface 13. The first base wall 37C faces the first standing wall 37B.

5, 8, 10, and 13, the first upper member 41 is formed in an "L" shape when viewed from above. The first upper member 41 has an overlapping portion 45 that rises upward and covers the sliding door main body 12, and a first upper guide portion 46 having a through hole through which the first fixing member 34 is passed. As shown in FIG. 8, the through hole of the first upper guide portion 46 is formed obliquely with respect to the depth direction D of the recess 16 so as to guide the first fixing member 34 in an obliquely upward direction. This first fixing member 34 is provided in the vicinity of the corner portion 23 of the recess 16. The first upper member 41 is formed, for example, from a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. Alternatively, the first upper member 41 may be formed from a resin material or the like. The first upper member 41 is fixed to the first member main body 36 by a fixing device 47 such as a screw.

5, 8, 10, and 13, the first lower member 42 is formed in an "L" shape when viewed from above. The first lower member 42 has an overlapping portion 45 that rises downward and covers the sliding door main body 12, and a first lower guide portion 51 having a through hole through which the first fixing member 34 is passed. As shown in FIG. 8, the through hole of the first lower guide portion 51 is formed obliquely with respect to the depth direction D of the recess 16 so as to guide the first fixing member 34 in a diagonally downward direction. This first fixing member 34 is provided at the corner portion 23 of the recess 16. The first lower member 42 is formed, for example, from a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. Alternatively, the first lower member 42 may be formed from a resin material or the like. The first lower member 42 is fixed to the first member main body 36 by a fixing device 47 such as a screw.

As shown in FIG. 6, the first intermediate member 43 is formed in a convex shape when viewed from a direction directly opposite the end face 15. The first intermediate member 43 has a first intermediate guide portion 52 having a through hole through which the first fixing member 34 passes. As shown in FIG. 8, the through hole of the first intermediate guide portion 52 is formed in the lateral direction, i.e., along the depth direction D of the recess 16. The first intermediate member 43 is formed, for example, from a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. Alternatively, the first intermediate member 43 may be formed from a resin material or the like. The first intermediate member 43 is fixed to the first member body 36 by a fastener 47 such as a screw.

The second member 32 is mounted in the recess 16. The second member 32 faces the first member 31. The second member 32 is formed in the same shape as the first member 31. As shown in FIG. 6, the second member 32 is two-fold rotationally symmetrical with respect to the first member 31, that is, point-symmetrical (line-symmetrical), with respect to the midpoint C between the first member 31 and the second member 32 (or an axis passing through the midpoint C and extending horizontally and parallel to the first surface 13). Therefore, the first member 31 can also be used as the second member 32 by flipping it 180 degrees with respect to the midpoint C.

2, 4, 5, 7, and 11, the second member 32 has a second member body 53 formed long and narrow in the vertical direction V, a second finger hook portion 54 provided on the second member body 53, a second adhesive portion 55 provided on the second member body 53, a second upper member 56 fixed to the upper part of the second member body 53, a second lower member 57 fixed to the lower part of the second member body 53, and a pair of second intermediate members 58 fixed to the inner surface of the second member body 53. The second member body 53 is integrally formed by extrusion. The second member body 53 is formed of, for example, a metal material, specifically, an aluminum alloy or brass. The second adhesive portion 55 constitutes a portion that becomes an overlap when the decorative plate member 33 is adhered.

The second finger hook portion 54 has a second bottom wall 54A recessed from the second surface 14, a second standing wall 54B standing from an end of the second bottom wall 54A closer to the end surface 15, and a second base wall 54C standing from an end of the second bottom wall 54A opposite to the end surface 15. As shown in FIG. 12, the second bottom wall 54A is inclined so as to move away from the second surface 14 as it approaches the end surface 15. A gap 44 is formed between the tip of the second standing wall 54B and the second surface 14. The second base wall 54C faces the second standing wall 54B.

5 and 11, the second upper member 56 is formed in an "L" shape when viewed from above. The second upper member 56 abuts against the first upper member 41. The second upper member 56 has an overlapping portion 45 that rises upward and covers the sliding door main body 12, and a second upper guide portion 61 having a through hole through which the second fixing member 35 passes. As shown in FIG. 7, the through hole of the second upper guide portion 61 is formed obliquely with respect to the depth direction D of the recess 16 so as to guide the second fixing member 35 in an obliquely upward direction. This second fixing member 35 is provided at the corner portion 23 of the recess 16. As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the second upper guide portion 61 is misaligned with the first upper guide portion 46 in the depth direction D of the recess 16. Therefore, the second fixing member 35 corresponding to this second upper guide portion 61 is misaligned with the first fixing member 34 corresponding to the first upper guide portion 46 in the depth direction D of the recess 16. The second upper member 56 is formed of, for example, a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. The second upper member 56 is fixed to the second member body 53 by a fastener 47 such as a screw.

5 and 11, the second lower member 57 is formed in an "L" shape when viewed from above. The second lower member 57 abuts against the first lower member 42. The second lower member 57 has an overlapping portion 45 that rises downward and covers the sliding door main body 12, and a second lower guide portion 62 having a through hole through which the second fixing member 35 is passed. As shown in FIG. 7, the through hole of the second lower guide portion 62 is formed obliquely with respect to the depth direction D of the recess 16 so as to guide the second fixing member 35 in a diagonally downward direction. This second fixing member 35 is provided near the corner portion 23 of the recess 16. As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the second lower guide portion 62 is misaligned with the first lower guide portion 51 in the depth direction D of the recess 16. Therefore, the second fixing member 35 corresponding to this second lower guide portion 62 is misaligned with the first fixing member 34 corresponding to the first lower guide portion 51 in the depth direction D of the recess 16. The second lower member 57 is formed of, for example, a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. The second lower member 57 is fixed to the first member body 36 by a fastener 47 such as a screw.

6, 11, etc., the second intermediate member 58 is formed in a convex shape when viewed from the direction facing the end surface 15. The second intermediate member 58 has a second intermediate guide portion 63 having a through hole through which the second fixing member 35 passes. As shown in FIG. 7, the through hole of the second intermediate guide portion 63 is formed in the horizontal direction, that is, along the depth direction D of the recess 16. As shown in FIG. 6, the second intermediate guide portion 63 is misaligned with the first intermediate guide portion 52 in the vertical direction V. Therefore, the second fixing member 35 corresponding to this second intermediate guide portion 63 is misaligned with the first fixing member 34 corresponding to the first intermediate guide portion 52 in the vertical direction V. The second intermediate member 58 is formed, for example, from a metal material, specifically, zinc die-cast or brass. Alternatively, the second intermediate member 58 may be formed from a resin material or the like. The second intermediate member 58 is fixed to the second member main body 53 by a fastener 47 such as a screw.

The first fixing member 34 is, for example, a screw (wood screw) for fixing the first member 31 to the sliding door body 12. The second fixing member 35 is, for example, a screw (wood screw) for fixing the second member 32 to the sliding door body 12. The second fixing member 35 has the same shape as the first fixing member 34.

As shown in FIG. 14, the decorative plate member 33 has a decorative plate body 33A formed in a flat plate shape from, for example, a resin material, and an adhesive layer 33B provided on one surface of the decorative plate body 33A. The decorative plate member 33 is fixed so as to straddle the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 and the second adhesive portion 55 of the second member 32 via the adhesive layer 33B, and cover the end surface 15 side of the recess 16. At that time, the decorative plate member 33 is fixed so as to straddle the first upper member 41, the first lower member 42, the second upper member 56, and the second lower member 57. The decorative plate member 33 is formed to a thickness that can be cut using a general cutter, for example, a thickness of about 0.3 to 1.5 mm.

Next, a method for assembling the sliding door handle 17 of this embodiment and the sliding door 11 equipped with the same will be described with reference to Figures 13 and 14, etc. As shown in Figure 13, the first upper member 41 is fixed from above to the upper part of the first member body 36 with fasteners 47 such as screws, and the first lower member 42 is fixed from below to the lower part of the first member body 36 with fasteners 47 such as screws. Furthermore, a pair of first intermediate members 43 are fixed to the inner side surface of the first member body 36 with fasteners 47 such as screws. This completes the assembly of the first member 31.

Similarly, the second upper member 56 is fixed from above to the upper part of the second member body 53 with fasteners 47 such as screws, and the second lower member 57 is fixed from below to the lower part of the second member body 53 with fasteners 47 such as screws. Furthermore, a pair of second intermediate members 58 are fixed to the inner side surface of the second member body 53 with fasteners 47 such as screws. This completes the assembly of the second member 32. Alternatively, one of the two first members 31 assembled in the above manner may be rotated 180 degrees and used as the second member 32.

Next, as shown in FIG. 14, the second member 32 is fixed to the second surface 14 side of the recess 16. The first member 31 and the second member 32 may be attached in any order. The recess 16 is formed in the sliding door body 12 in advance. When fixing the second member 32 to the recess 16, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary. The second fixing member 35 is passed through the second intermediate guide portion 63 of the second intermediate member 58, and the second fixing member 35 is fastened to the pilot hole, thereby fixing the second member 32 to the sliding door body 12. Similarly, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary, and the second fixing member 35 is passed through the second upper guide portion 61 of the second upper member 56. The second fixing member 35 is fastened to the pilot hole, thereby fixing the second member 32 to the sliding door body 12. Furthermore, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary, and the second fixing member 35 is passed through the second lower guide portion 62 of the second lower member 57. The second member 32 is fixed to the sliding door body 12 by fastening the second fixing member 35 to the pilot hole.

Next, the first member 31 is fixed to the first surface 13 side of the recess 16. At that time, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door main body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first intermediate guide portion 52 of the first intermediate member 43. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door main body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole. Similarly, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door main body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first upper guide portion 46 of the first upper member 41. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door main body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole. Furthermore, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door main body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first lower guide portion 51 of the first lower member 42. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door main body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole.

The decorative plate member 33 is fixed to the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 and the second adhesive portion 55 of the second member 32, which are fixed to the recess 16, via the adhesive layer 33B. The decorative plate member 33 is cut to an optimal width (width in the horizontal direction) in advance using a cutter or the like, and then adhered so as to straddle the first member 31 (first adhesive portion 38) and the second member 32 (second adhesive portion 55). This causes the end surface 15 side of the recess 16 to be blocked by the decorative plate member 33. This completes the assembly of the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11.

The operation of the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11 of this embodiment will be described with reference to Figure 15. The sliding door 11 is stored in the door pocket 64 when not in use. When a user wants to pull out the sliding door 11 from the door pocket 64, the user pinches and holds the sliding door handle 17, i.e., the first member 31 and the second member 32, with their fingers. At that time, a gap 44 is formed between the first standing wall 37B and the first surface 13, and a gap 44 is formed between the second standing wall 54B and the second surface 14, so that the user can smoothly insert their fingers into these gaps 44. As shown in FIG. 12, the first bottom wall 37A is formed at an angle so as to move away from the first surface 13 as it approaches the end surface 15, and the second bottom wall 54A is formed at an angle so as to move away from the second surface 14 as it approaches the end surface 15. This ensures that the first upright wall 37B and the second upright wall 54B have a sufficient protruding height, making it possible to easily hook the fingers on them. In this way, the user can easily pull out the sliding door 11 from the door pocket 64. On the other hand, when the user has finished using the sliding door 11, for example, the user can push in the end surface 15, or hook the first base wall 37C of the first member 31 shown in FIG. 3 or the second base wall 54C of the second member 32 shown in FIG. 4 with the fingers and push in the retracting direction, thereby storing the sliding door 11 in the door pocket 64.

According to this embodiment, the following can be said. The sliding door pull handle 17 is attached to a sliding door body 12 having a first surface 13, a second surface 14 opposite the first surface 13, an end surface 15 connecting the first surface 13 and the second surface 14, and a recess 16 provided in the end surface 15, and includes a first member 31 attached to the first surface 13 side of the recess 16 and having a first finger hook portion 37, and a second member 32 attached to the second surface 14 side of the recess 16 and facing the first member 31 ... finger hook portion 37. The second member 32 has a second finger hook 54 provided on the first member 31, a decorative plate member 33 that straddles the first member 31 and the second member 32 and covers the end surface 15 side of the recess 16, one or more first fixing members 34 that are provided between the first member 31 and the second member 32 and fix the first member 31 to the sliding door main body 12, and one or more second fixing members 35 that are provided between the first member 31 and the second member 32 and fix the second member 32 to the sliding door main body 12.

With this configuration, the first fixing member 34 and the second fixing member 35 are provided between the first member 31 and the second member 32 and in a position covered by the decorative plate member 33, so that the first fixing member 34 and the second fixing member 35 are not visible from the outside. This improves the appearance of the sliding door handle 17. In addition, there is no need to provide fitting grooves or fitting protrusions on the first member 31 and the second member 32, which reduces the manufacturing cost of the sliding door handle 17 and simplifies the structure, simplifying the assembly work of the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11.

In this case, the one or more second fixing members 35 are misaligned with respect to the one or more first fixing members 34 in the vertical direction V. This configuration makes it possible to prevent the first fixing members 34 and the second fixing members 35 from interfering with each other when the first member 31 and the second member 32 are installed in close proximity to each other. This allows the first member 31 and the second member 32 to be applied to a thin sliding door body 12 as well, allowing the first member 31 and the second member 32 to be positioned appropriately.

In this case, the one or more second fixing members 35 are misaligned with respect to the one or more first fixing members 34 in the depth direction D of the recess 16. This configuration makes it possible to prevent the first fixing members 34 and the second fixing members 35 from interfering with each other when the first member 31 and the second member 32 are installed in close proximity to each other. This allows the first member 31 and the second member 32 to be applied to a thin sliding door body 12 as well, allowing the first member 31 and the second member 32 to be positioned appropriately.

In this case, the driving direction of one or more first fixing members 34 into the sliding door body 12 is oblique to the depth direction D of the recess 16. With this configuration, even if the first fixing members 34 loosen due to long-term use of the sliding door 11, the amount of rattling of the first member 31 caused by the loosening of the first fixing members 34 can be reduced compared to when the driving direction of the first fixing members 34 is the depth direction D of the recess 16, and further loosening of the first fixing members 34 caused by repeated impacts due to the rattling can be prevented. This makes it possible to realize a sliding door handle 17 and a sliding door 11 that are easy for users to use and in which the first fixing members 34 are less likely to loosen.

In this case, one or more first fixing members 34 are provided at and near a corner 23 at the position where an edge 21 that defines the end of the recess 16 in the vertical direction V intersects with a bottom 22 of the recess 16. With this configuration, when driving the first fixing members 34 at an angle, the worker can insert his or her hand into the recess 16 to drive the first fixing members 34 smoothly.

In this case, the second member 32 is two-fold rotationally symmetric with respect to the first member 31, with the midpoint C between the first member 31 and the second member 32 as the reference point. With this configuration, the second member 32 can be obtained by rotating the first member 31 by 180°, and the first member 31 and the second member 32 can be constructed from common parts. This reduces the number of parts types, thereby reducing the manufacturing costs of the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11.

In this case, the first finger hook portion 37 has a bottom wall that is recessed into the first surface 13 and is inclined so as to move away from the first surface 13 as it approaches the end surface 15, and an upright wall that extends from the end of the bottom wall closer to the end surface 15 in a direction approaching the first surface 13 and has a gap 44 between it and the first surface 13. With this configuration, since the bottom wall is formed at an angle, it is possible to ensure a sufficient finger hook height in the upright walls (first upright wall 37B, second upright wall 54B) that have a gap 44 between them and the first surface 13. This makes it easier for the user to pull out the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11 toward the front side.

In this case, the decorative plate member 33 can be cut with a cutter to any desired width. With this configuration, the width of the decorative plate member 33 can be adjusted according to the size of the gap between the first member 31 and the second member 32. As a result, even if the gap between the first member 31 and the second member 32 is small, the decorative plate member 33 does not protrude from the first member 31 and the second member 32, and the appearance of the sliding door handle 17 and the sliding door 11 can be improved.

In the following embodiment, differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described, and illustrations or descriptions of parts common to the first embodiment will be omitted.
[Second embodiment]

The sliding door 11 of the second embodiment and the sliding door pull tab 17 used therein will be described with reference to Figure 16. The sliding door 11 of this embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the thickness of the sliding door body 12 is different from that of the first embodiment, the second upper member 56 is separated from the first upper member 41, and the second lower member 57 is separated from the first lower member 42, but the other parts are the same as the sliding door 11 of the first embodiment.

The sliding door body 12 is configured to have a greater thickness than in the first embodiment. Therefore, in this embodiment, the sliding door handle 17 has a larger gap between the first member 31 and the second member 32 compared to the first embodiment. The decorative plate member 33 is configured to be wider in the lateral direction than the decorative plate member 33 of the first embodiment. Therefore, the decorative plate member 33 is cut with a cutter or the like so that its width in the lateral direction is larger than that of the decorative plate member 33 of the first embodiment.

The sliding door 11 and sliding door handle 17 of this embodiment can be assembled in the same process as the sliding door 11 of the first embodiment. In addition, the function of the sliding door 11 and sliding door handle 17 of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment.

According to this embodiment, the first member 31 and the second member 32 of the sliding door pull tab 17 can be applied to sliding door bodies 12 having various thickness dimensions by adjusting the gap dimension between the first member 31 and the second member 32 of the sliding door pull tab 17 according to the thickness of the sliding door body 12. This improves the versatility of the sliding door pull tab 17, i.e., the first member 31 and the second member 32, and allows the parts to be shared between sliding doors 11 of different thicknesses. This reduces the manufacturing costs of the sliding door 11 and the sliding door pull tab 17.
[Third embodiment]

The sliding door 11 of the third embodiment and the sliding door pull handle 17 used therein will be described with reference to Figure 17. The sliding door 11 of this embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the second recess 71 does not penetrate the first surface 13 and the second surface 14, and the second member 32 is omitted, but the other parts are the same as the sliding door 11 of the first embodiment.

The sliding door body 12 has a second recess 71 that is provided so as to straddle the first surface 13 and the end surface 15. The second recess 71 does not penetrate the second surface 14, but stops at a position midway between the first surface 13 and the second surface 14 (approximately halfway between the first surface 13 and the second surface 14).

The sliding door handle 17 comprises a first member 31 attached to the first surface 13 side of the second recess 71 of the sliding door body 12, a decorative plate member 33 provided on the end surface 15 side so as to straddle the first member 31 and the sliding door body 12, and one or more first fixing members 34 that fix the first member 31 to the sliding door body 12.

The first member 31 is mounted in the second recess 71. The configuration of the first member 31 is the same as in the first embodiment.

The decorative plate member 33 has a similar configuration to the decorative plate member 33 of the first embodiment, but is formed narrower in the horizontal direction than the decorative plate member 33 of the first embodiment. The decorative plate member 33 is adhered so as to straddle the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 and a part of the end face 15 of the sliding door main body 12, thereby blocking the end face 15 side of the second recess 71. Alternatively, the decorative plate member 33 may be adhered so as to straddle the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 and the first upper member 41 and the first lower member 42, thereby blocking the end face 15 side of the second recess 71.

Next, a method for assembling the sliding door 11 and the sliding door handle 17 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 17. First, the first member 31 is assembled using the same process as in the first embodiment.

Next, the first member 31 of the sliding door handle 17 is fixed to the second recess 71. At that time, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first intermediate guide portion 52 of the first intermediate member 43. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole. Similarly, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first upper guide portion 46 of the first upper member 41. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole. Furthermore, a pilot hole is formed in the sliding door body 12 as necessary, and the first fixing member 34 is passed through the first lower guide portion 51 of the first lower member 42. The first member 31 is fixed to the sliding door body 12 by fastening the first fixing member 34 to the pilot hole.

The decorative plate member 33 is fixed to the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 fixed to the second recess 71 and to a part of the end surface 15 of the sliding door main body 12 via an adhesive layer 33B. The decorative plate member 33 is cut to an optimal width (width in the horizontal direction) in advance using a cutter or the like, and is then adhered so as to straddle the first member 31 (first adhesive portion 38) and a part of the end surface 15 of the sliding door main body 12, or is adhered so as to straddle the first adhesive portion 38 of the first member 31 and the first upper member 41 and first lower member 42. As a result, the end surface 15 side of the second recess 71 is blocked by the decorative plate member 33. With the above, the assembly of the sliding door 11 and the sliding door handle 17 is completed.

The operation of the sliding door 11 and the sliding door handle 17 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 17. The sliding door 11 is stored in the door pocket 64 when not in use. When the user wants to pull out the sliding door 11 from the door pocket 64, the user hooks his/her fingers on the first member 31 of the sliding door handle 17. At that time, since a gap 44 is formed between the first standing wall 37B and the first surface 13, the user can smoothly insert his/her fingers into the gap 44. Also, as in the first embodiment, the first bottom wall 37A is formed at an angle so as to move away from the first surface 13 as it approaches the end surface 15, so that the protruding height of the first standing wall 37B is sufficiently secured to allow good finger hooking on them. In this way, the user can pull out the sliding door 11 and the sliding door handle 17 from the door pocket 64. On the other hand, when the user has finished using the sliding door 11, the sliding door 11 can be stored in the door pocket 64, for example, by pushing in the end surface 15 or by placing a finger on the first base wall 37C of the first member 31 and pushing it in the storage direction.

According to this embodiment, the following can be said. The sliding door pull handle 17 is attached to a sliding door body 12 having a first surface 13, a second surface 14 opposite to the first surface 13, an end surface 15 connecting the first surface 13 and the second surface 14, and a second recess 71 provided across the end surface 15 and the first surface 13. The sliding door pull handle 17 includes a first member 31 attached to the second recess 71 and having a first finger hook portion 37, a decorative plate member 33 bonded to the first member 31 so as to cover the end surface 15 side of the second recess 71, and one or more first fixing members 34 provided between the first member 31 and the sliding door body 12 and fixing the first member 31 to the sliding door body 12.

With this configuration, the first fixing member 34 is provided between the first member 31 and the sliding door main body 12, and is provided in a position covered by the decorative plate member 33, so that the first fixing member 34 is not visible from the outside. This allows the appearance of the sliding door handle 17 to be improved.

The above-described embodiment can be implemented with various substitutions and modifications. Naturally, different embodiments can also be appropriately combined to form a single invention.
