An operation rod 70 includes a first rod 71 and a second rod 72. A one-end portion 71a of the first rod 71 is connected to a lock closer 60 so as to be rotationally movable. The second rod 72 is supported so as to be slidingly movable relative to a hand lever 8. A connecting portion 73 connects an opposite-end portion 71b of the first rod 71 and a one-end portion 72a of the second rod 72 to each other. The connecting portion 73 includes: a long hole 80 which is formed in the opposite-end portion 71b of the first rod 71; and a pin 81 which is formed on the one-end portion 72a of the second rod 72 and which engages with the long hole 80 so as to be slidingly movable therein. While the hand lever 8 is moving rotationally, the connecting portion 73 allows the opposite-end portion 71b of the first rod 71 to move rotationally and slidingly relative to the one-end portion 72a of the second rod 72.
