Abstract

See full text

A door opening prevention mechanism includes a lever member rotatable relative to a base member and swingable in a vehicle inside-and-outside direction, and an urging member to bias the lever member toward a set position. The lever member is held in the set position when an outer handle is located in a door closing position when a given inertial force does not act in a vehicle outside direction during a vehicle collision, and swings in the vehicle outside direction from the set position to be moved to a locked position against an urging force of the urging member when the inertial force acts. When the lever member is in the set position, movement of a connection lever in a door opening direction is allowed. When the lever member is located in the locked position, movement of the connection lever in the door opening direction is restricted.
