Summary:To provide a door handle structure capable of preventing erroneous detection by suppressing adhesion of foreign matter such as water to a sensor arrangement section.SOLUTION: A door handle structure includes a door handle 3 protruding outward from a rear door 2 of a vehicle 1 and a sensor unit 4 that detects a user's operation in response to a change in capacitance of an electrode 5. The door handle 3 has a sensor arrangement section portion 6 in which the sensor unit 4 is arranged, and an adjacent section 7 that is provided adjacent to the sensor arrangement section 6. An upper wall surface 9 of the sensor arrangement section 6 has a gentler inclination angle relative to the horizontal direction than an upper wall surface 10 of the adjacent section 7.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】センサ配置部への水等の異物の付着を抑制し、誤検知を防止できるドアハンドル構造を提供する。【解決手段】車両1の後側ドア2から外側方に突設されたドアハンドル3と、電極5の静電容量の変化に応じてユーザの操作を検知するセンサ部4と、を備える。ドアハンドル3は、センサ部4を配置するセンサ配置部6と、センサ配置部6に隣接して設けられる隣接部7とを有している。センサ配置部6の上側壁面9は、隣接部7の上側壁面10よりも、水平方向に対する傾斜角が緩やかである。【選択図】図1
