Abstract (en)

A vehicle door latch device has a latch mechanism including a latch configured to engage with a striker provided on a vehicle body, and an operation mechanism configured to operate the latch mechanism. The operation mechanism includes an input lever configured to come in contact with an operation force transmission rod and to receive an operation force applied to an outside handle via the operation force transmission rod. The input lever includes a receiving portion having a shape cut out in an operating direction of the operation force transmission rod and configured to receive a load from the operation force transmission rod. The input lever has a clip assembled to the input lever. The clip is engaged with the operation force transmission rod. A direction of assembling the clip to the input lever is identical to the operating direction of the operation force transmission rod.
