Therefore, even if the traction amount of the operation wire 27 becomes large and the wire return force becomes strong, the contact force is gradually increased by the inclined wall surface 73t, and the magnitude of the force that the operation handle 51 tries to return can be dealt with. As a result, the operation handle 51 is held no matter where the operation position is, and stable operation becomes possible.

- the sliding portion corresponds to the increase in the traction amount of the first sliding portion 71 in which the contact pressure with respect to the wire holding portion 56 is substantially constant and the contact pressure with respect to the wire holding portion 56 of the operation wire 27. Since the second sliding portion 72 having an inclined structure is included, the frictional force can be adjusted separately by the two sliding portions, and the frictional force can be easily adjusted. Therefore, a stable frictional force can be generated, and even if the wire return force becomes stronger due to the large traction amount of the operation wire 27, the operation handle 51 can be reliably held and the operation position of the operation handle 51 is located. Stable operation is possible even if it is present.
