In a glove box device, a cylinder of a cylinder lock is fixed to an operating handle, a slide member switches over a locking state and an unlocking state of a locking mechanism in correspondence to sliding motion, and a connecting member is interposed between one end of the slide member and a rotor of the cylinder lock. The connecting member transmits a turning force of the rotor turning along with the operating handle to the slide member so as to cause the slide member to slide from a locking operation position to an unlocking operation position when the rotor is in the unlocking position, but the connecting member cuts off the transmission of the turning force between the slide member in the locking operation position and the rotor when the rotor is in the locking position. Thus, it is possible to reduce the number of components to simplify the structure, thereby reducing the cost and improving the operational feeling. Moreover, it is possible to reduce a gap between a design face of the operating handle and the cylinder lock, thereby improving the appearance.
