A fuel cap has a cap main body, a cover with a handle, and a torque
mechanism. The torque mechanism includes a torque transmission unit and
click units. When the handle is rotated in a closing direction, torque is
transmitted to a cantilever spring of the torque mechanism. The
cantilever spring is deformed by rotation of the cover in the closing
direction. After the spring is deformed by a predetermined amount, in
response to rotation of the cover with respect to the cap main body by at
least a preset angle, the click units make a click sound. When the user
releases the handle, the spring force of the cantilever spring restores
the click units to their initial positions. The cap device has a torque
mechanism that has a simple structure and consists of a small number of
parts.
