Title:
INPUT DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2018170080
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an input device with improved accuracy for determining a moving direction.SOLUTION: An input device has an operation part 10, a conversion part 20, a detection part 30, and a determination part 40. The operation part 10 is provided in a movable manner. The conversion part 20 has a power generation body for converting mechanical energy, which is obtained by the movement of the operation part 10, into electrical energy. The conversion part 20 outputs intermittent electrical energy from the mechanical energy supplied thereto. The detection part 30 is electrically connected to the conversion part 20 and outputs a detection signal based on the moving direction of the operation part 10. The determination part 40 is electrically connected to the detection part 30 and determines the moving direction of the operation part 10 on the basis of the detection signal.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
