Title:
AUTOMATIC-RESET STRUCTURE OF SLIDE OPERATION TYPE ELECTRICAL COMPONENT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2000315440
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To suppress discordant impact noises of a coil spring 5 generated when a slid moving body automatically returns, by providing respective buffer members to both end parts in the expansion and contraction direction of the coil spring.

In this automatic-reset structure of a slide operation type electrical component, one of protrusion members 2c, 2d relatively comes into a spring housing space 4a to compress a coil spring 5 when a moving body 4 is slidingly operated from a neutral position, and the moving body 4 automatically returns to the neutral position by resilient force of the coil spring 5 when the operation force is released. Both end parts in the expansion and contraction direction of the coil spring 5 are mounted with buffer members 6a, 6b made of elastic rubber or the like, while one end part in the longitudinal direction of the spring housing space 4a is mounted with a spring receiving member 7 having a recessed step part 7a. A front end part of one buffer member 6b is inserted into the recessed step part 7a.
