Title:
ROTATING-MANIPULATION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/086625
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a rotating-manipulation device provided with a rotating-manipulation member (10), and a rotation detection switch (14) that detects the direction and amount of the rotating-manipulation, wherein the rotation detection pitch of the rotation detection switch (14) can be reduced while assuring normal operation thereof. The rotating-manipulation member (10) comprises a plurality of switch driving sections (20) arranged in the circumference direction thereof. The rotation detection switch (14) comprises a detector (30); and a switch body (32) that holds the detector (30) movable in a first moving direction and a second moving direction, which are opposite directions of each other with respect to a prescribed origin position, and outputs a detection signal each time the detector (30) moves. The rotation detection switch (14) is arranged so as to take a posture that makes the moving direction of the detector (30) nearer to an orthogonal direction with respect to the rotating circumference direction of the rotating-manipulation member (10), rather than the rotating circumference direction thereof. Each of the switch driving sections (20) has a shape that moves the detector (30) for a prescribed distance or more in the first moving direction or the second moving direction, in accordance with the rotation of the rotating-manipulation member (10), and then releases the detector (30).
