Title:
ROTATION OPERATING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/104793
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a rotation operating device disposed on a circuit board, wherein it is possible to detect rotation operations and to impart rotation operational feedback to an operator while avoiding the necessary surface area of the circuit board from drastically increasing. Specifically, provided is a rotation operating device provided with a rotatable rotation operating member (18), a rotation detection switch (20) which is disposed on a circuit board and which detects the rotation of the rotation operating member (18), and an operational feedback imparting mechanism (22) which imparts operational feedback to an operator in response to the rotation of the rotation operating member (18). The rotation operating member (18) has an inner circumference surface, which surrounds a space inside, and is disposed with both the rotation detection switch (20) and the operational feedback imparting mechanism (22) in the inside. The rotation operating member (18) is provided with a switch operating unit (60) which controls the rotation detection switch (20) in response to the rotation of the rotation operating member (18), and an operational feedback generating unit (62) which is formed on the inner circumference surface of the rotation operating member (18) on a position that is separated from the switch operating unit (60) and which actuates the operational feedback imparting mechanism (22) in response to the aforementioned rotation.
