Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2013105101
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To solve such a problem that, when a spring is compressed in changing a position, the spring may cause bending deformation inside a guide groove by inclination, repetitive pressing or the like in assembling.
The operation unit includes: a ball member; a recessed member having recesses corresponding to each of a plurality of stationary positions; a spring member energizing the ball member to a recess; and a guide member for guiding the spring member and the ball member in the direction of the recess. The guide member has a relief for preventing the bending deformation of the spring member when the ball member transfers to another recess.
