Title:
MULTIDIRECTIONAL SWITCH
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2016066513
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the number of components relatively to conventional examples by oscillating a multidirectional key in a plurality of directions only by using one driver.SOLUTION: A multidirectional switch including a multidirectional key 41 and a center key 42 includes a driver 39 that supports the multidirectional key 41 in such a manner that the multidirectional key can be freely oscillated, and a base 38 that supports the driver 39 in such a manner that the driver can be freely oscillated around an axis that is orthogonal with an oscillation axis of the multidirectional key 41 relative to the driver 39. The center key 42 is positioned in a central recess 41b that is surrounded by an operation part 41a of the multidirectional key 41, and held by the multidirectional key 41 in a vertically movable manner. The multidirectional key 41 can be oscillated by inserting and supporting a pair of shafts which are provided in one of the driver 39 and the multidirectional key 41 in a pair of holes which are provided in the other. The driver 39 can be oscillated by inserting and supporting a pair of shafts which are provided in one of the base 38 and the driver 39 in a pair of holes which are provided in the other. The pair of shafts or holes in the multidirectional key 41 are provided in a pair of protrusions 41f which are formed on a rear side of the operation part 41a.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
