PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a position switching device capable of detecting rotation around a first rotation axis and rotation around a second rotation axis of an operation member by a single sensor.SOLUTION: A position switching device comprises: a lever member 10 (operation member) which is rotatable around a first rotation axis X1 and rotatable around a second rotation axis X2; a rotary member 40 which rotates around the first rotation axis X1; a magnet 61 which is fixed to a magnet holding part 46 provided for the rotary member 40; a magnetic sensor 62 which is provided for a circuit board 50 opposing the magnet holding part 46; a contact part 451 provided for the rotary member 40; an inclined surface 161 which is provided for the lever member 10 so as to oppose the contact part 451 in a rotary direction around the first rotation axis X1 of the lever member 10, and inclined with respect to a plane surface orthogonal to an opposing direction to the contact part 451; and a torsion spring 70 which energizes the rotary member 40 to allow the contact part 451 to contact the inclined surface 161.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
