OPERATION DEVICE

摘要

Provided is an operating device with which the erroneous detection of depression operations can be prevented when tactile sensation is presented, without requiring a sophisticated control. This operating device (1) substantially includes a touch panel (2) that detects tracing on an operation screen; a depression mechanism unit (3) capable of a depression operation in the direction downward from a standard position of the touch panel (2) a push switch (5) that detects a depression operation via the depression mechanism (3), and a drive mechanism unit (7) capable of driving between the standard position of the touch panel (2) and a position thereabove.

主权项

1. An operating device, comprising:
a detecting portion to detect an operation of tracing on an operation screen by a user; a depression mechanism unit to allow a depression operation in a direction downward from a standard position of the detecting portion; a depression detecting portion to detect the depression operation via the depression mechanism unit; and a drive mechanism unit to allow driving of the detecting portion between the standard position of the detecting portion and a upward position therefrom, wherein the drive mechanism unit comprises a driving force generating portion to generate a driving force, an output shaft-side gear provided on an output shaft of the driving force generating portion, and a first gear engages with the output shaft-side gear and comprising a first raised portion to be coupled to a first link provided on the detecting portion.
