<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combination switch capable of determining a plurality of operation positions, even in a small size. <P>SOLUTION: A combination switch 2 includes: an operation lever 23 provided on a main body 20 so as to be operated in a first operation direction and a second operation direction; a first metal pattern 251 and a second metal pattern 252 formed at a second end part 25 of the operation lever 23; a first coil pattern 261 facing the first metal pattern 251; a second coil pattern 262 facing the second metal pattern 252; and a determination part 205 for determining the first operation direction using a first signal outputted on the basis of the first inductance of the first coil pattern 261 corresponding to the change of the area of an overlapping region 253, and determining the second operation direction using a second signal outputted on the basis of the second inductance of the second coil pattern 262 corresponding to the change of an interval W. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
