OPERATING BUTTON STRUCTURE

摘要

PURPOSE: An operating button structure is provided to improve an external appearance by minimizing a difference in diameter between a through-hole and a button part. CONSTITUTION: A fixed part(121) is fixed at an operating panel(110). A button part is inserted into a through-hole(12) formed at the operating panel. A contact point part(124) interworks with the button part for pressing an electric contact point, separated from the button part. An elastic part(127) connects the button part with the fixed part for being elastically transformed by pressing the button part. If pressing power is released, the elastic part returns the button part and the contact point part to the original positions. The elastic part has a curve part(126) curved in an operating direction of the button part to operate the button part in a formation direction of the through-hole.
