<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multiple-direction input electronic component which inputs by inclined operation of the operating part that is small in size and has a high resolution in an input direction. <P>SOLUTION: A resistance layer 16 having lead-out parts 16A, 16B, 16C of circular shape at three locations that are provided at the circular region 12 of an insulating film 11 having elasticity is covered by a movable contact 18 of dome-shape made of an elastic metal thin plate, and the position in desired direction at the upper part of the operating unit 26 provided on top of the dome-shape movable contact 18 is depressed and the operating unit 26 is made inclined, and the dome-shape movable contact 18 is made partially inverted and contacted with the resistance layer 16, and further depressed strongly, thereby the circular region 12 is elastically deformed, and the upper conductor layer 20 on the rear face of the resistance layer 16 is contacted with the lower part resistance layer 21 opposed to it, thereby the multiple-direction input electronic component is realized, which is small in size and has a high resolution in the input direction. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
