发明名称 Multidirectional switch device in which differences in tactile feel are reduced
摘要 A switch device including an operating member which includes a plurality of actuating sections, opposing corresponding spring sections, for operating their corresponding spring sections. By actuating the actuating sections, corresponding switches are switched. Ends of the actuating sections which oppose their corresponding spring sections are inclined in the outward direction of the operating member. The tilt angle of an actuating section which opposes its corresponding spring section which is not provided along with a switch is greater than the tilt angle of an actuating section which opposes its corresponding spring section which is provided along with its corresponding switch. In a conventional switch device, one or two switches are actuated depending on what portion of the operating member is pressed. Therefore, differences in the clicking characteristics are produced. This gives rise to the problem that an operator which operates the operating member experiences a different tactile feel when operating the operating member. The invention provides a switch device which provides uniform operability.
