PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a switch structure of contactless type capable of accurately detecting the movement of magnets by means of magnetic elements and outputting different switch modes in compliance with the movement of the magnets. SOLUTION: A plurality of magnetic elements 13a, 13b are fixed to a substate 12, which is provided with slot-shaped first guide grooves 18a, 18b extending with the fixing positions used as start ends. Second guide grooves 19a, 19b, crossing the first guide grooves 18a, 18b substantially at the middle of the first guide grooves 18a, 18b, are formed in a slide member 16 displaced by rocking operation of a key-top 3. Magnets 21a, 21b are disposed, in a loose fit state, individually in gaps communicating between the guide grooves 18a, 18b and 19a, 19b. respectively. When the slide member 16 is displaced in a specific direction, only one of the magnets is moved in compliance with the displacement by the first guide grooves 18a, 18b along the second guide grooves 19a, 19b while the other magnet is not moved.
