Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a push button device and a portable telephone radio that can be miniaturized while restraining an erroneous operation caused by pushing adjacent buttons at the same time. SOLUTION: Because a transmission button 15, a retransmission button 16 and a finish button 17 are arranged in a form adjacent to and abutting on one another, the total occupying area of the transmission button 15, the retransmission button 16 and the finish button 17 is reduced even if the occupying area of each of the buttons is not reduced. Additionally, since the depression pressure required for the operation of one of the adjacent push buttons is one and a half times as much as that of the other, the adjacent buttons can be distinguished by the sense of touch and an erroneous operation caused by pushing the adjacent push buttons at the same time can be restrained.
