Hereinafter so that functional unit 20 be example and use Fig. 9-1～9-4 that the action of sliding operation type switch device 1 is introduced along the situation of arrow S1 direction slide.Fig. 9-the 1st shows that slide mass and functional unit are positioned at the amplification view of the state of primary position simultaneously.Fig. 9-the 2nd shows to make functional unit begin the amplification view of the 1st guide portion state of contact of slide and slide mass and bulldozing operation body from state shown in Fig. 9-1.Fig. 9-the 3rd shows the amplification view that carries out the state that the slide of functional unit and slide mass slide in the 1st guide portion of bulldozing operation body from state shown in Fig. 9-2.Fig. 9-the 4th shows to make the functional unit slide be positioned at the amplification view of the state on the 2nd guide portion to extreme position and slide mass from state shown in Fig. 9-3.

Shown in Fig. 9-1, when functional unit 20 was in primary position, slide mass 30 was in the state by

cam body

40,43 clampings.Under this state, the reset force of the reset force of a pair of

helical spring

41,42 and a pair of helical spring 44,45 (not showing in Fig. 9-1～9-4) is sent on the slide mass 30 by

cam body

40,43 respectively.Thus, functional unit 20 and slide mass 30 are urged along the direction of push switch 50 simultaneously, prevent that functional unit 20 from rocking with respect to housing 10.

Shown in Fig. 9-2, if functional unit 20 is resisting the reset force of a pair of

helical spring

41,42 that passes through slide mass 30 transmission, begin slide from primary position along arrow S1 direction, then slide mass 30 1 edge arrow S1 directions are pressed and are moved back cam body 40 and begin slide on one side, thus, contact with the 1st guide portion 92a with guide surface 40a.And slide mass 30 rotates on one side on bulldozing operation body 90 on one side when functional unit 20 slides and moves, or does not only rotate and move.

Shown in Fig. 9-3, be accompanied by the carrying out of the slide of functional unit 20, slide mass 30 1 edge arrow S1 directions are pressed and are moved back cam body 40, on one side allow slide mass 30 to move, on the 1st guide portion 92a, slide towards the direction opposite with the direction (arrow P direction) of the bulldozing operation of push switch 50 by the arm 24a of maintaining part 24 and 24b.Thus, the reset force that is sent to a pair of

helical spring

41,42 of slide mass 30 from cam body 40 increases, and that is to say, the power that applies of on the direction of the bulldozing operation of push switch 50 slide mass 30 being carried out the application of force increases.Follow this, slide mass 30 makes bulldozing operation body 90 rotate along the direction (arrow P direction) of the bulldozing operation of push switch 50, makes the elastic portion 52 of 90 pairs of push switches 50 of bulldozing operation body carry out bulldozing operation.Consequently, the movable contact site 53 of elastic portion 52 contacts with the 1st fixed contact 71, and the 1st fixed contact 71 and the 2nd fixed contact 73 are by conductive component 51 conductings.
