In addition, the second switch section can be configured easily. Further, since the sliding contact 8 made of the long piece-like spring piece 8b is disposed above the periphery of the movable contact 4 made of the dome-shaped reversing spring, the first stage movable contact 4 and the second stage sliding contact are provided. Since the 8s are stacked, the size can be reduced without increasing the size of the switch.

このスライド部材7は、基台1の収納部1aにスライド部7aがスライド移動可能に収容されると共に、操作部7bが弾性部材9の弾圧力によって収納部1aの開口部1bから突出する方向へ付勢されている。この時、スライド部材7は、図5及び図6に示すように、中央に設けられた段差部からなる一対の係止部7c、7cが、基台1の収納部1a内壁面に設けられた一対の凹部1c、1cに係合された駆動板6の両翼部6b、6bの回動支持部6e、6eに当接されており、それ以上の突出が規制されている。   The slide member 7 is accommodated in the storage portion 1a of the base 1 so that the slide portion 7a is slidable, and the operation portion 7b protrudes from the opening 1b of the storage portion 1a due to the elastic force of the elastic member 9. It is energized. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the slide member 7 is provided with a pair of locking portions 7 c and 7 c each having a step portion provided in the center on the inner wall surface of the storage portion 1 a of the base 1. Abutting against the rotation support portions 6e and 6e of both wing portions 6b and 6b of the drive plate 6 engaged with the pair of recesses 1c and 1c, the further protrusion is restricted.

The lid portion 10a is provided with a U-shaped window hole 10c, and a long tongue piece 10d is provided at the center of the window hole 10c. The cover 10 is placed on the upper surface side of the base 1, and the distal end portions of the plurality of engaging legs 10 b are bent by a method such as caulking in the engaging recess 1 g provided at the square portion of the bottom surface of the base 1. By being engaged, the cover 10 is mounted on the upper surface side of the storage portion 1 a of the base 1. At this time, the first and second switch portions can be reliably switched by urging the slide member 4 toward the inner bottom surface of the storage portion 1a of the base 1 by the elasticity of the tongue piece 10d provided on the lid 10a. Done.

尚、この場合、図示はしないが、スライド部材4の下面側と収納部1aの内底面側の対向する位置に、凹凸部等からなるクリック用のカム部(クリック発生部)を形成することにより、第1のスイッチ部を構成する可動接点4の押圧後に、スライド部材4が駆動板6の摺動部6gを摺動してスライド方向へ移動する際にクリック感触が得られるようにすることができる。この場合には、第2のスイッチ部の入力時にもクリック感触が得られるので、2段スイッチのそれぞれのオン時が的確に確認でき、操作性が良好となる。   In this case, although not shown in the figure, by forming a click cam portion (click generation portion) composed of an uneven portion or the like at a position facing the lower surface side of the slide member 4 and the inner bottom surface side of the storage portion 1a. After the movable contact 4 constituting the first switch part is pressed, a click feeling can be obtained when the slide member 4 slides on the sliding part 6g of the drive plate 6 and moves in the sliding direction. it can. In this case, since a click feeling can be obtained even when the second switch unit is input, the on-time of each of the two-stage switches can be accurately confirmed, and the operability is improved.

次に、図3乃至図6を用いて本発明のスイッチ装置の動作を説明する。
まず、図3に示す初期状態では、スライド部材7は弾性部材9の弾圧力により図示右方向へ付勢されている。この時、スライド部材7の駆動突起7gは駆動板6の保持凹部6fに当接しており、駆動板6は第1のスイッチ部の可動接点4の膨出部4aが有する弾圧力により上方へ付勢され、可動接点4の膨出部4a頂部は第1の固定接点2の第1個別固定接点2bとは離間しており、第1のスイッチ部はオフ状態となっている。
Next, the operation of the switch device of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, in the initial state shown in FIG. 3, the slide member 7 is urged rightward in the drawing by the elastic force of the elastic member 9. At this time, the drive protrusion 7g of the slide member 7 is in contact with the holding recess 6f of the drive plate 6, and the drive plate 6 is attached upward by the elastic force of the bulging portion 4a of the movable contact 4 of the first switch portion. The top of the bulging portion 4a of the movable contact 4 is separated from the first individual fixed contact 2b of the first fixed contact 2, and the first switch portion is in an OFF state.

次に、図4に示すように、スライド部材7を図示左方向(矢印A方向)へ押圧操作すると、弾性部材9の付勢力に抗してスライド部材7が左方向に移動し、駆動突起7gが駆動板6の保持凹部6fから外れて先端側の摺動部6gに乗り上げるものとなる。この時、駆動板6は回動支持部6e、6eを支点とし反時計方向(図4では下側)に回動し、保持凹部6fの底部がシート部材5を介して可動接点4の膨出部4aを押圧することにより膨出部4aが下方へ反転し、膨出部4a頂部が第1個別固定接点2bと接触して、第1個別固定接点2bと第1共通固定接点2aが可動接点4を介して電気的に導通され第1のスイッチ部がオン状態となる。また、この時、可動接点4の膨出部4aが反転することによりクリック感触が得られる。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4, when the slide member 7 is pressed in the left direction (arrow A direction), the slide member 7 moves to the left against the urging force of the elastic member 9, and the drive protrusion 7g. Is removed from the holding recess 6f of the drive plate 6 and rides on the sliding portion 6g on the distal end side. At this time, the drive plate 6 rotates counterclockwise (lower side in FIG. 4) with the rotation support portions 6 e and 6 e as fulcrums, and the bottom of the holding recess 6 f bulges out the movable contact 4 via the sheet member 5. By pressing the portion 4a, the bulging portion 4a is reversed downward, the top of the bulging portion 4a contacts the first individual fixed contact 2b, and the first individual fixed contact 2b and the first common fixed contact 2a are movable contacts. 4 is electrically connected to the first switch section. At this time, a click feeling is obtained by inverting the bulging portion 4a of the movable contact 4.

尚、この時、図4では第2の固定接点3を構成する第2個別固定接点3bと摺動接点8のばね片8bとが、断面位置の関係で互いに接触したように示されているが、実際には、互いにスライド移動方向と直交する方向(図4では奥行き方向)にずれて配置されており、第2のスイッチ部はオフ状態となっている。   At this time, FIG. 4 shows that the second individual fixed contact 3b constituting the second fixed contact 3 and the spring piece 8b of the sliding contact 8 are in contact with each other due to the cross-sectional position. Actually, they are arranged so as to be shifted in the direction perpendicular to the slide movement direction (the depth direction in FIG. 4), and the second switch unit is in the OFF state.

次に、図示はしないが、この状態から、更にスライド部材7を左方向(図4では左方向)に押圧操作すると、更に弾性部材9の付勢力に抗してスライド部材7が左方向に移動し、スライド部材7の駆動突起7gが駆動板6の摺動部6gの面上を摺動する。この時、駆動板6は回動されずに、可動接点4が駆動板6の保持凹部6fの底部により押圧された状態が維持されるので、第1のスイッチ部はオン状態を維持している。   Next, although not shown, when the slide member 7 is further pressed to the left (leftward in FIG. 4) from this state, the slide member 7 further moves to the left against the biasing force of the elastic member 9. Then, the drive protrusion 7g of the slide member 7 slides on the surface of the sliding portion 6g of the drive plate 6. At this time, the drive plate 6 is not rotated, and the state where the movable contact 4 is pressed by the bottom of the holding recess 6f of the drive plate 6 is maintained, so the first switch portion is maintained in the ON state. .

そして、スライド部材7の下面側に固着された摺動接点8が、スライド部材7に従動して左方向へ移動され、摺動接点8の一対のばね片8b、8bが、第1スイッチ部のスライド方向後方に位置する収納部1aの内壁面の近傍の内底面に設けられた、第2のスイッチ部を構成する第2共通固定接点3a及び第2個別固定接点3bと接触して、第2共通固定接点3aと第2個別固定接点3bが摺動接点8介して電気的に導通され第2のスイッチ部がオン状態となる。この時、スライド部材7及び収納部1aの内底面に上述したクリック発生部を設けるようにすれば、第2のスイッチ部の入力時にもクリック感触が得られるものとなる。   Then, the sliding contact 8 fixed to the lower surface side of the slide member 7 is moved to the left by following the slide member 7, and the pair of spring pieces 8b, 8b of the slide contact 8 are connected to the first switch portion. In contact with the second common fixed contact 3a and the second individual fixed contact 3b constituting the second switch portion provided on the inner bottom surface in the vicinity of the inner wall surface of the storage portion 1a located rearward in the sliding direction, the second The common fixed contact 3a and the second individual fixed contact 3b are electrically connected via the sliding contact 8, and the second switch unit is turned on. At this time, if the above-described click generation portion is provided on the inner bottom surface of the slide member 7 and the storage portion 1a, a click feeling can be obtained even when the second switch portion is input.

上記した本発明の実施例によれば、スライド部材7のスライド移動で駆動する駆動板6を、スライド部材7と可動接点4との間に配置して、基台1に回動可能に保持し、この駆動板6の回動により可動接点4を押圧して第1の固定接点2と接触させると共に、この駆動板6に、可動接点4の押圧後に、この可動接点4と第1の固定接点2との接触を維持させた状態で、更にスライド部材7がスライド方向へ移動するのを許容する平板状の摺動部6gを設けるようにしたので、可動接点4が押圧されて第1の固定接点2とオンした後でも、更にスライド部材7をスライド移動できるので、スイッチの操作量を大きく確保できるため、操作性が向上され、使い勝手の良いスイッチ装置を提供できるものとなっている。
また、可動接点4の押圧後に、第1のスイッチ部がオンした状態のまま、スライド部材7の駆動突起7gが駆動板6の平板状の摺動部6gを摺動してスライド方向へ移動する際に、操作可能な第2のスイッチ部を設けたことから、一つのスイッチ装置で複数の入力が行える2段スイッチが簡単に得られるものとなっている。
According to the above-described embodiment of the present invention, the drive plate 6 that is driven by the sliding movement of the slide member 7 is disposed between the slide member 7 and the movable contact 4 and is rotatably held on the base 1. The movable contact 4 is pressed and brought into contact with the first fixed contact 2 by the rotation of the drive plate 6, and the movable contact 4 and the first fixed contact are contacted with the drive plate 6 after the movable contact 4 is pressed. Since the flat sliding portion 6g that allows the sliding member 7 to move in the sliding direction is further provided in a state where the contact with the movable contact 4 is maintained, the movable contact 4 is pressed and the first fixing is performed. Even after the contact 2 is turned on, the slide member 7 can be slid further, so that a large amount of operation of the switch can be ensured. Therefore, the operability is improved and an easy-to-use switch device can be provided.
Further, after the movable contact 4 is pressed, the driving projection 7g of the slide member 7 slides on the flat sliding portion 6g of the driving plate 6 and moves in the sliding direction while the first switch portion is turned on. In this case, since the second switch unit that can be operated is provided, a two-stage switch that can perform a plurality of inputs with a single switch device can be easily obtained.
