Description

上記課題を解決するために、本発明の記録装置は、基板に取り付けられている光源と、光源の第１方向に並ぶように配置され、光源から出射される光が入射する第１導光部材と、第１導光部材の第１方向と交差する第２方向に第１導光部材と並行するように配置され、光源から第１導光部材へ入射した光が第１導光部材から出射されることによって照光されるボタン部材と、を具備するものである。
In order to solve the above problems, a recording apparatus of the present invention includes a light source attached to a substrate and a first light guide member that is arranged in a first direction of the light source and into which light emitted from the light source is incident . And arranged in parallel to the first light guide member in a second direction intersecting the first direction of the first light guide member, and light incident on the first light guide member from the light source is emitted from the first light guide member a button member that is particularly Accordingly illuminated is, those having a.

このように構成する場合には、第１導光部材は、基板に取り付けられている光源の第１方向に並ぶように配置される。そして、ボタン部材は、第１導光部材の第１方向と交差する第２方向に第１導光部材と並行するように配置される。そのため、基板と第１導光部材との間での薄型化が可能となる。それにより、基板とボタン部材との間での薄型化を図ることも可能となる。また、光源からの光は、第１導光部材に入射され、その第１導光部材から第１導光部材と並行するように配置されたボタン部材へ向けて光が出射される。そのため、ボタン部材において比較的広い面積を発光させることが可能となる。
When configured in this way, the first light guide members are arranged so as to be aligned in the first direction of the light source attached to the substrate. The button member is arranged so as to be parallel to the first light guide member in a second direction intersecting the first direction of the first light guide member. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the thickness between the substrate and the first light guide member. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the thickness between the substrate and the button member. The light from the light source is incident on the first light guide member, and the light is emitted from the first light guide member toward the button member arranged in parallel with the first light guide member . Therefore, it is possible to emit a relatively large area in the button member.

また、本発明の他の側面は、上述の発明において、光源は、基板のうちボタン部材が配置される空間に面する正面側とは反対の背面側に取り付けられていて、第１導光部材には、第２方向において基板の一部に重ねられる状態で配置されるオーバーラップ部が設けられていて、光源は、オーバーラップ部から第１導光部材に光を入射させる、ことが好ましい。
In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention, in the above-described invention, the light source is attached to the back side opposite to the front side facing the space in which the button member is arranged in the substrate. In the second direction , it is preferable that an overlap portion is provided so as to be overlapped with a part of the substrate in the second direction, and the light source causes light to enter the first light guide member from the overlap portion.

さらに、本発明の他の側面は、上述の発明において、基板は、切欠部を有し、第１導光部材には、切欠部に嵌め込まれる嵌込部と、嵌込部とオーバーラップ部との間に段差状の段差部と、が設けられている、ことが好ましい。
Further, according to another aspect of the present invention, in the above-described invention, the substrate has a cutout portion, and the first light guide member has a fitting portion fitted into the cutout portion, a fitting portion and an overlap portion. and the step-shaped step portion between, is provided, it is preferable.

このように構成する場合には、第１導光部材の嵌込部は、基板の切欠部に嵌め込まれる。そのため、基板と第１導光部材との間での薄型化が可能となる。また、段差部を利用して、第１導光部材の位置決めを行うことが可能となり、第１導光部材の取り付けの容易性が向上する。

When comprised in this way, the insertion part of a 1st light guide member is engage | inserted by the notch part of a board | substrate. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the thickness between the substrate and the first light guide member. Moreover, it becomes possible to position a 1st light guide member using a level | step-difference part, and the ease of attachment of a 1st light guide member improves.
