  In such a conventional remote control, when a transparent panel is provided and the light color of the light source is reflected on a transmission ring or the like when the power is turned ON / OFF, the transparent panel is provided on the front surface of the casing. However, there was a problem that the light color was reflected on the screen and the border between light and dark could not be clearly and clearly displayed.

  Accordingly, the present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and provides a wired remote controller that improves the visibility of power ON / OFF display by sharpening the border between light and darkness due to the color of light from a light source. With the goal.

  In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides a housing having a button mounting portion, a button attached to the button mounting portion for switching a circuit in the housing, and a front surface of the housing. In a wired remote control comprising a transparent panel and a light source provided inside the housing, the light source is disposed on the rear side of the button, the transparent panel has a cylindrical hole, and the button has the cylindrical hole. The light transmission prevention material which prevents that light permeate | transmits is arrange | positioned at the side part of the said cylinder hole, and it aims at achieving the intended objective by this.

  According to the present invention, since light leakage to the transparent panel is blocked by the light transmission preventing material, the light from the light source is prevented from excessively spreading around the button, and the bright and dark boundary line is clearly expressed. be able to.

  A wired remote controller according to the present invention includes a housing having a button mounting portion, a button attached to the button mounting portion for switching a circuit in the housing, a transparent panel provided on the front surface of the housing, In a wired remote control provided with a light source provided inside a housing, the light source is disposed on the rear side of the button, the transparent panel has a tube hole, the button is disposed in the tube hole, and the tube The light transmission prevention material which prevents that the light permeate | transmits is formed in the side part of the hole.

  As a result, the light transmission preventing material formed on the side surface portion of the cylindrical hole blocks light leakage to the transparent panel, so that the light from the light source is prevented from spreading excessively around the button, and the light / dark boundary The effect is that the lines are clearly displayed.

  Further, a configuration may be adopted in which a transmission ring that transmits light from the light source is provided around the button.

  Thereby, there is an effect that light from the light source is almost transmitted only through the transmission ring, and the bright and dark boundary line is further sharpened.

  A housing having a button mounting portion; a button attached to the button mounting portion for switching a circuit in the housing; a transparent panel provided on a front surface of the housing; and provided inside the housing. In the wired remote control comprising the light source, the light source is disposed on the rear side of the button, the transparent panel has a cylindrical hole, the button is disposed in the cylindrical hole, and the light source is disposed around the button. A configuration may be adopted in which a transmission ring that transmits light is provided, and a light transmission preventing material that prevents light from transmitting is formed on the outer side surface of the transmission ring.

  As a result, the light transmission preventing material formed on the outer side surface portion of the transmission ring blocks light leakage to the transparent panel, so that the light from the light source is transmitted almost only through the transmission ring, and the boundary between light and dark is sharp. There is an effect that.

  Further, the transmission ring and the button may be integrated.

  As a result, since the button and the transmission ring operate integrally, there is an effect that the area pressed by the finger is increased and the operability is improved.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1)
The wired remote controller according to the first embodiment is shown in FIGS.

  A main body 1 of the wired remote controller includes a transparent panel 4 and a housing 5. The transparent panel 4 is provided on the front surface of the housing 5. The main body 1 includes a display unit 3.

  The button 2 is attached to the button attachment portion 15 of the housing 5. The button 2 performs switching of the circuit 12 in the housing 5.

  A light source 13 such as an LED is provided inside the housing 5. The light source 13 is arranged behind the button 2. The transparent panel 4 has a cylindrical hole 21. The button 2 is disposed in the tube hole 21.

  For example, when operating a device connected to the wired remote controller, the button 2 is pressed with a finger to operate the device.

  When the power of the device is ON, the light source 13 is turned on, so that light leaks from the surroundings of the button 2 and the surroundings of the button 2 are turned on.

  When the power of the device is OFF, the area around the button 2 is turned off by turning off the light source 13.

  From these displays, the user can determine whether the device is operating or stopped.

  Further, the operation status of the device is displayed on the display unit 3. The user checks the display unit 3 to determine the operation status of the device.

  A mechanism for turning on the light source 13 will be described. By pressing the button 2 with a finger, the button joint 14 adjacent to the bottom surface of the button 2 moves. When the button joint portion 14 is moved, the circuit contact 12a mounted on the circuit 12 is further pressed to switch the circuit 12 and operate the device. As the device is operated, the light source 13 mounted on the circuit 12 is turned on.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the feature of this embodiment is that a light transmission preventing material 22 that prevents light from being transmitted through the cylindrical hole side surface portion 21 a of the transparent panel 4 is formed. The light transmission preventing material 22 is, for example, a paint or a thin seal that hardly transmits light.

  The light transmission preventing material 22 can prevent light from the light source 13 from leaking into the transparent panel 4.

  Thus, according to the wired remote controller of the present embodiment, the periphery of the button 2 can be brightened while preventing light from leaking to the transparent panel 4 by the light transmission preventing material 22.

  For this reason, it is possible to prevent light from the light source 13 from spreading excessively around the button 2, and to clearly express a bright / dark boundary line. In particular, it is possible to provide a wired remote controller that improves the visibility of the power ON / OFF display by clearly displaying the bright / dark boundary line of the device power ON / OFF display.

  In addition, it is preferable to provide a transmission ring 11 that transmits light from the light source 13 around the button 2. Thereby, when the light source 13 passes through the transmission ring 11, the light color of the light source 13 is reflected on the transmission ring 11. For this reason, a bright and dark boundary line can be expressed more clearly.

  The button 2 is preferably integrated with a transmission ring 11 on the outer periphery of the button 2. Thereby, the area pressed by the button 2 can be increased, and the operability can be improved.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4, without forming the light transmission preventing material 22 on the cylindrical hole side surface portion 21a, the light transmission preventing material 23 for preventing light from transmitting to the transmission ring outer side surface portion 11a is formed. Also good. In this case as well, the same effect can be achieved, but the light / dark boundary line can be further sharpened by forming the light transmission preventing material 23 directly on the transmission ring 11.

  Further, a light transmission preventing material may be formed on both the cylindrical hole side surface portion 21a and the transmission ring outer side surface portion 11a. According to this, the bright and dark boundary line can be further sharpened.

  The wired remote controller according to the present invention is useful as a remote controller for operating a device such as a heat exchange unit.
