A holding member 15 for holding is provided.

According to such a configuration, for example, the holding member 15 makes it easier, faster, or more accurate to align the relay portion 10a of the pushing member 10 with the switch 12 of the substrate 11 in the Z direction. Cheap.

Further, in the present embodiment, the housing 2 has a rear wall 2b (second wall) intersecting with the upper wall 2d, and the rear wall 2b is formed from between the base portion 8a and the outer surface 2d1 of the upper wall 2d. A drainage port 23 capable of discharging the infiltrated water and a rib 24 extending along the upper wall 2d on the opposite side of the upper wall 2d of the drainage port 23 are provided.

According to such a configuration, for example, the drain port 23 and the rib 24 can suppress the intrusion of water into the housing 2, and the switch 12 and the switch 12 caused by the intrusion of the water are mounted. The influence on the substrate 11 and the like is more likely to be suppressed.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been exemplified above, the above-described embodiment is an example and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The above-described embodiment can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, combinations, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. In addition, specifications such as each configuration and shape (structure, type, direction, type, size, length, width, thickness, height, number, arrangement, position, material, etc.) are changed as appropriate. Can be carried out.
