Abstract

PURPOSE:To stabilize the operation of a sliding lever and to eliminate the looseness of the sliding lever by a method wherein a part to be guided is provided farther than an operation knob against a moving piece, and the part to be guided is guided by a guiding part. CONSTITUTION:The part 14 to be guided is formed on a sliding lever 11, a support 4 having a long hole for sliding formed along the moving direction of the sliding lever 11 and a guiding part 6 formed along the moving direction of the sliding lever 11 and guides the part 14 to be guided, is provided and an operation knob 13 is positioned between a moving piece and the part 14 to be guided of the sliding lever 11. When the sliding lever 11 is slidingly moved, the part 14 to be guided is guided by the guiding part of the support 4 on the side of the guiding part 6 of the one side of the sliding lever 11, and the other side of the sliding lever 11 is supported by the part attached to the moving piece of a variable resistor 3, and the slide lever 11 is operated by the control knob 13 located between the guiding part 6 and the moving piece. As a result, the twisting rotation of a sliding piece can be prevented, the sliding lever 11 can be stabilized, and the direct application of force to the variable resistor 3 can also be prevented.
