As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional switch using pressurized conductive rubber includes a through-hole printed circuit board 4 with a contact pattern 1 on one side, a through-hole 2 formed on one part, and a conductive pattern 3 formed on the other side.
The pressurized conductive rubber 5 is placed on the side where the contact pattern 1 is provided, and the pressurized conductive rubber 5 corresponding to the contact part is placed on the side where the contact pattern 1 is provided.
It was designed to perform switching by applying pressure.

In this configuration, as a keyboard switch with high mounting density, it is necessary to use the through-hole printed circuit board 4 as described above, and the cost of this through-hole printed circuit board 4 is significantly higher than that of a printed circuit board with only a single-sided pattern, so it is not practical. This has been a major obstacle in the way of achieving this goal.

A printed circuit board 6 has a contact pattern 7 formed on one side by a method such as printing, and a pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8 is placed on the surface of the printed circuit board 6 on which the contact pattern 7 is formed. This pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8 is made by Japan Synthetic Rubber Co., Ltd. and is made of silicone rubber with nickel powder arranged at certain intervals in the vertical direction.

A housing 10 made of an insulating material and having a window 9 for pressurizing the pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8 corresponding to the contact portion of the contact pattern 7 is disposed on top of this, and the pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8 of this housing 10 is disposed. A protrusion 11 is provided at a portion where it is desired to conduct between the side contact patterns 7, and a conductive layer 12 such as metal foil is provided between the protrusions 11.

That is, the projecting portion 11 constantly applies pressure to the pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8 to bring the contact pattern 7 and the conductive layer 12 into a conductive state, thereby using the conductive layer 12 as a jumper.

Note that this conductive layer 12 is a pressurized conductive rubber sheet 8.
It may also be formed by printing, pasting, etc. on the housing 10 side.

As described above, the switch of the present invention has a conductive layer on the pressurized conductive rubber sheet or the housing, and a pressurizing protrusion on the housing, so a printed circuit board with a contact pattern formed on one side can be used. This makes it significantly cheaper than those using through-hole printed circuit boards, making the switch inexpensive and highly practical.
