【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, using a remote control transmitter as an example. FIG. 1 is a perspective view from the back side showing a state before a slide cover of a switch device according to an embodiment of the present invention is attached, and FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged side view of a front side which is partially cut away. It is a figure. The switch device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a switch device body 10 in which locking grooves 10b, 10b having a uniform semicircular cross section are formed on both side surfaces 10a, 10a and inner side plates 29, 29. The slide cover 20 is provided integrally with the ridges 29a, 29a facing each other, and the ridges 29a, 29a are fitted into the locking grooves 10b, 10b and mounted on the switch device body 10. However, the function switches 17 and 18 arranged corresponding to the switch rows 11 to 13 and 14 to 16 are provided on the slidable slide cover 20. This is different from the conventional one in that the mode of the three switch rows 11 to 13 and 14 to 16 is switched by pressing with the provided pressing protrusion 20a.

In the switch device body 10, each switch row is composed of four switches 11a to 16a, and six rows of switch rows 11 to 16 are arranged in a row, and function switching switches 17 are arranged at two locations. 18 and 18. Each of the function changeover switches 17 and 18 is located on one side of the switch device body 10 at two positions on a virtual straight line at a position slightly deviated from the end of each switch row, that is, the first row and the second row from the front side, respectively. The dome-shaped elastic members are arranged between the switch rows 11 and 12 of the row and between the switch rows 14 and 15 of the fourth and fifth rows, respectively, and project from the upper surface of the switch device body 10. When the dome-shaped elastic bodies 17a and 18a are pressed and deformed, they switch on, and when the elastic bodies 17a and 18a return to the dome shape, the switch is turned off. The corresponding switch 17 has three corresponding switch rows 11 to 13 on the front side, and the other function changeover switch 18 has three corresponding switch rows on the rear side corresponding thereto. The mode switching the switch columns 14 to 16.

The slide cover 20 includes a cover plate 28 that covers three rows of switches, and both side plates 29 and 29 integrally formed on both sides of the cover plate 28, and the switches covered by the cover plate 28. The apparatus main body 10 is provided with three pressing key rows 21 to 23 each of which consists of four rows for pressing the three switch rows. The pressing keys 21a to 23a of the pressing key rows 21 to 23 are vertically movably supported by an elastic sheet 24 integrally formed of the same material, and the elastic sheet 24 includes an inner supporting plate 26 and an outer supporting plate 27. It is supported by a support 25. Both support plates 26, 27 are formed with a through hole 26a and a through hole 27a through which the pressing portions of the press keys 21a-23a pass, and the elastic sheet 24 is sandwiched between the opposing surfaces of both support plates 26, 27. The support protrusion 26b and the support protrusion 27b are formed.

Further, the slide cover 20 is provided with the function switching switches 17 and 18 at a predetermined position within a sliding range from a position covering the first switch row 11 to a position covering the sixth switch row 16. A hemispherical pressing protrusion 20a for pressing the elastic bodies 17a, 18a is provided integrally with the inner support plate 26 at a position between the pressing key row 21 and the pressing key row 22. The press key row 23 includes one double key and two single keys.

In such a slide cover switching type switch device, the slide cover 20 is attached to the switch device main body 10 while elastically deforming the side plates 10a, 10a with the side plates 29, 29 from above in FIG. Then, the both convex strips 29a, 29a of the both side plates 29, 29 reach the corresponding locking grooves 10b, 10b and are fitted therein, and the slide cover 20 is slidably mounted on the switch device body 10. As shown by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 1, at the position where the slide cover 20 covers the switches belonging to the switch rows 11 to 13 from the first row to the third row, as shown in FIG. The pressing projection 20a presses only the function switching switch 17 between the first and second rows, and the switch rows from the first row to the third row covered with the slide cover 20. Each of the switches 11a to 13a of 11 to 13 is pressed through the corresponding pressing keys 21a to 23a, and the function switching switch 17 performs the function in the mode when it is turned on and is covered by the slide cover 20. The switches 14a to 16a of the switch rows 14 to 16 from the fourth row to the sixth row, which are not present, are directly pressed, and the other function switching switch 18 is off.

From this state, when the slide cover 20 slides by three rows to cover the switch rows 14 to 16 from the fourth row to the sixth row, the pressing protrusion 20a is located between the fourth row and the fifth row. Function switch 18 is pressed, and switches 14a to 16a of the switch rows 14 to 16 covered by the slide cover 20 from the 4th to 6th rows are pressed via the corresponding pressing keys 21a to 23a. Each of the switches 11 to 13 from the first row to the third row that are not covered with the slide cover 20 and perform the function in the mode when the other function switching switch 18 is turned on. When a to 13a are directly pressed and one of the function changeover switches 17 is off, the function in the mode is exhibited.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but can be applied to a switch device other than the remote control transmitter, and the function changeover switch may be provided at only one place or at three or more places. Of course, the number of pressing keys of the slide cover may be one row, two rows, four rows or more instead of three rows, and two or more consecutive keys of the slide cover may be used. Further, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the support for supporting the elastic sheet is provided with the double support plate, and the through holes and the support projections are formed in the double support plate, but instead of this, for example, the elastic sheet is used. The support may be constituted by a lattice-shaped frame that supports, and the present invention can be variously modified without departing from the scope of the invention.
