[Prior Art] As shown in Fig. 4, when the substrate 12 as a casing is formed of plastic or the like, a switch which is a fixed electrode of the center electrode 13 and the side electrode 14 is formed by insert molding. (Patent Document 1). In the switch 10, the center electrode 13 and the side electrode 14 are formed in the upper concave portion of the insulating substrate 12 by insert molding, and the bowl-shaped leaf spring 15 facing downward is disposed on the fixed electrodes, and is surrounded by the metal cover 20 The switch of the button 18 placed on the conductive leaf spring 15 is electrically connected to the side electrode 14 by pressing the conductive leaf spring 15 by the protrusion 19 of the button 18, and when the pressing is released, the conductivity is utilized. The restoring force of the leaf spring 15 causes the button 18 to be restored. [Problem to be Solved by the Invention] The switch 10 used in such a mobile phone or other small electronic device has a width of only 3 to 4 mm and a fixed electrode. The thickness is as thin as about 2 mm. Therefore, when the center electrode 13 (2) 1344162 and the side electrode 14 are integrally molded in the plastic molding of the substrate 12, as shown in Fig. 5 (the plastic is poured into the plastic). The resin coating 60 is formed on the substrate 12 and the metal electrode portion. More specifically, as shown in Fig. 5(a), when the gold is subjected to plastic molding at the lower corner portion due to a slight burr edge as shown in Fig. 5(a) There is less resin coverage in the boundary portion A having the metal electrode. However, the contact portion 14 continues to the terminal portion 14a, and the resin covering 60 occurs in the plastic boundary portion B, resulting in the so-called lateral leaf spring 15 The problem of poor contact. In the example shown in Fig. 5(a), since the contact portion 14b is bulged, the amount of the resin cover 60 is higher than the step of bulging the contact portion 14b by compression processing. Small The processing with high precision is extremely high. Here, as shown in Fig. 5(b), if the bending 14b is surely exposed, it is not necessary to perform the above-described compression. However, the plastic substrate 12 is embedded. The boundary line compression processing in the middle produces more resin coverage 60, resulting in a problem of poor contact with the conductive leaf spring 15. The present invention provides a switch that does not require compression processing and is electrically connected, and is a switch. [Means for Solving the Problem] a) or (b) The boundary of the 13 and 14 is the side of the electrode 14, so that the burr of the 14 end is from the substrate 1 2 of the side electrode 14. The side electrode 14 is electrically conductive and less processed by compression, but it is annoying because of the sudden. The processing is performed so that the contact portion is processed so that the processed portion is compared with the so-called side electrode Μ, and the extremely thin opening of the resin electrode can be eliminated. 5-(3) (3) 1344162 The switch according to the present invention is a central electrode which is insert-molded. And the side electrode is mounted in the casing, and the contact piece which is in contact with the side electrode at the end portion and which is in contact with the electrode by the forward and backward movement of the button surface is accommodated in the contact piece housing recess of the casing, and the contact is interposed therebetween. The switch that turns on and off between the center electrode and the side electrode by using the forward and backward movement of the button surface, wherein the side electrode is provided with: a side contact portion that constantly contacts the contact piece; and an integral part from the side contact portion A rising portion that is bent along an inner wall of the contact piece housing recess of the casing. More preferably, the concave portion is formed along the bent portion of the side contact portion and the rising portion. A horizontal portion may be formed by bending the opposite portion of the rising portion and the side contact portion. [Effects of the Invention] According to the first aspect of the patent application, the center electrode and the side electrode are attached to the casing by insert molding, and the end portion is constantly contacted with the side electrode, and the center portion and the above-mentioned center portion are moved forward and backward by the surface of the button. The contact piece that is separated by the electrode is housed in the contact piece housing recessed portion of the casing, and the switch that turns on and off the center electrode and the side electrode by the advancement and retreat operation of the button surface via the contact piece, the side electrode is provided with: a side contact portion that constantly contacts the contact piece; and a rising portion that is integrally bent from the side contact portion along the inner wall of the contact piece housing recess of the case body, so that resin is not generated at the side contact portion of the side electrode Coverage and can improve the on/off performance of the switch. In addition, since the -6-(4) (4) 1344162 riser that is integrally raised from the side contact portion is bent only and does not require compression processing, the switch used for the small electronic device is simple to manufacture and accurate. Changed even higher. According to the second aspect of the patent application, since the concave portion is formed along the bent portion of the side contact portion and the rising portion, the contact area between the side contact portion and the contact piece is increased, and even if the resin flows in from the rising portion side The resin stagnates and prevents the resin from flowing to the side contacts. According to the third aspect of the patent application, since the horizontal portion is formed by bending the opposite edge portion of the rising portion and the side surface contact portion, the resin can be surely prevented from flowing into the resin even when the resin is covered at the upper end portion of the rising portion. The inside of the riser. [Embodiment] [Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the center electrode and the side electrode are mounted in a casing by insert molding, and the end portion is constantly in contact with the side electrode and the button is used. In the forward and backward movement of the surface, the contact piece that is in contact with the electrode at the center portion is housed in the contact piece housing recess of the case, and the center piece and the side electrode are electrically connected and closed by the advancement and retreat operation of the button surface via the contact piece. switch. Further, the side electrode includes a side contact portion that constantly contacts the contact piece, and a rising portion that is integrally bent from the side contact portion along the inner wall of the contact piece housing recess of the case. A concave portion can be formed along the bent portion of the side contact portion and the rising portion. And/or the horizontal portion can be bent at the opposite edge portion (5) (5) 1344162 of the rising portion and the side contact portion. The object of the present invention can be more effectively achieved by this additional configuration. [Embodiment 1] An embodiment of the present invention will be described based on Figs. 1 to 3. In the third diagram (a), the switch 25 of the present invention is a case in which the casing 27 is integrally attached to the center electrode 28 and the side electrode 29 of the casing 27, and is accommodated in the contact piece housing recess 34 of the casing 27.

The side electrode 29 has the characteristic structure of the present invention, and forms a π-shape with the two side electrodes 29 and the terminal portions 28a integrated therewith at a predetermined interval, and the side contact portions 29b are from the bottom of the contact piece housing recess 34. The end faces of the continuous side walls are exposed in an L shape, and the terminal portions 29a project from the upper and lower surfaces of the casing 27 and are bent rearward in the terminal notches 35 portion in parallel with the upper and lower surfaces -8-(6) (6) 1344162 of the casing 27. A more detailed structure of the above-described side contact portion 29b will be described based on Fig. 2 . In the conventional example shown in Fig. 5 (a) or (b), the contact portion of the side electrode Mb is continuous until the terminal portion 14a is buried in the plastic substrate 110 at the boundary portion b. With respect to this, the basic shape of the side contact portion 29b of the present invention is as shown in Fig. 2(a). When the portion in contact with the fixing piece portion 38 of the contact piece 30 constitutes the horizontal side contact portion 29b, The starting portion 29c is integrally bent into an end surface L-shape. As a result, even if the resin portion 60 is formed at the boundary portion C' of the casing 17 at the upper end of the rising portion 29, it is transmitted to the inner surface of the rising portion 29c without flowing into the upper surface of the side contact portion 29b. . The bending point of the horizontal side contact portion 29b and the rising portion 29c is as shown in Fig. 2(b), and by forming the concave portion 29d, not only the contact area with the fixing piece portion 38 but also the resin is When the rising portion 29c side flows in, the resin can be stagnated and the resin can be prevented from flowing into the upper surface of the side contact portion 29b, and the upper end portion of the rising portion 29c can be bent to form the horizontal portion 29e as shown in Fig. 2(c). Further, even when the resin cover 60 is formed at the upper end portion of the rising portion 29c, it is prevented from flowing into the inner surface of the rising portion 2k. In Figs. 2(a), (b) and 4(c), the end portion A of the horizontal side contact portion 29 is parallel to the bottom of the contact piece housing recess 34, but Fig. 2(d) shows the bending process. A curved buried portion 29f is formed at the end portion A of the horizontal side contact 29b, and is buried in the bottom of the -9 - (7) (7) 1344162 of the contact piece housing recess 34, and the side contact portion 29b is The upper surface is formed to be slightly higher than the bottom of the contact piece housing recess 34. According to such a configuration, the resin covering 60 can be more reliably prevented at the boundary point A. The contact piece 30 is made of a metal plate having a length X width X thickness = 2.6 x 1.2 x 0.06 mm, and is formed into a downwardly facing bowl shape by cutting the rain ditch in the long direction. A movable piece 37 that is curved upward is formed in the center, and a fixing piece 38 that is bent downward is formed on both sides. When the contact piece 30 is housed in the contact piece housing recess 34 of the case 27, the fixing pieces on both sides are fixed. The 38 is placed on the side contact portion 29b of the side electrode 29 to be in constant electrical contact, and the top of the movable piece portion 37 is opposed to the center contact portion 28b of the center electrode 28 with a gap therebetween. The dust-proof sheet 31 is a flexible sheet having an adhesive, and the contact sheet 30 is housed in the contact sheet housing recess 34 of the case 27, and is adhered to the upper end surface of the case 27 with an adhesive. The button surface 32 is made of plastic, metal or the like, and the material is not particularly limited. The button portion 40 protrudes from the front side of the elongated thin plate-shaped guide body portion 39, and the conical pressing projection portion 41 is formed on the rear side. The button surface 32 is disposed such that the pressing protrusion 41 is located at the center of the dust sheet 31. The metal cover 33 is electrically conductive, and is punched and cut into a metal plate having a thickness of about 0.2 mm by a punching machine or the like, and is bent and formed in the center of the front surface portion 42 having substantially the same size as the dustproof sheet 31. The button portion 40 advances and retreats the button through hole 46, and the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the front portion 42 are bent rearward to form the top plate portion 43 and the bottom plate portion 44, respectively, and the front -10- (8) (8) 1344162 Both side portions of the face portion 42 are bent rearward to form the side plate portion 45, respectively. The width of the top plate portion 43 and the bottom plate portion 44 is the width of the guide body portion 39 and the pressing projection portion 41 of the button surface 32 as shown in Fig. 1 . In particular, as shown in FIG. 3, the bottom plate portion 44 is formed with two ridge portions 47 formed in the rear, and the guide main portion 39 of the button surface 32 is placed on the ridge portion 47 to make the surface of the button. The advancement and retreat of 32 is smooth, and a slight gap is formed between the fixed soldering edge 5 1 on the front side of the printed circuit board 26 to be described later to prevent solder flux from overflowing. The side plate portion 45 is formed with a positioning tab portion 48 that faces downward from the side of the bottom plate portion 44. The positioning tab portion 48 may also have a shape extending vertically downward, or may be bent horizontally outward as indicated by a two-dot chain line to form a surface identical to the bottom plate portion 44. The side plate portion 45 is formed into a thin and wide insertion piece 58 in the middle thereof, and can be fitted into the assembly groove 36 of the casing 27, and extended to the rear of the insertion piece 58 to expand the curved piece portion 49. The flared bent piece 49 is bent outwardly and has a projection 57 that is flush with the lower surface of the bottom plate portion 44 at the lower end of the front end portion. The assembly of each component having the above configuration will be described. In the casing 27, the terminal portion 28a of the center electrode 28 and the terminal portion 29a of the side electrode 29 which are integrally molded with the casing 27 are bent or cut upward, and the lower side is bent toward the rear.
