- the operation protrusion 85 is rotatable with respect to the slide cover 30, and the operation protrusion 85 is connected to the operated element 1 of the detection switch 120. Since the spring was elastically urged in the direction of pressing 2, the projection of the operation projection 85 toward the detection switch 120 was increased to increase the operation projection 8 even if the clearance became large. 5 does not swing the operated element 1 2 2 of the detection switch 1 20, and conversely, if the clearance becomes small, the operation projection 85 rotates against the urging force, so that the slide cover It is possible to avoid problems such as hindering the operation of the actuator 30 and damaging the operation protrusion 85, the detection switch 120, and the like.
- FIG. 17 shows a modification in which the arrangement of the operation protrusion 85 and the detection switch 120 is changed.
- a mounting piece 88 protruding downward from the upper edge of the notch 83 of the structural member 80 is formed, and is opened rightward and downward on the right side of the mounting piece 88.
- a cutout recess 88a is formed, and an operation protrusion 85 having the same shape as described above is rotatably arranged in the cutout recess 88a. Then, torsion is applied to the shaft 85c of the operation projection 85, and the coil portion 87a of the coil spring 87 is fitted outside.
- One arm 87 b of the torsion coil panel 87 is elastically contacted with the panel hooking portion 85 d of the operation projection 85, and the other arm 87 c is elastically contacted with the left rear surface of the cutout recess 88 a. Therefore, the operation protrusion 85 is urged by the torsion coil panel 87 in the clockwise direction in FIG. 17 (see the arrow CW), and the rotation of the operation protrusion 85 in the clockwise direction is performed by the main portion 85a. It stops when it comes into contact with the left rear surface of the cutout recess 88a, and is held in the state shown in FIG.
- the detection switch 120 is mounted on a substrate disposed in the main body 20, and the operator 122 is projected leftward from the case body 121, and the detection switch 122 is mounted on the board.
- the pressing surface 122 a is opposed to the pressing surface 85 e of the operation projection 85 from below.
- Such a configuration shown in FIG. 17 functions in the same manner as described above.
- the operation protrusion 85 does not swing the operated member 122 of the detection switch 120, and conversely, even if the clearance becomes small, the operation protrusion 85 acts on the biasing force of the torsion coil panel 87.
- By rotating in opposition to this it is possible to avoid problems that the operation of the slide cover 30 is obstructed and that the operation protrusion 85, the detection switch 120, and the like are damaged.
- the operation protrusion can also be implemented in the form (modification) shown in FIG.
- the operation protrusion 140 is formed by bending and forming a thin panel-shaped panel material.
- the mounting portion 141, the pressing surface 144, the sliding surface 144, and the auxiliary The parts 144 are continuously and integrally formed.

- the sliding surface 1 4 3 faces upward from the upper end of the pressing surface 1 4 2
- an auxiliary part 144 extends obliquely upward and forward from the upper end of the sliding surface 144.
- the clearance between the operation protrusion 140 and the detection switch 120 may be slightly affected by the dimensional accuracy and assembly error of parts. Even if there is such a variation, the variation can be absorbed and the operated element 122 of the detection switch 120 can be reliably operated. In other words, by increasing the amount of protrusion of the operation protrusion 140 toward the detection switch 120, the operation protrusion 140 can be controlled by the operated member 1 of the detection switch 120 even if the clearance becomes large. Even if the clearance is reduced, the operation projections 140 are bent by the elasticity of the panel material, which hinders the operation of the slide cover 30 and prevents the operation projections 14 It is possible to avoid such a problem that 0 or the detection switch 120 is damaged.
