Therefore, in this state, the second rubber dome 52A is pushed by the pressing portion 32 of the actuator 30, and a force is applied to the second rubber dome 52A, but the upper side surface 54f of the second rubber dome 52A and Since the shape is maintained by the rib portion 54g formed in the deformation portion 54d, the deformation of this portion is suppressed. Therefore, the upper surface 54b of the second rubber dome 52A is maintained substantially parallel to the XY plane.
- the bottom surface 32a of the depressed portion 32 of the actuator 30 is inclined with respect to the XY plane, that is, the X2 direction side is lower than the X1 direction side (Z2 direction side) It is inclined to become
- the deformation portion 54d of the second rubber dome 52A is also buckled by being pushed by the actuator 30A, and the movable contact provided on the lower portion 54e of the second rubber dome 52A.
- the portion 56 contacts the second fixed contact portion 72A provided on the substrate 60, and the second switch is turned on.
- the movement amount L1 is a displacement amount from when the operation unit is pressed to when the first switch is turned on
- the movement amount L2 is when the first switch is turned on. It is a displacement amount until the switch 2 is turned on.
- a rib portion 54g is formed on the upper side surface 54f and the deformed portion 54d on the side of the first rubber dome 51A to which a force is applied.
- the strength of this part is strong. Therefore, even if the upper surface 54b of the second rubber dome 52A is pushed by the bottom surface 32a of the pressing portion 32 of the actuator 30, the deformation portion 54d of the second rubber dome 52A is not deformed and the shape is maintained. Therefore, the upper surface 54b of the second rubber dome 52A is not inclined.
- the movement amount L1 and the movement amount L2 can be made substantially the same. Further, in this state, as shown in FIG. 16B, the deformation portion 54d of the second rubber dome 52A is not deformed, so the life of the second rubber dome 52A can be extended.
- the switch device in the present embodiment can easily recognize two-step operation feeling in the two-stage switch, and can have a long life.
- the rib portion 54g of the second rubber dome 52A may be provided only on the deformation portion 54d, and is provided only on the upper side surface 54f. It is also good. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, the rib portion 54 g may be provided only on the upper side surface 54 f.
- FIG. 18 is a top view of the rubber dome sheet
- FIG. 19 is a cross-sectional view cut along a dashed dotted line 18A-18B in FIG.
- the switch device in the present embodiment may have a thick portion in which the thickness of the portion corresponding to the rib portion is increased instead of forming the rib shape.
- the second rubber dome 52A is a portion of the upper side surface 54f and the deformation portion 54d in the X1-X2 direction on the side of the first rubber dome 51A.
- the thick portion 54 h may be formed.
- the thick portion 54h is formed to have the largest thickness in the X1-X2 direction, gradually becomes thinner as it is separated from the first rubber dome 51A, and is not formed in the Y1-Y2 direction.
- FIG. 20 is a top view of the rubber dome sheet
- FIG. 21 is a cross-sectional view cut along dashed dotted line 20A-20B in FIG. 20
- FIG. 22 is a cross-sectional view cut parallel to the XY plane. is there.
- thick portion 54h of second rubber dome 52A may be provided only on deformation portion 54d, and is provided only on upper side surface 54f. May be For example, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, a thick portion 54h may be provided only on the upper side surface 54f.
- FIG. 23 is a top view of the rubber dome sheet
