しかしながら、特許文献１では、操作プレートの裏面から取入れた光を操作プレートの側部で内面に反射させ、反射した光を彫り込んだ文字部の側面に当てているため光の減衰が大きい。このため、文字部を見易くするためには光源の光量を大きくする必要があった。また、文字部の回りも光源の光が拡散して光る構成となっているので文字の識別性がよくなかった。 However, in Patent Document 1, the light taken in from the back surface of the operation plate is reflected to the inner surface at the side portion of the operation plate, and the reflected light is applied to the side surface of the engraved character portion, so that the light is greatly attenuated. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the light amount of the light source in order to make the character portion easy to see. Further, since the light of the light source diffuses and shines around the character portion, the distinguishability of the character is not good.
　この発明は上記課題を解決するためになされたもので、光を屈折させることなく簡単な構成で文字部を見易くすることを目的とする。 The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to make it easy to see a character portion with a simple structure without refracting light.

A lamp portion 5 is provided on the base plate 4, and the lamp portion 5 is turned on when the switch is turned on. An LED is used as the light source of the lamp unit 5.
図３は、図２におけるボタンキャップ３のＩＩＩ－ＩＩＩ線に沿う断面図を示している。
図３に示すように、ボタンキャップ３はベース部７とボタン部６とからなる。ベース部７は、この実施の形態では黒色に着色された樹脂素材を射出成形にて形成されている。また、中央部にランプ部５から照射された光を通す貫通孔７ａを有する。ボタン部６は、ベース部７の上面に透明の樹脂素材を一体成形されている。ボタン部６は、操作面６ｆの裏面に凹み部６ａがある。この凹み部６ａは、ベース部７の貫通孔７ａと同形状のものが数ミリメートル凹んで形成されている。 FIG. 3 shows a sectional view taken along line III-III of the button cap 3 in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, the button cap 3 includes a base portion 7 and a button portion 6. In this embodiment, the base portion 7 is formed by injection molding a resin material colored black. In addition, a through hole 7a that allows the light emitted from the lamp unit 5 to pass therethrough is provided in the central portion. The button portion 6 is integrally formed of a transparent resin material on the upper surface of the base portion 7. The button portion 6 has a recess 6a on the back surface of the operation surface 6f. The recessed portion 6a has the same shape as the through hole 7a of the base portion 7 and is recessed by several millimeters.
貫通孔７ａ及び凹み部６ａの形状は、この実施の形態では階床の上下方向を示す三角形の記号であるが、矢印または階床を表す文字等が形成される場合もある。凹み部６ａは、三角形、矢印等の形状あるいは文字を表す底面部６ｃと底面部６ｃの周囲から立設している側面６ｂとからなる。そして、貫通孔７ａと側面６ｂは面一となっている。底面部６ｃは、ほぼ平らな面であるが、まるみをもった曲面でもよい。また、底面部６ｃと側面６ｂの交わるエッジ部６ｄは、ほぼ丸みのない形状に形成されている。ランプ部５から照射された光は、ベース部７の貫通孔７ａを通って底面部６ｃとエッジ部６ｄおよび側面６ｂに照射される。 The shapes of the through hole 7a and the recessed portion 6a are triangular symbols indicating the vertical direction of the floor in this embodiment, but an arrow or a letter indicating the floor may be formed in some cases. The recessed portion 6a includes a bottom surface portion 6c representing a shape such as a triangle or an arrow or a character, and a side surface 6b standing upright from the periphery of the bottom surface portion 6c. The through hole 7a and the side surface 6b are flush with each other. The bottom surface portion 6c is a substantially flat surface, but may be a curved surface having a rounded shape. Further, the edge portion 6d where the bottom surface portion 6c and the side surface 6b intersect is formed in a substantially round shape. The light emitted from the lamp portion 5 passes through the through hole 7a of the base portion 7 and is emitted to the bottom surface portion 6c, the edge portion 6d and the side surface 6b.
また、ボタンキャップ３の内径部７ｂがランプ部５の側面５ａに挿入されている。そして、爪部７ｃが係止部５ｂに係止される。これによりボタンキャップ３はランプ部５に固定される。ボタンキャップ３を押下することで、ベース板４は本体２の内側を上下に摺動してスイッチが入る。 Further, the inner diameter portion 7b of the button cap 3 is inserted into the side surface 5a of the lamp portion 5. Then, the claw portion 7c is locked to the locking portion 5b. As a result, the button cap 3 is fixed to the lamp section 5. By pressing the button cap 3, the base plate 4 slides up and down inside the main body 2 and the switch is turned on.
上記実施の形態１により、以下の効果を得ることができる。
ボタンキャップ３と、本体２内に配置され、ボタンキャップ３を照らす光源と、を備えたエレベータの操作ボタンであって、ボタンキャップ３は、着色された樹脂素材を、光を通すための貫通孔７ａを設けて射出成形されたベース部７と、ベース部７の上面に透明の樹脂素材を一体成形されたボタン部６と、を備え、ボタン部６は、ベース部７側の貫通孔７ａ部分に凹み部６ａを形成しているので、光源から照射された光が凹み部６ａに当たり光る。これにより、凹み部６ａに形成した文字等がボタンキャップ３内に立体的に浮かび上がり、見易くなる。 The following effects can be obtained by the first embodiment.

The button portion 6 is a through hole 7a portion on the base portion 7 side. Since the concave portion 6a is formed in the concave portion 6a, the light emitted from the light source strikes the concave portion 6a and shines. As a result, the characters and the like formed in the recessed portion 6a are three-dimensionally floated in the button cap 3 and are easy to see.
また、凹み部６ａは、三角形、矢印等の形状あるいは文字に形成された底面部６ｃと、側面６ｂとで形成されるので、光源から照射される光が底面部６ｃと、底面部６ｃと側面６ｂとの接合部であるエッジ部６ｄにも当たるので、文字が光り明るくなり見易くなる。 Further, since the recessed portion 6a is formed by the bottom surface portion 6c formed in a shape such as a triangle or an arrow or in the shape of a letter and the side surface 6b, the light emitted from the light source is received by the bottom surface portion 6c, the bottom surface portion 6c and the side surface. Since the edge portion 6d, which is a joint portion with the portion 6b, also hits, the character becomes bright and bright, making it easy to see.
実施の形態２
図４は、この発明の実施の形態２を説明する図である。図４（ａ）はボタン６を操作面から見た図であり、図４（ｂ）は、図４（ａ）のＢ部の拡大図である。図中同一符号は同一部品を示し、説明を省略する。実施の形態１において凹み部を形成したことに加え、実施の形態２では凹み部に凹凸の表面処理を施している。他は実施の形態１と同じである。 Embodiment 2
FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4A is a view of the button 6 viewed from the operation surface, and FIG. 4B is an enlarged view of the B portion of FIG. 4A. In the figure, the same reference numerals indicate the same parts, and the description thereof is omitted. In addition to forming the recessed portion in the first embodiment, in the second embodiment, the recessed portion is subjected to uneven surface treatment. Others are the same as those in the first embodiment.
図４（ｂ）に示すように、凹み部６ａの側面６ｂに凹凸の表面処理の一形状であるノコギリ状の波形を形成している。この波形は、底面部６ｃからベース部７と接する部分まで形成されている。あるいは、貫通孔７ａ部分の表面にも波形が形成されていてもよい。この波形は形状が細かいので、波形を形成するのではなく、側面６ｂの表面を粗く表面処理するだけでもよい。このときの表面粗さは、Ｒａ１２．５より粗くてもよい。Ｒａは算術平均粗さであり、単位はマイクロメートルである。 As shown in FIG. 4B, a sawtooth waveform, which is a shape of the surface treatment of unevenness, is formed on the side surface 6b of the recess 6a. This corrugation is formed from the bottom surface portion 6c to the portion in contact with the base portion 7. Alternatively, corrugations may be formed on the surface of the through hole 7a. Since this corrugation has a fine shape, the corrugation may not be formed, but the surface of the side surface 6b may be roughened. The surface roughness at this time may be rougher than Ra12.5. Ra is the arithmetic mean roughness and the unit is micrometer.
上記実施の形態２により、以下の効果を得ることができる。
凹み部６ａの側面６ｂに凹凸の表面処理を形成しているので、底面部６ｃと側面６ｂの交わるエッジ部６ｄを実施の形態１に比べて長くすることができる。これにより、ランプ部５から照射された光の輝く部分が増えるので、より文字が見易くなる。また、側面６ｂも表面積が大きくなり、光の反射する面積が増えるのでさらに文字が見易くなる。 The following effects can be obtained by the second embodiment.
Since the uneven surface treatment is formed on the side surface 6b of the recess 6a, the edge portion 6d where the bottom surface portion 6c and the side surface 6b intersect can be made longer than in the first embodiment. As a result, the number of shining portions of the light emitted from the lamp unit 5 increases, so that the characters can be seen more easily. In addition, the side surface 6b also has a large surface area and an area where light is reflected increases, so that the characters can be seen more easily.
実施の形態３
実施の形態１では、ボタンキャップ３の貫通孔７ａと凹み部６ａは、ボタンキャップ３を一体成形する際に形成されている。実施の形態３では、ボタン部６とベース部７を同時に形成し、凹み部６ａと貫通孔７ａは切削加工にて形成する。参考とする図等は実施の形態１と変わらない。 Embodiment 3
In the first embodiment, the through hole 7a and the recess 6a of the button cap 3 are formed when the button cap 3 is integrally molded. In the third embodiment, the button portion 6 and the base portion 7 are formed at the same time, and the recessed portion 6a and the through hole 7a are formed by cutting. The reference figures and the like are the same as those in the first embodiment.
上記実施の形態３により、以下の効果を得ることができる。
凹み部６ａと貫通孔７ａを後に切削加工にて形成しているので、底面部６ｃと側面６ｂの交わるエッジ部分６ｄをより鋭い状態にすることができる。これは、金型を用いた成形の場合、型を抜くために角部をあまり鋭くできないことによる。エッジ部６ｄをより鋭い状態とすることができるので、ランプ部５から照射された光がより輝くため、文字、表示等がより見やすくなる。また、表示する文字・記号等の全ての金型を用意する必要もなくなる。 The following effects can be obtained by the third embodiment.
Since the recess 6a and the through hole 7a are formed later by cutting, the edge portion 6d where the bottom surface 6c and the side surface 6b intersect can be made sharper. This is because in the case of molding using a mold, the corners cannot be sharpened in order to remove the mold. Since the edge portion 6d can be in a sharper state, the light emitted from the lamp portion 5 is brighter, so that the characters, the display, and the like are easier to see. In addition, it is not necessary to prepare all molds for displaying characters and symbols.
実施の形態４
図５に実施の形態４によるボタンキャップの図を示す。図中同一符号は同一部品を示し、説明を省略する。
実施の形態４では、ベース部７とボタン部６の間にさらに中間層１０を設けている。他は実施の形態１と同じである。 Embodiment 4
FIG. 5 shows a view of the button cap according to the fourth embodiment. In the figure, the same reference numerals indicate the same parts, and the description thereof will be omitted.
In the fourth embodiment, the intermediate layer 10 is further provided between the base portion 7 and the button portion 6. Others are the same as those in the first embodiment.
図５に示す様に、ボタンキャップ３のベース部７とボタン部６の間にさらに中間層１０を設けている。中間層１０の色は、ベース部７よりも淡い色が着色されている。この実施の形態４では、ベース部７の濃色に対し、中間層１０は白色である。 As shown in FIG. 5, an intermediate layer 10 is further provided between the base portion 7 and the button portion 6 of the button cap 3. The color of the intermediate layer 10 is lighter than that of the base portion 7. In the fourth embodiment, the intermediate layer 10 is white with respect to the dark color of the base portion 7.
ここで、白色の樹脂は光を透してしまうため、例えば、ベース部７を白色にすると光源の光により白く光る。しかし、ベース部７を濃色とすることで光源の光を遮断するので、白色の中間層１０に光は届かない。これにより、実施の形態４では、ボタン部６は文字部以外には光が届かず、文字部以外は白色に見える。なお、貫通孔１０ａは、ベース部７の貫通孔７ａと同形状である。 Here, since the white resin transmits light, if the base portion 7 is white, for example, the light of the light source shines white. However, since the light of the light source is blocked by making the base portion 7 a dark color, the light does not reach the white intermediate layer 10. As a result, in the fourth embodiment, light does not reach the button portion 6 other than the character portion, and the button portion 6 looks white except the character portion. The through hole 10a has the same shape as the through hole 7a of the base portion 7.
上記実施の形態４により、以下の効果を得ることができる。
ベース部７とボタン部６との間に、ベース部より薄い色（白色）の樹脂素材の中間層１０を設けているので、文字部が明るく見えるとともに、文字部以外の操作面６ｆを白色にすることができる。これにより、白色の操作面６ｆに文字・記号等を立体的に表示することができる。 The following effects can be obtained by the fourth embodiment.
Since the intermediate layer 10 made of a resin material that is lighter in color (white) than the base portion is provided between the base portion 7 and the button portion 6, the character portion looks bright and the operation surface 6f other than the character portion is white. can do. As a result, it is possible to stereoscopically display characters, symbols and the like on the white operation surface 6f.
