在另一实施例中，所述推动件71的平面部715为圆形或多边形，其面积小于或等于第一操作件31的圆盘状凸缘313的面积，大于或等于第一操作件31的滑动量。该实施例适用于没有第二操作件33的情况。
在一实施例中，所述接触板72的顶面所在的平面低于推动件71的顶面所在的顶面，或二平面相平齐。二平面之间的间距为0mm~2mm。
在一实施例中，所述接触板72的面积是感应接点337的伸出的区域的直径与第二操作件33的移动量之和的两倍以上。所述第二操作件33的在任一侧的移动量为1~3mm，优选为2mm。
所述接触板72的外周的任意位置延伸设置有一弹性的接触臂721，所述接触臂721与电路板77接触，接触臂721与第二操作件33的感应接点337做电性导通。
所述接触臂721穿过推动件71后，可与接触信号输入端7738连接。
所述感应接点337伸出管部333的部分可与接触板72接触，即使第二操作件33在转动的过程中，所述感应接点337也至少与接触板72的边缘接触。当人手触摸或按压本体331时，由于本体331的材质为金属，可与人手之间产生静电，静电会通过感应接点337传递至接触板72，再通过接触臂721传递至接触信号输入端7738，最后由接触信号输出端7739输出接触信号。
所述电路板77包括与第一滑动件平行配置的基板771和设于基板771的导电电路773。所述电路板77可为柔性电路板。基板771可为聚酰亚胺材质。聚酰亚胺（PI，Polyimide）具有优良的耐高低温性、电气绝缘性、粘结性、耐辐射性以及耐介质性，能在-269℃～280℃的温度范围内长期使用，短时可达到400℃的高温，便于加工和使用。
所述基板771包括环形部772、与位于环形部772同心且平行设置的平台部775、连接环形部772和平台部775的倾斜部774、及直线部分776。所述平台部775低于环形部772。
所述环形部772形成有第五开口7721。在一实施例中，所述第二支撑件19位于五开口7721中。
所述导电电路773包括开关信号输入端7731、开关信号输出端7732、接地端7733、第一固定接点7734、X方向信号输出端7735、第二固定接点7736、Y方向信号输出端7737、接触信号输入端7738、接触信号输出端7739、电源端7740。X方向与Y方向垂直。
所述开关信号输出端7732、接地端7733、X方向信号输出端7735、Y方向信号输出端7737、接触信号输出端7739、电源端7740设于直线部分776。所述第一固定接点7734、第二固定接点7736、接触信号输入端7738设于环行部772。所述开关信号输入端7731设于平台部775，
所述凸台713与开关信号输入端7731相对设置，或接触设置。所述第一支撑件17用于将被所述线圈弹簧74推起的推动件71保持在上限位置。
当推动/移动所述第一操作件31和/或第二操作件33时，所述第一操作件31带动正交设置的第二滑动件53和第三滑动件55稳定地沿X方向和Y方向滑动，其中，X方向垂直于Y方向。同时，与第二滑动件53和第三滑动件55连接的第一可动接点73和第二可动接点75也一并稳定地沿X方向和Y方向滑动。由于第一可动接点73和第二可动接点75分别与第一固定接点7334和第二固定接点7336连接，使得第二滑动件53和第三滑动件55的滑动位置的输出信号可通过第一固定接点7334和第二固定接点7336输入，并由X方向信号输出端7735和Y方向信号输出端7737输出控制信号，从而能够实现精确控制位移精度。由于若干弹片52交叉地设于第一滑动件51的外周缘，使得所述第一操作件31和第二操作件33可于水平360度全方向的范围内滑动，并提供使第一操作件31和第二操作件33回到原点位置的作用力。
当按压所述第一操作件31和/或第二操作件33时，所述第一操作件31和/或第二操作件33向下移动，穿过第二开口531、第三开口551、第四开口195并，并带动推动件71一并向下移动，推动件71的凸台713和/或凸台713会接触到圆顶开关79，从而生成开关信号，开关信号再通过开关信号输出端7732输出。其中，在第一滑动件51的水平360度全方向的范围内下压第一操作件31来触发圆顶开关79，从而生成开关信号，开关信号再通过开关信号输出端7732输出。
本申请还提供一种手柄。所述手柄包括所述多方向输入装置100。由于该手柄采用了上述所有实施例的全部技术方案，因此至少具有上述实施例的技术方案所带来的所有有益效果，在此不再一一赘述。
本申请还提供一种游戏机。所述游戏机包括所述手柄。由于该游戏机采用了上述所有实施例的全部技术方案，因此至少具有上述实施例的技术方案所带来的所有有益效果，在此不再一一赘述。
