PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a light control device which secures a click feeling without increasing the number of components and has an improved electrostatic resistance, and can prevent temperature rise of the operating knob.
SOLUTION: The light control device 1 comprises a rotation type variable resistor 14 which has an operating shaft 14a and is used for control setting of the illumination; a device body 2, having a protruded part 20 through which, the operating shaft 14a is rotation freely inserted, making an insertion hole 4b having an inner peripheral face drawn near to the operating shaft 14a and the peripheral part of the insertion hole 4b protrude toward surface side, having a housing part 20a on its rear side, housing the variable resistor 14; the operating knob 24 mounted on the top end side of the operating shaft 14a, arranged in free rotation on the surface side of the device body 2 by housing the protruded part 20 at the recessed part 24a formed on the rear side; and a projection for click 24d having a projection protrusively arranged on the outer circumference of the protruded part 20, protrusively arranged at the inside face of the recessed part 24a of the operating knob 24 so as to be able to climb over the above projection.
