Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the above-mentioned conventional multi-directional input device, there is no reset mechanism for automatically returning the slide-operated operating body 4 to the initial position. When the next sliding operation is performed, it is almost impossible to make it slide toward the end, causing operability problems in game machines and the like.

Abstract

A high-reliability multi-directional input device capable of automatically returning an operating body that has been slid and operated, and having good operability, wherein a partition wall (10d) is provided in a casing (10) and is divided into a first hollow portion (21 ) and the second hollow part (22), while assembling the ring-shaped coil spring (14) for automatically resetting the operating body (13) in the first hollow part (21), it will include mutually orthogonal The detection mechanism of a pair of sliders (15, 16) sliding in the direction of the assembly is assembled in the second hollow part (22). The operating body (13) is provided with a large-diameter portion (13a) disposed in the first hollow portion (21), a protrusion (13b) protruding from the external opening (10b) to impart an operating force, and extending to the second hollow portion. (22) drives the driving part (13c) of the slider (15, 16), and the large-diameter part (13a) is pushed into the ring-shaped coil spring (14) in the sliding direction to make it stretch (elastically deformed) during sliding operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a multi-directional input device suitable for use in a game machine, a mobile phone, etc., and more particularly to a multi-directional input device capable of performing predetermined inputs by sliding operations. Background technique [0002] Figure 21 It is a cross-sectional view showing a conventional multi-directional input device capable of performing predetermined input by sliding an operation portion (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Figure 21 The shown multi-directional input device is mainly composed of a housing 1 formed by combining an insulating upper case 2 and a lower case 3, an operating body 4 slidably held on the housing 1, and a housing 4 held by the operating body 4. The first slider 5 and the second slider 6 that slide in the direction perpendicular to each other inside the housing 1 driven by the protruding portion 4a of the housing 1, the first slider 7 held on the first slider 5, and th...
