Transitional slide contact switch with twostage push-press switch

Abstract

The present invention relates to a transitional slide contact switch with a push-press switch, integrating the mechanism as follow, a slide mechanism having a plurality of slide fixed terminals and a slide contact pin for transferring the connection of the plurality of slide fixed terminals; a twostage press mechanism having a plurality of press fixed terminals and a butterfly movable contact pin facing to the press fixed terminals for transferring the connection of the plurality of press fixed terminals; an operation mechanism having a button for press operation and slide operation, and a slide block that may hold the button pressably and is equipped with a slide contact pin and drives the slide contact pin to slide on the plurality of slide fixed terminals when the button is slidely operated; a brake mechanism arranged between the slide block and the switch body side, and generating sound at each switching position between the slide fixed terminals; and a self-resetting mechanism for generating a force to reset the button to a neutral position when the button is slidely operated at least in one direction and driving the button and the slide block to reset to the neutral position together by the force when releasing the slide block.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a slide shift contact switch with a two-stage push switch, and more particularly to a slide shift contact switch with a two-stage push switch that is small, thin, has excellent operability, and is suitable for mounting on, for example, a digital camera. switch. Background technique [0002] As such a prior art, for example, a push slide displacement contact switch is known as follows. According to this prior art, the sliding contact switch function part and the push switch function part each use a coil spring as a spring member for reset, and are configured as a sliding contact type. Furthermore, it can function as a push switch and a slide-displacement contact switch by one button operation (for example, refer to Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-229781). [0003] In the prior art described in Patent Document 1, both the slide contact switch function unit and the push switch function u...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, there is a problem that the pressing stroke increases, the entire switch becomes larger, and it is difficult to obtain a good operating feel.

In addition, in recent electronic devices such as digital cameras that have diversified functions, it is required to differentiate the operation feeling for the switches of each function.

But above-mentioned prior art exists the problem that can't satisfy this requirement
