Problems solved by technology

[0007] In this case, when the operation knob is tilted with respect to the rotation axis, the interval between the top surface of the operation knob and the touch panel becomes uneven
Touchpads usually use capacitive touchpads. If the distance between your finger and the surface of the touchpad is slightly different, correct output will not be possible. Therefore, if the distance between the top surface of the operation knob and the touchpad is uneven, your finger will approach Or when touching the top surface, the output from the touch panel becomes unstable, and unintentional malfunction may occur

Abstract

An input device (2) includes: a base member (5) including a hollow support body (11); and an operation body (6) supported so as to at least freely rotate relative to the hollow support body. The operation body includes an operation knob (20) formed in a cylindrical shape with a bottom and having a top surface portion (20c) and a plate-shaped capacitance type touch pad (7) provided on a back side of the top surface portion for detecting approach or contact of a finger with respect to the top surface portion. A support body (21) supporting the capacitance type touch pad is mounted on the base member and supports the capacitance type touch pad through an elastic body (13) which elastically urges the capacitance type touch pad against the top surface portion of the operation knob.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an input device having an operating body capable of at least a rotational operation, and more particularly to an input device including a touch panel on the rear side of the operating body for detecting approach or contact of a finger. Background technique [0002] As an input device installed on a dashboard or the like of a vehicle, there is known an input device in which an operation body capable of being rotated with respect to a base member is provided, and the operation body is provided with a cylindrical operation knob having a top surface portion. A touch panel is provided on the back side of the top surface portion constituting the operation knob to detect the approach or contact of the finger with respect to the top surface portion, so that the rotation operation of the operation knob and the approach or contact of the finger with respect to the top surface portion of the operation knob are performed. enter. A...
