Switching device

Abstract

The present invention provides a switching device capable of preventing an operating handle from falling off, improving assembly and reducing assembling processes. The switching device (1) comprises: an operating handle (3) for pressing operation; a support (2) inside of which is provided with sliding block holding portions of a sliding block (5) fixedly held with the operating handle (3) in a retractable manner; an annular coil antenna (4) sending starting radio waves for starting an external carrier; and a switching mechanism being ON/OFF according to retractable movement of the operating handle (3), wherein a clamping hole (5c) longer in the retractable direction is formed on the sliding block (5), the sliding block holding portions (2A) of the support (2) are provided with retractable movement clamping claws (2f) clamped in the clamping hole (5c) for limiting the operating handle (3), and the coil antenna (4) is provided with limiting portions (4C) positioned at outer sides of positions corresponding to the clamping claws (2f) of the sliding block holding portions (2A) and used for limiting the clamping claws (2f) from moving to the outer sides.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a switch device such as an engine start / stop switch provided on a vehicle dashboard. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a vehicle has been equipped with a starter ignition system that starts the engine based on an ID signal wirelessly transmitted from a portable device. In this starting ignition system, once the engine start / stop switch of the dashboard installed in the car room is operated, a request signal is sent from the vehicle's authentication device to the portable device, and the portable device that receives the request signal transmits to the vehicle's authentication device Own ID signal. In this way, the vehicle's authentication device compares the ID code included in the received ID signal with the ID code stored in advance, and when the two are consistent, the authentication is OK and the engine can be started, and the engine is started by operating the engine start / stop switch . [0003] In such a ...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, in the structure disclosed in Patent Document 1, the operating handle can be held only when the engaging claws of the bracket are engaged with the engaging holes formed in the operating handle. However, due to the amount of engaging claws, or the engaging portion When the surrounding strength is not sufficient, the operation handle or the bracket is warped or skewed due to the operation of the operation handle, and the engaging claw and the engaging hole are disengaged, causing the operation handle to fall off from the bracket.

For this reason, in order to prevent the engagement of the engagement claw and the engagement hole from being disengaged, the engagement amount of the engagement claw is increased, and the problem of lowering the assemblability occurs.
