Abstract

The invention provides a multidirectional input device capable of automatically resetting an operating body making a slide operation, with an excellent operability and high reliability. A barrier rib 10d provided in a chassis 10 is partitioned into a first hollow part 21 and a second hollow part 22, in which former, a circular coil spring 14 for automatically resetting an operating body 13 is built in, and in which latter, a detection means including a pair of sliders 15, 16 capable of sliding in directions crossing each other is built in. The operating body 13 is provided with a large-diameter part 13a arranged at the first hollow part 21, a protruded part 13b protruded from an outside opening 10b to be given an operating force, and a driving part 13c extended to the second hollow part 22 for driving the sliders 15, 16. At slide operation, the large-diameter part 13a pushes in the circular coil spring 14 in the sliding direction to extend (elastically deform) it.

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...
