Problems solved by technology

[0014] However, in the above-mentioned conventional multidirectional operation device, the opening 6A of the flat thin-plate-shaped packing 6 is pressed into the outer peripheral groove 4B of the operation button 4 fixed to the operation shaft portion 2A of the multidirectional operation switch 2 . Embedding and combining in the state, so the thickness of the liner 6 must be thinner relative to its groove width
In addition, there is a problem that a gap remains in the depth direction of the outer peripheral groove 4B (that is, in the diameter direction of the cylinder) at the fitting portion between the bottom of the outer peripheral groove 4B and the end of the opening 6A after fitting.

Abstract

A multidirectional operation device includes a multidirectional operation switch having an operating shaft extending upward, an operating knob attached on the operating shaft of the multidirectional operation, and an elastic body fixedly bonded to at least one of the multidirectional operation switch and the operating knob, the operating shaft being made airtight. Even when the operating shaft is pressed or bent, the isolation between the inside and outside of the elastic body is maintained, thereby making a multidirectional operation device small in size and excellent in dust and drip proofness.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an input operation unit constituting a mobile communication device, various miniaturized and multi-functional electronic devices, and particularly relates to an input operation unit provided with a multi-directional operation switch driven by a tilting operation or a pressing operation of the operation shaft portion. Multi-directional operating device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in the input operation parts of various electronic devices such as mobile phones, pagers, AV machines, game machines, etc., which have been miniaturized and functionalized, a large number of input operation parts equipped with functions that can be driven by tilting operation or pressing operation are installed. The multi-directional operation device of the multi-directional operation switch. [0003] Regarding the above-mentioned conventional multi-directional operation device, use Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 To illustr...
