[0028] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Here, an example will be described in which the present invention is applied to a zoom demand. As described above, the zoom demand is an operation device that remotely controls the zoom of a broadcast lens. The zoom demand is an example of an operation device. Also, the broadcast lens is an example of a lens device and an electronic device.

[0030] FIG. 1 is a top view showing an example of a zoom demand to which the present invention is applied. FIG. 2 is a right side view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a left side view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 5 is a front view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 6 is a rear view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1 as viewed from the top side. FIG. 8 is a perspective view of the zoom demand shown in FIG. 1 as viewed from the bottom side.

[0031] Generally, the zoom demand 1 is attached to a pan rod extending from a camera head when in use. The pan rod is a rod-shaped operating member for panning and / or tilting the camera head.

[0032] [External appearance] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, a zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment includes a main body 10, a rod-shaped grip 2 extending from the main body 10, and a thumb ring 3.

[0033] The grip 2 is a holding portion of the zoom demand 1. A user holds the grip 2 to perform various operations of the zoom demand 1. In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the grip 2 has a round bar shape.

[0034] The thumb ring 3 is a zoom operating member. The thumb ring 3 is provided at the connection between the main body 10 and the grip 2. The thumb ring 3 is swung around the axis of the grip 2. More specifically, it is swung around the axis of the grip 2 within a movable range. The movable range is set within a range of a predetermined rotation angle in both the clockwise and counterclockwise directions with a neutral point as the base. During operation, a biasing force in the direction opposite to the operation direction is applied to the thumb ring 3 by a built-in biasing mechanism. When the operating force is released, the thumb ring 3 automatically returns to the neutral point due to the action of the biasing mechanism.

[0035] The thumb ring 3 has a ring-like shape and has a groove-like recess 3A extending along the axial direction on its outer circumferential surface. The recess 3A has an arc-like shape in a cross section perpendicular to the axis Z of the grip 2. The arc-like surface in the recess 3A constitutes an operation surface 3a of the thumb ring 3. A user places the thumb of the hand holding the grip 2 on the operation surface 3a to operate the thumb ring 3. In other words, the operation surface 3a of the thumb ring 3 is the surface on which the thumb is placed when operating the thumb ring 3. The thumb ring 3 is an example of an operation unit.

[0036] When the thumb ring 3 is positioned at the neutral point, the surface on which the operation surface 3a of the thumb ring 3 is positioned constitutes the upper surface of the zoom demand 1. All of Figs. 1 to 8 show a state in which the thumb ring 3 is positioned at the neutral point.

[0037] For convenience, hereinafter, the direction of axis Z of grip 2 is defined as the front-rear direction of zoom demand 1. Also, as shown in Fig. 5, in a plane perpendicular to axis Z of grip 2, the direction of horizontal axis X is defined as the left-right direction of zoom demand 1, and the direction of vertical axis Y is defined as the up-down direction of zoom demand 1. The left-right direction is synonymous with the horizontal direction. Also, the up-down direction is synonymous with the vertical direction.

[0038] The main body 10 is an example of a main body portion. The main body 10 is configured with approximately four surfaces around the periphery. That is, it is configured with an upper surface 10T, a lower surface 10B, a right side surface 10R, and a left side surface 10L. The upper surface 10T is the surface on which the operating surface 3a of the thumb ring 3 is located. The main body 10 has four peripheral surfaces each having a shape whose width increases from the base end side to the tip end side along the axis Z of the grip 2. That is, it has a truncated cone shape. More specifically, it has a composite shape in which the upper half has a quadrangular truncated cone shape and the lower half has a circular truncated cone shape.

[0039] The base end here refers to the end (first end) on the grip side (holding part side) in the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2. The tip end refers to the end (second end) on the opposite side to the grip 2 in the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0040] The upper half of the main body 10 has a quadrangular pyramid shape, and therefore the top surface 10T has a trapezoidal shape when viewed from above, as shown in Fig. 1. More specifically, the width increases horizontally from the base end side (first end side) to the tip end side (second end side), and the trapezoidal shape is symmetrical with respect to the axis Z of the grip 2. The width of the base end side of the top surface 10T corresponds to the outer diameter (width in the horizontal direction) of the thumb ring 3, as shown in Fig. 1. In other words, the top surface 10T of the main body 10 is configured so that the width increases uniformly from the base end side to the tip end side, based on the outer diameter of the thumb ring 3.

[0041] As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 has an upward inclination from the base end side to the tip end side in a side view. The position of the base end of the upper surface 10T (the position in the vertical direction of the zoom demand 1) is set at a position lower than the position of the operation surface 3a of the thumb ring 3 (the position of the center of the operation surface 3a when the thumb ring 3 is located at the neutral point). As an example, the inclination angle α2 of the inclination of the upper surface 10T is 11.8°. It is preferable that the inclination angle α2 of the inclination of the upper surface 10T is set within a range of ±3°. Note that the inclination angle α2 here is the inclination angle (angle) with respect to the axis Z of the grip 3. The inclination of the upper surface 10T is an example of a second inclination.

[0042] Since the top surface 10T has a trapezoidal shape, the right side surface 10R and the left side surface 10L of the main body 10 have a predetermined inclination angle α1 in top view as shown in FIG. 1. The inclination angle of the right side surface 10R and the left side surface 10L is an example of a first inclination. The right side surface 10R and the left side surface 10L form a surface that is continuous with the outer circumferential surface of the thumb ring 3 in a state where there is almost no step (a state where there is substantially no step) with respect to the neutral point. This allows the user to smoothly extend his / her fingers toward the main body 10 while holding the grip 2 (see FIG. 11). As an example, the inclination angle α1 of the right side surface 10R and the left side surface 10L is 11.8°. That is, in the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the inclination angle of the top surface 10T of the main body 10 and the inclination angle of the side surfaces on both the left and right sides have the same inclination angle. It is preferable to set the inclination angle α1 of the right side surface 10R and the left side surface 10L within a range of ±3°. The inclination angle α1 here is the inclination angle (angle) of the grip 3 with respect to the axis Z.

[0043] 2 and 3, the lower surface 10B of the main body 10 also has an inclination. The inclination of the lower surface 10B is a downward inclination from the base end to the tip end. Since the lower half of the main body 10 has a truncated cone shape, the lower surface 10B of the main body 10 is composed of an arc-shaped surface.

[0044] A protrusion 11 is provided at the base end of the top surface 10T of the main body 10. The protrusion 11 has a wedge shape starting from the base end of the top surface 10T, and has an inclined surface 12 that inclines upward from the base end side toward the tip end side. The inclined surface 12 has an inclination angle larger than that of the top surface 10T of the main body 10, and is disposed so as to connect to the operating surface 3a of the thumb ring 3 located at the neutral point. As an example, the inclination angle β of the inclined surface 12 of the protrusion 11 is 50°. It is preferable that the inclination angle β of the inclined surface 12 of the protrusion 11 is set within a range of ±3°. Note that the inclination angle β here is the inclination angle (angle) with respect to the axis Z of the grip 3.

[0045] The tip of the main body 10 is provided with a tip connection part 14. The tip connection part 14 mainly functions as a connection part to the bread bar. The tip connection part 14 is provided with a chrysanthemum seat 15. The chrysanthemum seat 15 has a through hole in the center. The through hole of the chrysanthemum seat 15 is used as a hole for passing a clamp screw 16 through.

[0046] 1 to 8 show an example in which the zoom demand 1 is connected to a pan bar via an arm 100. The arm 100 has a cylindrical shape with an open tip, and has a connection part 101 at the base end. The connection part 101 is provided with a chrysanthemum seat 102. A screw hole into which the clamp screw 16 fits is provided at the center of the chrysanthemum seat 102. The arm 100 has a slit 103 at the tip, and is configured so that the tip portion can be expanded and contracted in the radial direction by the action of the slit 103. A clamp ring 104 is provided at the tip of the arm 100. The inner diameter of the clamp ring 104 expands and contracts by rotating a clamp lever 104A. The arm 100 is fixed to the pan bar by inserting a pan bar into the inside from the open tip and tightening the clamp ring 104. The zoom demand 1 is attached to the arm 100 by engaging the chrysanthemum seat 15 of the tip connection part 14 with the chrysanthemum seat 102 of the arm 100 and fixing with a clamp screw 16. Fixing with the clamp screw 16 is performed by passing the clamp screw 16 through a through hole provided in the chrysanthemum seat 15 on the tip connection part 14 side and fitting the clamp screw 16 into a screw hole provided in the chrysanthemum seat 102 on the arm 100 side. The attachment angle of the zoom demand 1 with respect to the arm 100 can be changed by changing the position where the chrysanthemum seat is engaged.

[0047] The main body 10 is further provided with a right side connection part 17 on the right side 10R, and a left side connection part 18 on the left side 10L. The right side connection part 17 and the left side connection part 18 are both used as connection parts for the pan bar, as well as attachment parts for various accessories. The right side connection part 17 and the left side connection part 18 are both cylindrical protrusions that protrude from the right side 10R and the left side 10L of the main body 10. The tips of the right side connection part 17 and the left side connection part 18 are both provided with chrysanthemum seats 17A, 18A. Screw holes 17B, 18B are provided in the centers of the chrysanthemum seats 17A, 18A.

[0048] A connector connection portion 19 is provided on the lower surface 10B of the main body 10. The connector connection portion 19 is disposed as a convex portion shaped like a quadrangular pyramid protruding from the lower surface 10B of the main body 10. As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the lower surface of the connector connection portion 19 has the same inclination as the lower surface 10B of the main body 10 in side view. A connector connection port 20 is provided on the end surface on the tip side of the connector connection portion 19. A connector provided on a connection cable (not shown) is connected to the connection port 20. This connection cable is a cable that connects the broadcast lens (not shown), which is the object of operation, to the zoom demand 1.

[0049] 9 is an explanatory diagram of the insertion and removal directions of the connector, in which (A) is a view from the right side of the main body 10, and (B) is a view from below the main body 10.

[0050] As shown in FIG. 1A, in the connector connection portion 19, the axis C of the connector insertion / removal direction at the connection port 20 has a predetermined inclination angle α3 (third inclination) with respect to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2 in a side view. That is, in the up-down direction, there is an inclination with respect to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2. This inclination is set obliquely downward from the base end side toward the tip end side with respect to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2. As an example, the inclination angle α3 is 13.5°. It is preferable to set the inclination angle α3 within a range of ±3°.

[0051] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1B, the connector connection portion 19 has an axis C in the insertion / removal direction of the connector at the connection port 20 inclined at a predetermined inclination angle α4 (fourth inclination) relative to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2 when viewed from below. That is, it has an inclination in the left-right direction relative to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2. In this example, it has an inclination diagonally to the right when viewed from below. As an example, the inclination angle α4 is 11.8°. It is preferable that the inclination angle α4 be set within a range of ±3°.

[0052] In this way, by inclining the axis C in the direction of inserting and removing the connector with respect to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2, the operation of inserting and removing the connector can be made easier. In addition, the load on the connection cable during use can be reduced. In particular, in the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the axis C in the direction of inserting and removing the connector has an inclination with respect to the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2 in both the up-down direction and the left-right direction, so that the load on the connection cable can be more effectively reduced. In addition, the operation of inserting and removing the connector can be made easier.

[0053] [Display and operation panel layout] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, a display unit 21 is provided on a main body 10. In addition, in the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, a plurality of operation members are provided on the main body 10.

[0054] [Display] The display unit 21 is used to display information such as settings of various operating members provided in the zoom demand 1. The display unit 21 is configured, for example, by an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), an organic EL display (Organic Light Emitting Diode display), or the like, and has a rectangular display surface.

[0055] 1, the display unit 21 is disposed on the top surface 10T of the main body 10. In particular, in the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the display unit 21 is provided on the axis of the grip 2. That is, the display unit 21 is disposed at the center position in the width direction of the top surface 10T.

[0056] Incidentally, the upper surface 10T on which the display unit 21 is arranged is inclined upward from the base end side toward the tip end side. The display surface of the display unit 21 is arranged along this inclination. Such an upward inclination makes it possible to make the display of the display unit 21 easier to see. That is, the display surface faces the user who operates the zoom demand 1, so the display can be made easier to see. In addition, such an inclination can prevent sunlight, indoor lighting, and the like from being reflected on the display surface, ensuring good visibility.

[0057] [Operation parts located on the top of the main unit] Including the operation members provided on the protrusion 11, the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 is provided with five operation members. Specifically, five operation members are provided: an upper surface first operation member 30A, an upper surface second operation member 30B, an upper surface third operation member 30C, an upper surface fourth operation member 30D, and an upper surface fifth operation member 30E. The upper surface first operation member 30A, the upper surface second operation member 30B, and the upper surface third operation member 30C are provided on the protrusion 11. In addition, the upper surface fourth operation member 30D and the upper surface fifth operation member 30E are provided on the upper surface 10T other than the protrusion. The upper surface first operation member 30A, the upper surface second operation member 30B, and the upper surface third operation member 30C are an example of a third main body operation member.

[0058] The three operating members provided on the protrusion 11, i.e., the top surface first operating member 30A, the top surface second operating member 30B, and the top surface third operating member 30C, are provided on the inclined surface 12 of the protrusion 11. The top surface first operating member 30A, the top surface second operating member 30B, and the top surface third operating member 30C are arranged in parallel in the horizontal direction with the top surface second operating member 30B at the center. The central top surface second operating member 30B is arranged on the axis of the grip 2.

[0059] As described above, the protrusion 11 is provided at the end on the grip side and has a greater inclination than the top surface 10T. Therefore, the three operating members (top surface second operating member 30B and top surface third operating member 30C) provided on the protrusion 11 can be operated while holding the grip 2.

[0060] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the top surface first operation member 30A is configured as a toggle switch. In particular, in this embodiment, it is configured as a so-called two-position toggle switch. The toggle switch constituting the top surface first operation member 30A has its operation lever operated along the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0061] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the upper surface second operation member 30B is configured with a rocker switch. The rocker switch configuring the upper surface second operation member 30B is operated along the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0062] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the top surface third operation member 30C is configured with a push button switch. The push button switch configuring the top surface third operation member 30C is operated in a direction in which it is pressed against the inclined surface 12 of the protrusion 11.

[0063] The top surface fourth operation member 30D and the top surface fifth operation member 30E are disposed on both the left and right sides of the display unit 21. That is, they are disposed adjacent to the sides of the display unit 21. As described above, the display unit 21 is disposed on the axis of the grip 2, and therefore the top surface fourth operation member 30D and the top surface fifth operation member 30E are disposed at positions sandwiching the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0064] In this manner, in the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, two operation members (top surface fourth operation member 30D and top surface fifth operation member 30E) are arranged on the top surface 10T of the main body 10, sandwiching the display unit 21. The display unit 21 and the two operation members are arranged at positions toward the tip of the top surface 10T of the main body 10. As described above, the top surface 10T of the main body 10 has a shape in which the width in the lateral direction increases toward the tip, so that sufficient installation space can be secured.

[0065] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the top surface fourth operation member 30D is configured with a cross key. The cross key configuring the top surface fourth operation member 30D is operated in four directions, ie, forward, backward, left and right.

[0066] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the top surface fifth operation member 30E is configured as a rotary dial and is rotated around an axis. In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, a cylindrical dial constituting the top surface fifth operation member 30E is disposed protruding from the top surface 10T of the main body 10 and is rotated around an axis perpendicular to the top surface 10T. The top surface fifth operation member 30E is an example of a second main body operation unit.

[0067] However, if the operating member is arranged to protrude from the surface, the protruding portion may hit an object, etc., and the operating member may be damaged, etc. Therefore, in the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the operating member arranged on the top surface 10T of the main body 10 is protected by being arranged as follows.

[0068] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the layout of the operation members on the top surface of the main body.

[0069] As shown in the figure, the operating members arranged on the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 are arranged such that the parts protruding from the upper surface 10T are retracted to the inside (the shaft side of the grip 2) of the line segment L1 connecting the upper end P1 of the protrusion 11 and the end P2 on the tip side of the upper surface 10T of the main body 10. In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the upper surface fourth operating member 30D and the upper surface fifth operating member 30E are arranged retracted to the inside of the line segment L1. More specifically, the upper ends of the upper surface fourth operating member 30D and the upper surface fifth operating member 30E are arranged retracted to the inside of the line segment L1. By arranging them in this way, for example, when the zoom demand 1 is placed on a desk, a table, or the like, it is possible to prevent the operating members arranged on the upper surface 10T from contacting the placement surface of the zoom demand 1. In other words, it is possible to protect the operating members.

[0070] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the top surface fifth operation member 30E protrudes more from the top surface than the top surface fourth operation member 30D. Therefore, if the upper end of the top surface fifth operation member 30E is arranged to be retracted to the inside of the line segment L1, the upper end of the top surface fourth operation member 30D is naturally arranged to be retracted to the inside of the line segment L1. Similarly, the display unit 21 is also arranged to be retracted to the inside of the line segment L1. Therefore, the display unit 21 is also protected.

[0071] [Operation parts located on the right side of the main unit] 2, two operating members are provided on the right side surface 10R of the main body 10. Specifically, two operating members, a right side surface first operating member 40A and a right side surface second operating member 40B, are provided.

[0072] The right side first operation member 40A is disposed at an upper position on the right side surface 10R of the main body 10, and the right side second operation member 40B is disposed at a lower position on the right side surface 10R of the main body 10. The right side first operation member 40A is disposed at approximately the center in the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2. On the other hand, the right side second operation member 40B is disposed near the base end. This position is a position that can be operated with the index finger of the left hand holding the grip 2 when operating the zoom demand 1 with the left hand (see FIG. 11). The right side second operation member 40B is an example of a first main body operation member.

[0073] Here, as described above, the right side surface 10R of the main body 10 has an incline. Therefore, the operation members (right side surface first operation member 40A and right side surface second operation member 40B) provided on the right side surface 10R are arranged in positions that are easy to operate while holding the grip 2. In other words, they can be arranged in positions that are easy to access while holding the grip 2, without bending the fingers in an awkward position. This provides good operability.

[0074] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the first right side operation member 40A is configured as a toggle switch. In particular, in this embodiment, it is configured as a so-called two-position toggle switch. The toggle switch constituting the first right side operation member 40A has an operation lever operated along the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0075] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the right side second operation member 40B is configured as a push button switch. The push button switch constituting the right side second operation member 40B is operated in a direction to be pressed against the right side surface 10R of the main body 10.

[0076] Here, the right side first operation member 40A, which is constituted by a toggle switch, is disposed with the tip of its operation lever protruding from the right side surface 10R of the main body 10. If the operation member is disposed protruding from the surface as described above, there is a risk that the protruding portion may hit an object or the like and be damaged. Therefore, in the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the operation member disposed on the right side surface 10R of the main body 10 is protected by being disposed as follows.

[0077] FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the layout of the operation members on the side surface of the main body.

[0078] As shown in the figure, the operating member disposed on the right side surface 10R of the main body 10 has a portion protruding from the right side surface 10R retreated to the inside (the axis side of the grip 2) of a line segment L2 connecting an end P3 on the tip side of the right side surface 10R of the main body 10 and an end P4 of the grip 2. In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the tip of the operating lever of the right side surface first operating member 40A constituted by a toggle switch is disposed protruding from the right side surface 10R of the main body 10. The tip of this operating lever is disposed retreated to the inside of the line segment L2. By disposing in this manner, for example, when the zoom demand 1 is placed on a desk, a table, or the like, it is possible to prevent the protruding portion of the operating member from contacting the placement surface of the zoom demand 1. That is, it is possible to protect the operating member. The right side surface first operating member 40A is an example of a fifth main body operating unit.

[0079] In addition, the right side second operation member 40B configured as a push button switch protrudes less from the right side surface 10R than the right side first operation member 40A configured as a toggle switch, and is therefore protected in the same manner as the right side first operation member 40A. Therefore, the right side second operation member 40B is another example of the fifth main body operation part.

[0080] [Operation parts located on the left side of the main unit] 3, three operating members are provided on the left side surface 10L of the main body 10. Specifically, the three operating members are a left side surface first operating member 50A, a left side surface second operating member 50B, and a left side surface third operating member 50C.

[0081] The first left side operation member 50A and the second left side operation member 50B are disposed at an upper position on the left side surface 10L of the main body 10. On the other hand, the third left side operation member 50C is disposed at a lower position on the left side surface 10L of the main body 10. The first left side operation member 50A and the second left side operation member 50B are disposed in a vertical line in the front-rear direction along the inclination of the upper surface 10T. The second left side operation member 50B and the third left side operation member 50C are disposed near the base end. This position is a position that can be operated by the index finger of the right hand gripping the grip 2 when the zoom demand 1 is operated with the right hand (see FIG. 11). The second left side operation member 50B and the third left side operation member 50C are another example of the first main body operation member.

[0082] Here, as described above, the left side surface 10L of the main body 10 has an incline. Therefore, the operating members (left side surface first operating member 50A, left side surface second operating member 50B, and left side surface third operating member 50C) provided on the left side surface 10L are arranged in positions that are easy to operate while holding the grip 2. In other words, they can be arranged in positions that are easy to access while holding the grip 2, without bending the fingers in an awkward position. This provides good operability.

[0083] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the first left side operation member 50A and the second left side operation member 50B are configured as toggle switches. In particular, in this embodiment, they are configured as so-called two-position toggle switches. The toggle switches constituting the first left side operation member 50A and the second left side operation member 50B have their operation levers operated along the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0084] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the left side third operation member 50C is configured as a push button switch. The push button switch constituting the left side third operation member 50C is operated in a direction to be pressed against the left side surface 10L of the main body 10.

[0085] Here, the left side first operating member 50A and the left side second operating member 50B, which are configured as toggle switches, are disposed with the tips of their operating levers protruding from the left side surface 10L of the main body 10. If the operating members are disposed protruding from the surface as described above, there is a risk of damage, etc. Therefore, in the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the operating members disposed on the left side surface 10L of the main body 10 are protected by being disposed as follows.

[0086] As shown in FIG. 11, the operating member disposed on the left side surface 10L of the main body 10 has a portion protruding from the left side surface 10L retracted to the inside (the axis side of the grip 2) of a line segment L3 connecting an end P5 on the tip side of the left side surface 10L of the main body 10 and an end P4 of the grip 2. In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the tip of the operating lever of the left side surface first operating member 50A and the left side surface second operating member 50B, which are configured as toggle switches, is disposed protruding from the left side surface 10L of the main body 10. The tip of this operating lever is disposed retracted to the inside of the line segment L3. By disposing in this manner, for example, when the zoom demand 1 is placed on a desk, a table, or the like, it is possible to prevent the protruding portion of the operating member from contacting the placement surface of the zoom demand 1. That is, it is possible to protect the operating member. The left side surface first operating member 50A and the left side surface second operating member 50B are an example of a fifth main body operating unit.

[0087] In addition, the left side third operation member 50C constituted by a push button switch protrudes less from the left side surface 10L than the left side first operation member 50A and the left side second operation member 50B constituted by toggle switches, and is therefore protected in the same manner as the left side first operation member 50A and the left side second operation member 50B. Therefore, the left side third operation member 50C is another example of a fifth main body operation part.

[0088] [Operation parts located on the bottom of the main unit] 4, two operating members are provided on the lower surface 10B of the main body 10. Specifically, a lower surface first operating member 60A and a lower surface second operating member 60B are provided.

[0089] The lower first operation member 60A is provided on the lower surface portion of the connector connection part 19. On the other hand, the lower second operation member 60B is provided on the end surface of the connector connection part 19 on the base end side.

[0090] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, the lower first operation member 60A is configured as a toggle switch. In particular, in this embodiment, it is configured as a so-called two-position toggle switch. The toggle switch constituting the lower first operation member 60A has an operation lever operated along the direction of the axis Z of the grip 2.

[0091] Here, as shown in FIG. 2, a recess 19A is provided on the lower surface of the connector connection portion 19. The lower surface first operation member 60A is disposed in the recess 19A so that the tip of the operation lever does not protrude from the lower surface of the connector connection portion 19. This makes it possible to prevent the lower surface first operation member 60A from contacting the placement surface of the zoom demand 1 when the zoom demand 1 is placed on a desk, stand, or the like. In other words, the lower surface first operation member 60A can be protected. The lower surface first operation member 60A is an example of a fourth main body operation portion.

[0092] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the lower second operation member 60B is configured as a rotary dial and is rotated around an axis. In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the lower second operation member 60B is rotated around an axis perpendicular to the end face on the base end side of the connector connection portion 19.

[0093] [Other operating parts] In the zoom demand 1 of this embodiment, an operation member is also provided on the grip 2. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 4, two operation members, a grip portion first operation member 70A and a grip portion second operation member 70B, are provided on the lower surface portion of the grip 2. The grip portion first operation member 70A and the grip portion second operation member 70B are arranged in a vertical row along the axis of the grip 2.

[0094] In the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the grip portion first operation member 70A and the grip portion second operation member 70B are both configured as push button switches, and are operated in a direction in which they are pressed against the circumferential surface of the grip 2.

[0095] [Effect] As described above, according to the zoom demand 1 of the present embodiment, the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 has an inclination, so that the visibility of the display unit 21 disposed on the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 can be improved.

[0096] Furthermore, by providing the protrusion 11 on the top surface 10T, the operation members and the display unit 21 provided on the top surface 10T can be protected.

[0097] Furthermore, by forming the top surface 10T in a trapezoidal shape and providing an inclined side surface, the operability of the operating members arranged on the side surface can be improved and the operating members arranged on the side surface can be protected.

[0098] In addition, the axis C of the connector insertion / removal direction is inclined with respect to the axis Z of the grip 2, which makes it easier to insert and remove the connector. Also, the load on the connection cable during use can be reduced.

[0099] [Variations] [Operation parts located on the top of the main unit] The upper surface 10T of the main body 10 is provided with a plurality of operating members. Each operating member is required to have good operability. It is also desirable that the operating members are configured to avoid contact with objects during storage, etc. Below, modified examples of the operating members arranged on the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 are described. Note that here, of the multiple operating members arranged, only the upper surface fifth operating member 30E is described, and its modified examples are described. The upper surface fifth operating member 30E is assigned, for example, a function of adjusting the amount. For example, it is assigned a function of adjusting the back focus.

[0100] [First Modification] FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a first modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0101] The fifth upper operation member 30E of this example is also composed of a rotary dial, and is rotated around an axis. However, the fifth upper operation member 30E of this example is different in that it is embedded in the upper surface 10T of the main body 10. Specifically, it is embedded in the upper surface 10T of the main body 10, and only its top surface is exposed and disposed on the upper surface 10T of the main body 10. The operation is performed by rotating it around an axis perpendicular to the upper surface 10T. Therefore, the rotation axis is set in a direction intersecting with the axis of the grip. The user presses his fingertip against the top surface part of the dial constituting the fifth upper operation member 30E to rotate the fifth upper operation member 30E. Note that, when the grip is being held, this operation is performed with a hand other than the hand holding the grip.

[0102] In this way, the operation portion of the top surface fifth operation member 30E of this example is disposed on substantially the same plane as the top surface 10T of the main body 10. This makes it possible to substantially eliminate protrusions, and to prevent damage due to contact or the like.

[0103] [Second modified example] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a second modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0104] The fifth upper surface operation member 30E of this example is also configured as a rotary dial, and is similar to the first modified example in that it is embedded in the main body 10. Also, it is similar to the first modified example in that the top surface of the dial is disposed substantially flush with the top surface 10T of the main body 10. However, the fifth upper surface operation member 30E of this example differs from the first modified example in that part of the circumferential surface of the dial is also disposed exposed.

[0105] 13, the top fifth operation member 30E of this example is configured as a cylindrical dial, and a part of its circumferential surface is exposed from the contact portion between the top surface 10T and the right side surface 10R of the main body 10. In other words, a part of the circumferential surface of the cylindrical dial is exposed from the joint between the top surface 10T and the right side surface 10R.

[0106] The operation direction is the same as in the first modified example, that is, the rotation is performed around an axis perpendicular to the top surface 10T.

[0107] The user places a fingertip on the partially exposed side of the dial to rotate it. The dial can also be rotated by pressing it against the top surface. If the user is holding the grip, this operation is performed with a hand other than the hand holding the grip.

[0108] The upper surface fifth operation member 30E of this example also does not substantially protrude from the upper surface 10T, so that damage due to contact or the like can be prevented.

[0109] 13, in the zoom demand 1 of this example, the contact surface between the top surface 10T and the right side surface 10R has a radius (the cross section has an arc shape). This allows the top surface fifth operation member 30E to be disposed without protruding from the side surface.

[0110] In this embodiment, the direction of the rotation axis is set to a direction perpendicular to the top surface 10T, but the direction of the rotation axis may be set to be inclined with respect to the top surface 10T of the main body 10.

[0111] [Third Modification] FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a third modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0112] The fifth upper operation member 30E of this example is also configured as a rotary dial, and is similar to the first modified example in that it is embedded in the main body 10. However, the operation direction thereof differs from that of the first modified example.

[0113] 14, the upper surface fifth operation member 30E of this example is rotated around an axis parallel to the upper surface 10T of the main body 10. In particular, the upper surface fifth operation member 30E of this example is disposed such that its rotation axis is parallel to the upper surface 10T of the main body 10 and perpendicular to the axis of the grip. A part of its circumferential surface is exposed from the upper surface 10T of the main body 10.

[0114] The top surface fifth operation member 30E thus arranged can be rotated by placing a fingertip on the portion exposed from the top surface 10T and moving the fingertip back and forth along the axis of the grip.

[0115] Furthermore, the amount by which the top surface fifth operation member 30E thus arranged protrudes from the top surface 10T can be minimized, and damage due to contact or the like can be prevented.

[0116] In this example, the rotation axis is set to a direction perpendicular to the axis of the grip, but it can also be set to a direction inclined with respect to the axis of the grip. Similarly, the rotation axis can also be set to a direction inclined with respect to the top surface 10T of the main body 10.

[0117] [Fourth Variation] FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a fourth modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0118] In this example, the top fifth operation member 30E is disposed on the protrusion 11.

[0119] The fifth upper operation member 30E of this example is also configured as a rotary dial, and is similar to the first modified example in that it is embedded in the main body 10.

[0120] 15, the upper fifth operating member 30E of this example is disposed on the contact surface between the end face (tip surface) 13 on the tip side of the protrusion 11 and the right side surface 10R, and is rotated around an axis along the inclination of the contact surface. That is, it is disposed along one edge portion on the tip side of the protrusion 11, and is rotated around an axis along the edge.

[0121] The top surface fifth operation member 30E thus arranged can be operated while holding the grip.

[0122] In addition, since it is disposed inside the line segment connecting the upper end of protrusion 11 and the end on the tip side of upper surface 10T of main body 10, damage due to contact or the like can be prevented.

[0123] In this example, the sensor 10 is disposed on the surface contacting the right side surface 10R, but the sensor 10 may be disposed on the surface contacting the left side surface 10L. Furthermore, the sensor 10 may be disposed on the surface contacting both sides.

[0124] [Fifth Modification] FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a fifth modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0125] This example is also an example in which the top surface fifth operation member 30E is disposed on the protrusion 11. The difference from the fourth modified example is the position where the top surface fifth operation member 30E is disposed.

[0126] 16, the upper surface fifth operation member 30E of this example is disposed in the center of the tip surface 13 of the protrusion 11. In other words, it is disposed on the axis of the grip.

[0127] In this example, the fifth upper operation member 30E can be operated while holding the grip. In addition, since the fifth upper operation member 30E is disposed on the axis of the grip, it can be operated with either the left or right hand.

[0128] In addition, since it is disposed inside the line segment connecting the upper end of protrusion 11 and the end on the tip side of upper surface 10T of main body 10, damage due to contact or the like can be prevented.

[0129] In this example, the central portion of the tip surface 13 of the protrusion 11 has a shape that stands up almost perpendicular to the top surface 10T of the main body 10. Therefore, in this example, the rotation axis of the top surface fifth operating member 30E is set almost perpendicular to the top surface 10T of the main body 10. The direction of the rotation axis is not limited to this, and can be set to any desired angle as appropriate.

[0130] [Sixth Modification] FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a sixth modified example of the top surface fifth operating member.

[0131] This example is also an example in which the top surface fifth operation member 30E is disposed on the protrusion 11. This example is also an example in which the top surface fifth operation member 30E is configured as an operation member other than a rotary dial.

[0132] 16, the top fifth operation member 30E of this example is constituted by a push button switch, and is disposed at the center position of the inclined surface 12 of the protrusion 11. In other words, it is disposed on the axis of the grip.

[0133] In this example, the fifth upper operation member 30E can be operated while holding the grip. In addition, since the fifth upper operation member 30E is disposed on the axis of the grip, it can be operated with either the left or right hand.

[0134] [Seventh Variation] FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a seventh modified example of the top surface fifth operation member.

[0135] This example is another example in which the top surface fifth operation member 30E is configured as an operation member other than a rotary dial.

[0136] 17, the top surface fifth operation member 30E of this example is configured with a touch pad, and is disposed on the same plane (including a surface that is recognized as being substantially the same plane) as the top surface 10T of the main body 10. In the example shown in FIG. 17, it is disposed at a position sandwiching the display unit 21 between itself and the top surface fourth operation member 30D, and is disposed adjacent to the side of the display unit 21.

[0137] A user operates the touchpad by tracing the surface of the touchpad with a finger. Note that, when the user is holding the grip, this operation is performed with a hand other than the hand holding the grip.

[0138] [Other variations] In the above embodiment, operation members are provided on all four faces of the main body 10, but it is sufficient that at least one operation member is provided on one side.

[0139] In the above embodiment, all four faces of the main body 10 are inclined, but it is sufficient that at least the side faces are inclined. Also, it is not necessary that both side faces are inclined, but it is sufficient that at least the side face on which the operating member is arranged is inclined.

[0140] In addition, in the above embodiment, the protrusion 11 is provided on the top surface 10T, but the protrusion 11 does not necessarily have to be provided.

[0141] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the periphery of the main body 10 is configured with four surfaces, but it may be configured with more than two surfaces. It is sufficient that the shape has at least a top surface and both side surfaces connected to the top surface.

[0142] The thumb ring may be configured to be operated in another manner in addition to or instead of being pivoted about the axis of the grip. For example, the thumb ring may be configured to be slid in the axial direction in addition to or instead of being pivoted about the axis of the grip.

[0143] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the present invention has been described as being applied to a zoom demand, but it can also be applied to an operating device that operates other electronic devices. [Explanation of symbols]
