Operating mechanism

Abstract

The present application relates to an operating mechanism, comprising: an operating member configured to be capable of moving between a pre-operation position and an operation position in a first direction; and a holding member configured to be capable of moving between a holding position and a release position in a second direction. The first direction intersects the second direction, and when the holding member is at the holding position, the operating member abuts against the holding member in the first direction, and the holding member blocks the operating member from moving from the operation position to the pre-operation position. The operating mechanism can maintain the operating member at the operation position without requiring continuous application of external force by a user.
