An electrical switch includes comprising a fixed upper contact a fixed lower contact, and a mobile contact blade. A fixed support bears the mobile contact blade and the fixed support includes a front support branch and a rear support branch. Each branch includes a transversely oriented horizontal notch, in the bottom of which is housed a transverse free edge of a respectively front and rear section of the mobile contact blade. The fixed support includes two identical support plates spaced transversely apart.

An input device configured to more accurately detect movement of an operation part is provided. An input device includes a fixed electrode, a reference electrode, an operation part, and a moving electrode. The fixed electrode and the reference electrode are separate from each other on a substrate. The operation part is movable with respect to the substrate. The moving electrode faces the fixed electrode and is configured to move together with the operation part. The moving electrode 15 moves together with the operation part to enter either a connected state of being electrically connected to the reference electrode or a non-connected state of not being electrically connected to the reference electrode.

The present invention relates to the field of remote-control technology, and provides a remote control for remotely controlling a motorized device, the remote control including a first rocking lever device, a second rocking lever device, a processor and a signal transmitting device. A rod of the first rocking lever device is configured to perform a linear movement along a first direction and a second direction, so as to trigger the remote control to generate a first remote control instruction and a second remote control instruction, and is further configured to rotate along a third rotation direction and a fourth rotation direction, so as to trigger the remote control to generate a third direction and a fourth direction. The first direction is opposite to the second direction, and the third direction is opposite to the fourth direction. The processor is connected to the first rocking lever device and the second rocking lever device to process the first remote control instruction, the second remote control instruction, the third remote control instruction and the fourth remote control instruction.

A switch device includes an operation knob on which a sliding operation can be performed in a horizontal direction, a holder member that holds the operation knob and moves in the horizontal direction, a drive member that tilts as the holder member moves in the horizontal direction, a switch that is pressed down by the drive member as the drive member tilts, and a support member that supports the holder member such that the holder member can move in the horizontal direction. The holder member has a base at a center in the horizontal direction and a flange extending outward from the base in the horizontal direction. The support member has an upper wall that restricts a movement of the holder member in a vertical direction by contacting an upper surface of the flange, and a slit between the upper wall and a middle wall lower than the upper wall.

A switching device includes a first knob to receive a pressing operation in a first direction; a pressing detection switch to be pressed upon transmission of an operating force of the pressing operation; a decorative member to decorate a periphery of the first knob, that includes an engaged portion; and a holder to engage and hold the decorative member, that includes an engaging portion to engage the engaged portion. In response to the pressing operation by a first stroke amount, by the operating force transmitted to the pressing detection switch without transmitted to the engaged portion, the pressing detection switch is pressed. In response to the pressing operation by a second stroke amount greater than the first stroke amount, by the operating force applied to the first knob being transmitted to the engaged portion, the engaged portion elastically deforms, and engagement of the engaging/engaged portions is released.

An input device includes an operating body that moves through an operation performed by an operator, a movable portion that slides in accordance with movement of the operating body, a lever including a first end portion that engages with the movable portion, a rotation center, a second end portion located on an opposite side of the rotation center from the first end portion, and a magnet provided on the second end portion, where the lever rotates in accordance with sliding of the movable portion, and a magnetic sensor disposed facing the magnet. A second length from the rotation center of the lever to the magnet is greater than a first length from the rotation center to the first end portion of the lever.

An operation knob apparatus includes a base a conductive transmitting member, an operation member that brings the transmitting member near to and away from a display panel, and a stabilizer disposed between the bases and the operation member. The stabilizer includes a main body, a pair of arms connected to respective ends of the main body, and a pair of base portions and connected to the respective arms. One of the base and the operation member has a holding portion configured to rotatably hold the main body, and the other has a pair of holding grooves respectively configured to slidably and rotatably hold the base portions.

An input device has a first electrode, a second electrode, and a third electrode. The second electrode opposes to the first electrode while being spaced apart therefrom. The third electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode and rotatably or slidably provided relative to the second electrode. By the third electrode being brought into contact with or spaced apart from the second electrode, an electrical state between the first electrode and the second electrode changes. Based on this electrical change, a rotary manipulation or a slide manipulation is detected.

An operating device includes: an operating section that rotates about a predetermined axis; and a shaft part to move integrally with the operating section. The shaft part has a first end and a second end projected in directions opposite from each other along the axis. A guide regulates movement of the shaft part in a radial direction. A first regulation part specifies a position of the shaft part in a thrust direction by contacting the first end of the shaft part. A second regulation part is press-contacted to the second end, such that the first end of the shaft part is made to contact the first regulation part. A locking part is arranged integrally with the second regulation part, and restricts the shaft part from separating from the guide, by contacting the second end.
