Description

本発明は、押しボタンを押す操作で最初１段目スイッチがオンし、次いで２段目スイッチがオンする２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a two-stage pushbutton switch device in which a first-stage switch is first turned on by an operation of pushing a pushbutton and then a second-stage switch is turned on.

この種の２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置としては、特許文献１に開示された例がある。   As this type of two-stage push button switch device, there is an example disclosed in Patent Document 1.

特開平７−３２０５９２号公報JP 7-320592 A

特許文献１に開示されたものは、補助ボタンが主ボタンの操作部に設けられており、第１実施例では補助ボタンがゴム製で押されると容易に弾性変形して補助接点（１段目スイッチ）をオンし、そのままさらに強く押すと復帰スプリングにより付勢された主ボタンが移動して主接点（２段目スイッチ）をオンする構造のものである。   In the device disclosed in Patent Document 1, an auxiliary button is provided on the operation portion of the main button. In the first embodiment, when the auxiliary button is made of rubber, it is easily elastically deformed and is easily elastically deformed (first step). When the switch is turned on and pressed more strongly, the main button biased by the return spring moves to turn on the main contact (second stage switch).

また、第２実施例では、補助ボタンを付勢する補助接点用スプリングより主ボタンを付勢する復帰スプリングの方が大きな付勢力を有するように設定され、補助ボタンが押されると、まず補助接点用スプリングが縮設されて補助接点（１段目スイッチ）をオンし、さらに復帰スプリングの付勢力より大きな力で押されると、主ボタンが移動して主接点（２段目スイッチ）をオンする構造のものである。   In the second embodiment, the return spring for biasing the main button is set to have a larger biasing force than the spring for the auxiliary contact for biasing the auxiliary button. The spring is retracted to turn on the auxiliary contact (first-stage switch), and when pressed with a force greater than the urging force of the return spring, the main button moves to turn on the main contact (second-stage switch) Of structure.

上記第１実施例と第２実施例は、ともに１段目押しボタン（補助ボタン）が押された後に復帰スプリングにより付勢された２段目押しボタン（主ボタン）が復帰スプリングの付勢力に抗して移動することで２段目スイッチ（主接点）をオンするものである。
したがって、２段目押しボタンが押されるときには、１段目押しボタンを押す力より大きい力ではあるが、抗力（復帰スプリングの付勢力）が小さいので１段目押しボタンを押す力に比べて格別大きい力を要求されない。 In both the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the second-stage push button (main button) urged by the return spring after the first-stage push button (auxiliary button) is pushed is used as the urging force of the return spring. The second stage switch (main contact) is turned on by moving against it.
Therefore, when the second-stage push button is pressed, the force is greater than the force pushing the first-stage push button, but the drag (the urging force of the return spring) is small, so it is exceptional compared to the force pushing the first-stage push button. Big power is not required.

そのため、操作者にとっては、２段目押しボタンを操作した感覚が乏しい。
また、２段目押しボタンの移動直前の抗力が小さく操作した感覚が乏しいことから、２段目押しボタンが移動して２段目スイッチがオンしたか否かがあいまいになったり、１段目押しボタンのみの操作のつもりが、誤って２段目押しボタンも操作してしまうという操作者の意図に反した誤操作が起こり易い。 Therefore, the operator does not have a sense of operating the second-stage push button.
In addition, since the drag just before the second-stage pushbutton is moved is less sensitive, the second-stage pushbutton moves and it becomes ambiguous whether the second-stage switch is turned on. Although it is intended to operate only the push button, an erroneous operation contrary to the operator's intention that the second-stage push button is erroneously operated is likely to occur.

本発明は、かかる点に鑑みなされたもので、その目的とする処は、２段目押しボタンを操作した感覚が明瞭にあり、誤操作が起こり難い２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置を供する点にある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and the object of the present invention is to provide a two-stage pushbutton switch device that has a clear sense of operating the second-stage push button and is unlikely to cause erroneous operations. .

上記目的を達成するために、請求項１記載の発明は、１段目押しボタンが１段目支持部材に付勢手段により押し操作方向と反対方向に付勢されて移動自在に支持され、前記１段目押しボタンと前記１段目支持部材との間に介装された１段目スイッチは、前記１段目押しボタンが押されて移動した前記１段目支持部材に対する所定相対位置でオンし、前記１段目支持部材が２段目押しボタン部材により支持され、前記２段目押しボタン部材が２段目支持部材に付勢手段により押し操作方向と反対方向に付勢されて移動自在に支持されるとともに、磁石により吸着保持され、前記２段目押しボタン部材と前記２段目支持部材との間に介装された２段目スイッチは、前記２段目押しボタン部材が押されて前記磁石による吸着が解除され移動した前記２段目支持部材に対する所定相対位置でオンする２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置とした。   In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the first-stage push button is movably supported by the first-stage support member by being urged by the urging means in the direction opposite to the pushing operation direction. The first-stage switch interposed between the first-stage push button and the first-stage support member is turned on at a predetermined relative position with respect to the first-stage support member moved by the first-stage push button being pushed. The first-stage support member is supported by the second-stage push button member, and the second-stage push button member is urged by the urging means in the direction opposite to the pushing operation direction by the second-stage support member and is movable. The second-stage switch that is supported by the magnet and attracted and held by the magnet and interposed between the second-stage pushbutton member and the second-stage support member is pressed by the second-stage pushbutton member. The magnet has been released from being attracted and moved. And a button switch device press 2-stage to be turned on at a predetermined position relative to the stage support member.

請求項２記載の発明は、請求項１記載の２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置において、前記１段目支持部材と前記１段目押しボタンと前記１段目スイッチとが、小組みされた状態で前記２段目押しボタン部材に組付けられることを特徴とする。   The invention according to claim 2 is the two-stage pushbutton switch device according to claim 1, wherein the first-stage support member, the first-stage pushbutton, and the first-stage switch are assembled in a small state. It is assembled to the second-stage push button member.

請求項１記載の２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置によれば、２段目押しボタン部材が２段目支持部材に付勢手段により押し操作方向と反対方向に付勢されて移動自在に支持されるとともに、磁石により２段目スイッチがオフ状態の位置に吸着保持されるので、１段目押しボタンを押して１段目スイッチをオンした後に、２段目スイッチをオンしようとすると、磁石による吸着を解除するだけの１段目押しボタンを押す力に比べかなり大きい力でさらに強く押す必要があり、磁石による吸着が解除されるときは、急激に抗力を失って一気に２段目押しボタン部材が移動して２段目スイッチがオンすることになる。   According to the two-stage pushbutton switch device of the first aspect, the second-stage pushbutton member is urged by the urging means in the direction opposite to the push operation direction by the second-stage support member and is movably supported. At the same time, since the second stage switch is attracted and held by the magnet at the off position, if the first stage switch is turned on by pressing the first stage push button and the second stage switch is turned on, the magnet is attracted. It is necessary to push more strongly with a force that is considerably larger than the force that pushes the first-stage push button that only needs to be released. When the adsorption by the magnet is released, the second-stage push button member suddenly loses its drag and moves at once. Thus, the second stage switch is turned on.

したがって、操作者は、２段目押しボタン部材の移動の前後で、はっきりとクリック感を感じることができ、このクリック感により２段目押しボタンを操作した明瞭な感覚がある。   Accordingly, the operator can clearly feel a click feeling before and after the movement of the second-stage push button member, and there is a clear sense that the second-stage push button is operated by this click feeling.

２段目押しボタン部材の移動の前後で、はっきりとクリック感を感じることができるので、２段目スイッチがオンしたか否かがあいまいになったりすることがない。
また、２段目押しボタンの移動直前の抗力（磁石による吸着力）が大きく、１段目押しボタンのみの操作のつもりが、誤って２段目押しボタンも操作してしまうといった操作者の意図に反した誤操作が起こり難い。 Before and after the movement of the second-stage push button member, it is possible to clearly feel a click feeling, so that it is not ambiguous whether or not the second-stage switch is turned on.
In addition, the operator's intention is that the drag (adsorption force by the magnet) just before the movement of the second-stage push button is large, and that the intention to operate only the first-stage push button is to operate the second-stage push button by mistake. It is hard to cause an erroneous operation contrary to the above.

請求項２記載の２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置によれば、１段目支持部材と１段目押しボタンと１段目スイッチとが、小組みされた状態で２段目押しボタン部材に組付けられるので、組付け作業が簡単で生産性の向上が図れる。   According to the two-stage pushbutton switch device according to claim 2, the first-stage support member, the first-stage pushbutton, and the first-stage switch are assembled to the second-stage pushbutton member in a small state. Therefore, assembly work is easy and productivity can be improved.

また、１段目押しボタンが２段目押しボタンに比べて頻繁に作動されて耐久性が問題となるような場合には、特に１段目押しボタンを小組みされた１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置のみを交換することができ、経済的である。
さらに、従前の一般的な押しボタンスイッチ装置を１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置として利用することが可能で低コスト化が図れる。 In addition, when the first-stage push button is operated more frequently than the second-stage push button and durability becomes a problem, the first-stage push button switch in which the first-stage push button is assembled is particularly small. It is economical because only the device can be replaced.
Furthermore, the conventional general push button switch device can be used as the first-stage push button switch device, and the cost can be reduced.

In the present specification, in the top view of the two-stage pushbutton switch device 1 of FIG.

金属板で裏打ちされた樹脂製の基盤２の中央部に大きな円開口２ａが形成されており、同基盤２の裏側において概ねチャンネル状に屈曲された金属板である支持部材３が円開口２ａを下から覆うように左右側板３Ｌ，３Ｒの上端のフランジ部３Lf，３Rfを基盤２の裏面に固着して取り付けられている（図４，図７，図８，図９参照）。
図８および図９を参照して、支持部材３の底板３Ｂには中央に矩形孔３ａが穿設され、４隅に円筒状のロッドガイド部材４が下面から固定部材５により底板３Ｂを挟むようにして固定され上方に突設されている。 A large circular opening 2a is formed in the center of the resin base 2 lined with a metal plate, and the support member 3 which is a metal plate bent in a channel shape on the back side of the base 2 has a circular opening 2a. The flange portions 3Lf and 3Rf at the upper ends of the left and right side plates 3L and 3R are fixedly attached to the back surface of the base 2 so as to cover from below (see FIGS. 4, 7, 8, and 9).
8 and 9, a rectangular hole 3a is formed in the center of the bottom plate 3B of the support member 3, and cylindrical rod guide members 4 are sandwiched by the fixing member 5 from the lower surface at four corners. It is fixed and protrudes upward.

なお、支持部材３の底板３Ｂには中央の矩形孔３ａの前後左右にそれぞれ作業孔３ｂが穿孔され、底板３Ｂの上面には左右の作業孔３ｂ，３ｂの外側にそれぞれ長方体状をして中央に矩形孔が穿孔されたストッパ部材６，６が固着されている。
ストッパ部材６は、耐衝撃性を有する樹脂部材またはゴム等の弾性部材で形成されている。
以上の主に４本のロッドガイド部材４を含む支持部材３および基盤２等が２段目支持部材に相当する。 The bottom plate 3B of the support member 3 is provided with working holes 3b on the front, rear, left and right sides of the central rectangular hole 3a, respectively, and the upper surface of the bottom plate 3B has a rectangular shape outside the left and right working holes 3b, 3b. The stopper members 6 and 6 having a rectangular hole in the center are fixed.
The stopper member 6 is formed of an elastic member such as a resin member or rubber having impact resistance.
The support member 3 including the four rod guide members 4 and the base 2 as described above correspond to the second-stage support member.

図９を参照して、支持部材３の底板３Ｂと基盤２との間の空間に、概ね扁平な矩形箱状をした昇降ボタン基板11が開口を下方に向けて昇降自在に支持される。
すなわち、箱状をした昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕの下面の４隅から下方に突設されたロッド12が、前記支持部材３の底板３Ｂの４隅に突設された円筒状のロッドガイド部材４にそれぞれ摺動自在に嵌入し、各ロッド12にそれぞれ巻回された圧縮スプリング13が昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕと円筒状のロッドガイド部材４の上端面との間に介装されており、４本の圧縮スプリング13により上方に付勢されて昇降ボタン基板11が昇降自在に支持されている。 Referring to FIG. 9, in a space between the bottom plate 3B of the support member 3 and the base 2, a lift button substrate 11 having a substantially flat rectangular box shape is supported so that the opening can be moved up and down downward.
That is, the rod 12 protruding downward from the four corners of the lower surface of the upper plate 11U of the box-shaped lifting button substrate 11 is a cylindrical rod guide protruding from the four corners of the bottom plate 3B of the support member 3. A compression spring 13 that is slidably fitted into each member 4 and wound around each rod 12 is interposed between the upper plate 11U of the lift button substrate 11 and the upper end surface of the cylindrical rod guide member 4. The lift button substrate 11 is supported by the four compression springs 13 so as to be lifted and lowered.

圧縮スプリング13により上方に付勢された昇降ボタン基板11における左右側板11Ｌ，11Ｒの下端が外側に屈曲したフランジ部11Lf，11Rfを形成しており、フランジ部11Lf，11Rfは支持部材３の底板３Ｂ上面に固着されたストッパ部材６，６の上方に位置し、下降したときはストッパ部材６，６に当接して下降を規制する。
この昇降ボタン基板11は、非磁性体金属であり、その左右フランジ部11Lf，11Rfの上面にそれぞれ強磁性体の金属磁性板14，14が固着されている。 The lower ends of the left and right side plates 11L, 11R of the lift button substrate 11 urged upward by the compression spring 13 form flange portions 11Lf, 11Rf bent outward, and the flange portions 11Lf, 11Rf are the bottom plate 3B of the support member 3. It is located above the stopper members 6 and 6 fixed on the upper surface, and when it is lowered, it comes into contact with the stopper members 6 and 6 to restrict the lowering.
The lift button substrate 11 is made of non-magnetic metal, and ferromagnetic metal magnetic plates 14 and 14 are fixed to the upper surfaces of the left and right flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf, respectively.

この左右フランジ部11Lf，11Rfの上方に、Ｌ字に屈曲されたブラケット７，７が基盤２の下面に一側片を固着して取り付けられており、ブラケット７，７の他側片が、金属磁性板14，14の上方に垂下しており、このブラケット７，７の垂下した下部に磁石８，８が固着されている。   Above the left and right flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf, brackets 7 and 7 bent in an L shape are attached to the lower surface of the base 2 with one side piece fixed, and the other side pieces of the brackets 7 and 7 are made of metal. The magnetic plates 14 and 14 are suspended above the magnetic plates 14 and 14, and the magnets 8 and 8 are fixed to the suspended portions of the brackets 7 and 7.

したがって、昇降ボタン基板11は、その左右のフランジ部11Lf，11Rfが下方のストッパ部材６，６と上方の磁石８，８とに規制された上下範囲で昇降可能であり、圧縮スプリング13により上方に付勢されて上方位置にあるときは、フランジ部11Lf，11Rfに固着された金属磁性板14，14が上方の磁石８，８に吸着される。
なお、昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕの中央には大きな矩形口11ａが形成されている。 Therefore, the lift button substrate 11 can be moved up and down in the vertical range in which the left and right flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf are restricted by the lower stopper members 6 and 6 and the upper magnets 8 and 8 and is moved upward by the compression spring 13. When energized and in the upper position, the metal magnetic plates 14 and 14 fixed to the flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf are attracted to the upper magnets 8 and 8, respectively.
A large rectangular opening 11a is formed at the center of the upper plate 11U of the lift button substrate 11.

この昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕに環状をした樹脂製の２段目押しボタン部材15が固定される。
２段目押しボタン部材15は、外周面が円周面を形成しているが、内周面は４隅を縁取りした矩形孔15ａを形成している（図７参照）。 An annular resin second stage push button member 15 is fixed to the upper plate 11U of the lift button substrate 11.
Although the outer peripheral surface of the second-stage push button member 15 forms a circumferential surface, the inner peripheral surface forms a rectangular hole 15a with four corners (see FIG. 7).

２段目押しボタン部材15の外径は、基盤２の円開口２ａの内径に略等しく、外側円周面の下部にフランジ15ｆが延出しており、昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕに固定される２段目押しボタン部材15は基盤２の円開口２ａに下方から挿入されてフランジ15ｆが基盤２の下側開口端面に当接して嵌合することが可能である。   The outer diameter of the second-stage push button member 15 is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the circular opening 2a of the base 2, and a flange 15f extends to the lower part of the outer circumferential surface, and is fixed to the upper plate 11U of the lift button substrate 11. The second-stage push button member 15 can be inserted into the circular opening 2a of the base 2 from below, and the flange 15f can be brought into contact with the lower opening end face of the base 2 to be fitted.

昇降ボタン基板11のフランジ部11Lf，11Rfの金属磁性板14，14が磁石８，８に吸着されて昇降ボタン基板11が上方位置で支持されているときに、２段目押しボタン部材15はフランジ15ｆを基盤２の下側開口端面に当接して円開口２ａに嵌合する。
したがって、基盤２の円開口２ａより上方に部分的に突出した２段目押しボタン部材15が上方から外力を受けて下方に押され、磁石８，８による金属磁性板14，14の吸着が解かれると、２段目押しボタン部材15は昇降ボタン基板11と一体に圧縮スプリング13に抗して下降する。 When the metal magnetic plates 14 and 14 of the flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf of the lift button substrate 11 are attracted to the magnets 8 and 8 and the lift button substrate 11 is supported at the upper position, the second-stage push button member 15 is the flange. 15f is brought into contact with the lower opening end face of the base 2 and fitted into the circular opening 2a.
Therefore, the second-stage push button member 15 partially protruding upward from the circular opening 2a of the base 2 is pushed downward by receiving external force from above, and the adsorption of the metal magnetic plates 14, 14 by the magnets 8, 8 is solved. Then, the second-stage push button member 15 is lowered against the compression spring 13 integrally with the lift button substrate 11.

昇降ボタン基板11の前後側板11Ｆ，11Ｂのうち前側板11Ｆの中央所定位置には２段目スイッチ18のスイッチ作動板18ａが突設されており、この前側板11Ｆの中央部の前方に、基盤２の下面に固着された支持ブラケット９が垂下しており、支持ブラケット９の後面には透過型の光センサ18ｂが所定位置に取り付けられてスイッチ作動板18ａと光センサ18ｂとで２段目スイッチ18を構成している。   A switch actuating plate 18a of a second-stage switch 18 is projected from a predetermined position in the center of the front side plate 11F of the front and rear side plates 11F and 11B of the lift button substrate 11, and a base is provided in front of the center of the front side plate 11F. The support bracket 9 fixed to the lower surface of the base plate 2 is suspended. A transmissive optical sensor 18b is attached to the rear surface of the support bracket 9 at a predetermined position, and the switch actuating plate 18a and the optical sensor 18b switch the second stage switch. 18 is composed.

すなわち、２段目スイッチ18の光センサ18ｂは、投光器と受光器が左右に対向して配置され、昇降ボタン基板11が下降したときに、一体に下降するスイッチ作動板18ａが投光器と受光器の間に入り光を遮断することで受光器が光を感知せず、この状態が２段目スイッチ18のオン状態であり、それ以外の昇降ボタン基板11が上方位置にあるときは、スイッチ作動板18ａが投光器と受光器の間より上にあって光を遮断せず受光器が光を感知し、この状態が２段目スイッチ18のオフ状態である。
以上のように、基盤２に２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10が構成されている。 That is, the optical sensor 18b of the second-stage switch 18 is configured so that the projector and the light receiver are opposed to each other on the left and right, and the switch operating plate 18a that is lowered integrally when the lift button substrate 11 is lowered is provided between the light projector and the light receiver. The light receiving device does not sense light by intervening and blocking light, and this state is the ON state of the second stage switch 18, and when the other lift button board 11 is in the upper position, the switch operation plate 18a is above the position between the projector and the light receiver and does not block the light and the light receiver senses the light. This state is the OFF state of the second-stage switch 18.
As described above, the second-stage pushbutton switch device 10 is configured on the base 2.

２段目押しボタン部材15の前後左右にはそれぞれねじ貫通孔15ｂが穿孔されており、ねじ貫通孔15ｂは上半部の内径が若干大きく構成されている。
なお、このねじ貫通孔15ｂに対向する昇降ボタン基板11の上板11Ｕにもねじ貫通孔11ｂが形成されており、この前後左右のねじ貫通孔15ｂ，11ｂに、前記支持部材３の底板３Ｂの前後左右に形成された作業孔３ｂが対向している。 Screw through holes 15b are formed in the front, rear, left and right of the second-stage push button member 15, and the screw through holes 15b are configured such that the inner diameter of the upper half is slightly larger.
A screw through hole 11b is also formed in the upper plate 11U of the lift button substrate 11 facing the screw through hole 15b, and the bottom plate 3B of the support member 3 is formed in the front, rear, left and right screw through holes 15b and 11b. The work holes 3b formed on the front, rear, left and right are opposed to each other.

基盤２の円開口２ａより上方に部分的に突出した２段目押しボタン部材15に、１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30が取り付けられる。
図９を参照して、１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30における樹脂製の１段目支持部材31は、円筒ガイド部31ａの上側開口端が外周径方向に大きく延出して中空円板部31ｂを形成しており、中空円板部31ｂの外周縁に外輪ガイド部31ｃが上方に突出している。 A first-stage push button switch device 30 is attached to a second-stage push button member 15 partially protruding above the circular opening 2 a of the base 2.
Referring to FIG. 9, the first-stage support member 31 made of resin in the first-stage pushbutton switch device 30 has an upper opening end of the cylindrical guide portion 31a that extends greatly in the outer peripheral radial direction to form a hollow disc portion 31b. The outer ring guide portion 31c protrudes upward from the outer peripheral edge of the hollow disc portion 31b.

１段目支持部材31の円筒ガイド部31ａの下端には１段目スイッチ34であるマイクロスイッチが着脱自在に取り付けられ、１段目スイッチ34の作動ピン34ａが所定箇所から上方に上下移動自在に突出しており、作動ピン34ａが下方に押されて下降すると１段目スイッチ34はオンし、それ以外でオフ状態にある。   A micro switch, which is a first-stage switch 34, is detachably attached to the lower end of the cylindrical guide portion 31a of the first-stage support member 31, and the operation pin 34a of the first-stage switch 34 is movable up and down from a predetermined position. The first stage switch 34 is turned on when the operating pin 34a is pushed downward and lowered, and is otherwise in the off state.

１段目支持部材31に昇降自在に支持される樹脂製の１段目押しボタン32は、１段目支持部材31の円筒ガイド部31ａに摺動自在に嵌合する円筒部32ａを有し、その円筒部32ａの上側開口端が外周径方向に大きく延出して中空円板部32ｂが形成され、円筒部32ａの下側開口端の対向する部分からは一対の脚部32ｃ，32ｃが下方に延出している。   The first stage push button 32 made of resin that is supported by the first stage support member 31 so as to be movable up and down has a cylindrical part 32a that is slidably fitted to the cylindrical guide part 31a of the first stage support member 31. The upper opening end of the cylindrical portion 32a extends greatly in the outer peripheral diameter direction to form a hollow disc portion 32b, and a pair of leg portions 32c and 32c are downwardly facing from the portion facing the lower opening end of the cylindrical portion 32a. It is extended.

そして、脚部32ｃ，32ｃの下端は外側に屈曲して係止片32ｄ，32ｄが形成されている。
また、脚部32ｃ，32ｃの上部位置から内側にスプリング受け片32ｅ，32ｅが突出して形成されている。
なお、中空円板部32ｂの上方は、ドーム状の操作蓋部材32ｆで覆われる。 The lower ends of the leg portions 32c, 32c are bent outward to form locking pieces 32d, 32d.
Further, spring receiving pieces 32e, 32e are formed so as to protrude inward from the upper positions of the leg portions 32c, 32c.
The upper part of the hollow disc portion 32b is covered with a dome-shaped operation lid member 32f.

以上のような１段目押しボタン32は、一対の脚部32ｃ，32ｃを内側に弾性変形させて先端の係止片32ｄ，32ｄを互いに近づけるようにして１段目支持部材31の円筒ガイド部31ａに上方から挿入していくと、先端の係止片32ｄ，32ｄが円筒ガイド部31ａの下端開口に出たところで一対の脚部32ｃ，32ｃが弾性復帰して係止片32ｄ，32ｄが円筒ガイド部31ａの下端開口端面に係止可能となる。   The first-stage push button 32 as described above has the cylindrical guide portion of the first-stage support member 31 such that the pair of leg portions 32c, 32c are elastically deformed inward so that the locking pieces 32d, 32d at the tip are brought closer to each other. When it is inserted into 31a from above, the pair of leg portions 32c, 32c is elastically restored when the locking pieces 32d, 32d at the tip come out from the lower end opening of the cylindrical guide portion 31a, and the locking pieces 32d, 32d are cylindrical. It can be locked to the lower end opening end face of the guide portion 31a.

図９を参照して、１段目支持部材31の円筒ガイド部31ａの下端に取り付けられる１段目スイッチ34のケース上面と１段目押しボタン32の一対の脚部32ｃ，32ｃの内側に突出したスプリング受け片32ｅ，32ｅとの間に圧縮スプリング35を介装すると、１段目押しボタン32は圧縮スプリング35により上方に付勢され係止片32ｄ，32ｄが円筒ガイド部31ａの下端開口端面に係止して上方位置に保持され、このとき、１段目押しボタン32の中空円板部32ｂは、中空円板部31ｂの上方に幾らかの間隙を構成して外輪ガイド部31ｃに嵌合している。
また同時に、円筒ガイド部31ａの下端開口端面に係止した一方の係止片32ｄが１段目スイッチ34の上方に突出してオフ状態にある作動ピン34ａの上端に接している。 Referring to FIG. 9, the upper surface of the case of the first-stage switch 34 attached to the lower end of the cylindrical guide portion 31a of the first-stage support member 31 and the inside of the pair of legs 32c, 32c of the first-stage push button 32 are projected. When the compression spring 35 is interposed between the spring receiving pieces 32e and 32e, the first-stage push button 32 is urged upward by the compression spring 35, and the locking pieces 32d and 32d become the lower end opening end face of the cylindrical guide portion 31a. At this time, the hollow disc portion 32b of the first-stage push button 32 forms a gap above the hollow disc portion 31b and fits into the outer ring guide portion 31c. Match.
At the same time, one locking piece 32d locked to the lower end opening end face of the cylindrical guide portion 31a protrudes above the first-stage switch 34 and is in contact with the upper end of the operating pin 34a in the OFF state.

したがって、本１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30は、１段目押しボタン32の操作蓋部材32ｆが押されると、圧縮スプリング35の付勢力に抗して１段目押しボタン32が下降し、係止片32ｄが作動ピン34ａを押し込んで１段目スイッチ34をオンさせることができ、１段目押しボタン32の押圧を解除すると、１段目押しボタン32が上昇復帰して１段目スイッチ34はオフ状態となる。
なお、圧縮スプリング35の付勢力は、前記２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10の磁石８による金属磁性板14の吸着力より格段に小さい。 Therefore, when the operation lid member 32f of the first-stage push button 32 is pushed, the first-stage push button switch device 30 is moved down against the urging force of the compression spring 35, The stop 32d pushes the operating pin 34a to turn on the first-stage switch 34. When the first-stage push button 32 is released, the first-stage push button 32 returns upward and the first-stage switch 34 is released. Is turned off.
The urging force of the compression spring 35 is much smaller than the attractive force of the metal magnetic plate 14 by the magnet 8 of the second-stage pushbutton switch device 10.

この１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30の１段目支持部材31の円筒ガイド部31ａの外周面には雄ねじ31ｄが形成されていて、１段目支持部材31の中空円板部31ｂの下面に金属製の中空円板取付部材40を添設し、ワッシャ部材41を介してともに樹脂製のナット部材42を円筒ガイド部31ａの外周面の雄ねじ31ｄに螺合し、中空円板取付部材40を中空円板部31ｂの下面に挟みつけるようにして緊締する。   A male screw 31d is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical guide portion 31a of the first-stage support member 31 of the first-stage pushbutton switch device 30, and a metal is formed on the lower surface of the hollow disc portion 31b of the first-stage support member 31. A hollow disc mounting member 40 made of plastic is attached, and a nut member 42 made of resin is screwed together with a male screw 31d on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical guide portion 31a via a washer member 41, so that the hollow disc mounting member 40 is hollow. Tighten it so that it is sandwiched between the lower surfaces of the disk portions 31b.

中空円板取付部材40は、中空円板部31ｂより外径が大きく、中空円板部31ｂより張り出した外周部の前後左右に雌ねじが刻設された円筒状の取付ボス部40ｂが下方に突出形成されている。
この前後左右の取付ボス部40ｂは、前記２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10の２段目押しボタン部材15の前後左右に穿孔されたねじ貫通孔15ｂに対応している。 The hollow disk mounting member 40 has a larger outer diameter than the hollow disk part 31b, and a cylindrical mounting boss part 40b in which female threads are engraved on the front, rear, left and right of the outer peripheral part protruding from the hollow disk part 31b. Is formed.
The front, rear, left and right mounting boss portions 40b correspond to screw through holes 15b drilled in the front, rear, left and right of the second stage push button member 15 of the second stage push button switch device 10.

底壁の中央に円孔を有する有底筒状をなす樹脂製のスペーサ43が、１段目支持部材31の下方から円筒ガイド部31ａを円孔に貫通させて筒部がワッシャ部材41およびナット部材42を内部に収容して中空円板取付部材40の下面に添設される。
スペーサ43の筒部の内周面は円周面をなすが、外周面は２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10の２段目押しボタン部材15の４隅を縁取りした矩形孔15ａに嵌合するように４隅を縁取りした矩形面をなす。 A resin-made spacer 43 having a bottomed cylindrical shape having a circular hole in the center of the bottom wall allows the cylindrical guide portion 31a to pass through the circular hole from below the first-stage support member 31, so that the cylindrical portion is a washer member 41 and a nut. The member 42 is accommodated inside and attached to the lower surface of the hollow disk mounting member 40.
The inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the spacer 43 forms a circumferential surface, and the outer peripheral surface is fitted into a rectangular hole 15a that is edged at the four corners of the second-stage push button member 15 of the second-stage push button switch device 10. A rectangular surface with four corners is formed.

したがって、１段目支持部材31に１段目押しボタン32および１段目スイッチ34等を小組みした状態の１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30を、２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10の２段目押しボタン部材15に組み付けるのに、１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30に中空円板取付部材40をワッシャ部材41を介してナット部材42により固定し、スペーサ43を中空円板取付部材40の下面に添設した状態で、図７ないし図９に示すように、上方から２段目押しボタン部材15に取り付ける。   Accordingly, the first-stage pushbutton switch device 30 in a state where the first-stage pushbutton 32 and the first-stage switch 34 are assembled in the first-stage support member 31 is replaced with the second-stage pushbutton switch apparatus 10. To assemble the push button member 15, the hollow disk mounting member 40 is fixed to the first-stage push button switch device 30 by the nut member 42 through the washer member 41, and the spacer 43 is attached to the lower surface of the hollow disk mounting member 40. In the attached state, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, it is attached to the second-stage push button member 15 from above.

１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30の円筒ガイド部31ａの下端に取り付けられ下方に突出した１段目スイッチ34を、２段目押しボタン部材15の矩形孔15ａおよび昇降ボタン基板11の矩形孔11ａに貫通させ、中空円板取付部材40の下面に添設されるスペーサ43を、２段目押しボタン部材15の矩形孔15ａに嵌入し、中空円板取付部材40の外周部を２段目押しボタン部材15の環状端面に当接する。
このとき前後左右の取付ボス部40ｂを２段目押しボタン部材15の対応するねじ貫通孔15ｂの径の大きい上半部に嵌合する。 The first-stage switch 34 attached to the lower end of the cylindrical guide portion 31a of the first-stage pushbutton switch device 30 and projecting downward is inserted into the rectangular hole 15a of the second-stage pushbutton member 15 and the rectangular hole 11a of the lift button board 11. A spacer 43 attached to the lower surface of the hollow disk mounting member 40 is inserted into the rectangular hole 15a of the second-stage push button member 15, and the outer periphery of the hollow disk mounting member 40 is moved to the second-stage push button. It contacts the annular end surface of the member 15.
At this time, the front, rear, left and right mounting boss portions 40b are fitted into the upper half portion having the large diameter of the corresponding screw through hole 15b of the second-stage push button member 15.

そして、ねじ45を、支持部材３の前後左右の作業孔３ｂから挿入して昇降ボタン基板11のねじ貫通孔11ｂおよび２段目押しボタン部材15のねじ貫通孔15ｂを貫通させて中空円板取付部材40の取付ボス部40ｂのねじ孔に螺合して緊締することで、２段目押しボタン部材15が昇降ボタン基板11と中空円板取付部材40に挟まれ固定されるとともに、２段目押しボタン部材15に中空円板取付部材40が固着されて１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30が取り付けられる。   Then, the screw 45 is inserted from the front, rear, left and right working holes 3b of the support member 3 so as to pass through the screw through hole 11b of the lift button board 11 and the screw through hole 15b of the second-stage push button member 15 and attached to the hollow disk. The second stage push button member 15 is sandwiched and fixed between the lift button board 11 and the hollow disk mounting member 40 by being screwed into the screw hole of the mounting boss 40b of the member 40 and tightened, and the second stage The hollow disk mounting member 40 is fixed to the push button member 15 and the first-stage push button switch device 30 is mounted.

こうして組付けられた２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置１の動きを、図１０ないし図１２の断面図に従って以下説明する。
図１０は、２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置１に外力が加わらないときの断面図であり、２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10における昇降ボタン基板11に固着された金属磁性板14が磁石８に吸着されて２段目押しボタン部材15は上方位置に保持されて２段目スイッチ18はオフ状態で、２段目押しボタン部材15に取り付けられた１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30における１段目押しボタン32は圧縮スプリング35に付勢されて上方位置にあって１段目スイッチ34はオフ状態にある。 The movement of the two-stage pushbutton switch device 1 assembled in this way will be described below with reference to the sectional views of FIGS.
FIG. 10 is a sectional view when no external force is applied to the two-stage pushbutton switch device 1, and the metal magnetic plate 14 fixed to the lift button substrate 11 in the second-stage pushbutton switch device 10 is attracted to the magnet 8. The second stage push button member 15 is held in the upper position, the second stage switch 18 is in the OFF state, and the first stage push button switch device 30 attached to the second stage push button member 15 is pushed. The button 32 is biased by the compression spring 35 and is in the upper position, and the first stage switch 34 is in the OFF state.

ここで、１段目押しボタン32が押されると、図１１に示すように、圧縮スプリング35に抗してまず１段目押しボタン32が下降して１段目スイッチ34の作動ピン34ａを押して１段目スイッチ34をオンする。
さらに、１段目押しボタン32が押されても、圧縮スプリング35の付勢力を多少超える程度の押圧力では、２段目押しボタンスイッチ装置10の磁石８による金属磁性板14の吸着を解くことはできず、２段目押しボタン部材15は上方位置に保持されたままで２段目スイッチ18はオフ状態である。 When the first stage push button 32 is pressed, the first stage push button 32 first descends against the compression spring 35 and pushes the operating pin 34a of the first stage switch 34 as shown in FIG. Turn on the first stage switch 34.
Further, even if the first stage push button 32 is pressed, the metal magnetic plate 14 is unsucked by the magnet 8 of the second stage push button switch device 10 with a pressing force slightly exceeding the urging force of the compression spring 35. The second-stage push button member 15 is held at the upper position, and the second-stage switch 18 is in the OFF state.

１段目押しボタン32を移動させた力に比較して格段に大きい力で、１段目押しボタン32を押すことで、１段目押しボタン32からスペーサ43等を介して昇降ボタン基板11に伝わった大きな押圧力は、磁石８による金属磁性板14の吸着を解くことができ、図１２に示すように、昇降ボタン基板11とともに２段目押しボタン部材15が圧縮スプリング13に抗して下降し、下降するスイッチ作動板18ａが光センサ18ｂの光を遮断して２段目スイッチ18がオンする。   By pushing the first-stage push button 32 with a force that is significantly larger than the force that moved the first-stage push button 32, the first-stage push button 32 is moved from the first-stage push button 32 to the lift button substrate 11 via the spacer 43 or the like. The transmitted large pressing force can release the adsorption of the metal magnetic plate 14 by the magnet 8, and the second-stage push button member 15 moves down against the compression spring 13 together with the lift button substrate 11 as shown in FIG. Then, the descending switch operating plate 18a blocks the light of the optical sensor 18b, and the second stage switch 18 is turned on.

磁石８による金属磁性板14の吸着が解除されるときは、急激に抗力を失い（圧縮スプリング13の付勢力は磁石８の吸着力よりかなり小さい）、一気に２段目押しボタン部材15が下降するので、２段目押しボタン部材15の移動の前後で、明瞭なクリック感があり、操作者はこのクリック感をはっきりと感じることができる。
なお、下降した昇降ボタン基板11は、その左右フランジ部11Lf，11Rfがストッパ部材６，６に衝接して停止される。 When the adsorption of the metal magnetic plate 14 by the magnet 8 is released, the drag force is suddenly lost (the urging force of the compression spring 13 is considerably smaller than the adsorption force of the magnet 8), and the second-stage push button member 15 is lowered at a stroke. Therefore, there is a clear click feeling before and after the movement of the second-stage push button member 15, and the operator can clearly feel this click feeling.
The raised / lowered button substrate 11 is stopped when the left and right flange portions 11Lf and 11Rf abut against the stopper members 6 and 6.

１段目押しボタン32の押圧を解除すると、圧縮スプリング13の付勢力により昇降ボタン基板11および２段目押しボタン部材15が上昇して２段目スイッチ18はオフし金属磁性板14が磁石８に吸着して保持され、さらに圧縮スプリング35の付勢力により１段目押しボタン32が上昇して１段目スイッチ34をオフし、図１０に示す状態に復帰する。   When the pressing of the first-stage push button 32 is released, the lifting button substrate 11 and the second-stage push button member 15 are raised by the urging force of the compression spring 13, the second-stage switch 18 is turned off, and the metal magnetic plate 14 is turned into the magnet 8 Further, the first-stage push button 32 is raised by the urging force of the compression spring 35 to turn off the first-stage switch 34 and return to the state shown in FIG.

以上のように、１段目押しボタン32の操作において、２段目押しボタン部材15が作動するときは、はっきりとクリック感があるので、２段目スイッチ18がオンしたか否かがあいまいになったりすることがない。
また、２段目押しボタン部材15の移動直前の抗力（磁石８による吸着力）が大きく、１段目押しボタン32のみの操作のつもりが、誤って２段目押しボタン部材15も操作してしまうといった操作者の意図に反した誤操作が起こり難い。 As described above, when the second-stage pushbutton member 15 is operated in the operation of the first-stage pushbutton 32, there is a clear click feeling, so it is ambiguous whether or not the second-stage switch 18 is turned on. It will never become.
In addition, the drag (adsorption force by the magnet 8) just before the movement of the second-stage pushbutton member 15 is large, and the intention to operate only the first-stage pushbutton 32 is to operate the second-stage pushbutton member 15 by mistake. It is difficult for an erroneous operation contrary to the operator's intention to occur.

なお、１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30が小組みされた状態で、２段目押しボタン部材15に組付けられるので、組付け作業が簡単で生産性の向上が図れる。
また、１段目押しボタン32が２段目押しボタン部材15に比べて頻繁に作動されて耐久性が問題となるような場合には、特に１段目押しボタン32を小組みされた１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置30のみを交換することができ、経済的である。
さらに、従前の一般的な押しボタンスイッチ装置を１段目押しボタンスイッチ装置として利用することが可能で低コスト化が図れる。 Since the first-stage push button switch device 30 is assembled in a small state, it is assembled to the second-stage push button member 15, so that the assembling work is simple and the productivity can be improved.
Further, when the first-stage push button 32 is operated more frequently than the second-stage push button member 15 and durability becomes a problem, the first-stage push button 32 is a small one-piece. Only the push button switch device 30 can be replaced, which is economical.
Furthermore, the conventional general push button switch device can be used as the first-stage push button switch device, and the cost can be reduced.

本実施の形態では、磁石８，８が基盤２の固定側に設けられ、これに吸着される金属磁性板14，14が昇降ボタン基板11の昇降側に固着されているが、逆に磁石を昇降側に、金属磁性板を固定側に配置してもよい。
また、２段目スイッチ18は、押し操作されている間オン状態にあって離すとオフ状態となる自動復帰接点としたが、押し操作後離しても押し操作のときの接点状態が保持され、したがって押し操作する毎に接点の状態が切り替わる残留接点としてもよい。 In this embodiment, the magnets 8 and 8 are provided on the fixed side of the base 2, and the metal magnetic plates 14 and 14 adsorbed thereto are fixed to the lifting and lowering side of the lifting and lowering button substrate 11. A metal magnetic plate may be disposed on the fixed side on the ascending / descending side.
In addition, the second-stage switch 18 is an automatic return contact that is in an on state while being pushed and turned off when released, but the contact state at the time of the push operation is maintained even if released after the push operation. Therefore, it is good also as a residual contact which the state of a contact changes whenever it push-operates.

本２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置１の使い方としては、１段目押しボタン32のみを押すときは軽く押し、２段目押しボタン部材15まで作動させるときは、１段目押しボタン32をゆっくり押すのではなく、叩くようにして押すことが効果的であり、この軽く押すのと叩くように押すのとを使い分けることで誤操作を確実に防止することができる。   The two-stage pushbutton switch device 1 can be used by pressing lightly when only the first-stage pushbutton 32 is pushed, and slowly pushing the first-stage pushbutton 32 when operating up to the second-stage pushbutton member 15. It is effective to push as if hitting, and it is possible to reliably prevent erroneous operation by properly using this light pressing and pressing like hitting.

本２段式押しボタンスイッチ装置１の用途としては、半押しでピントを合わせ全押しで画像が記録されるカメラのシャッタボタン等に適用でき、半押しでピント合わせのつもりが全押しとなってしまう誤操作を防止して使い勝手を良くすることができる。
このように半押し状態のある押しボタンを備えるもののほか、軽く押すのと叩くように押すのとを使い分けるゲーム機の操作ボタン等に適用できる。 The two-stage push button switch device 1 can be applied to a shutter button of a camera in which an image is recorded by pressing the button halfway and the image is recorded by pressing the button halfway. It is possible to prevent misoperation and improve usability.
In addition to those provided with a push button that is half-pressed in this way, the present invention can be applied to operation buttons of game machines that use light presses and taps that are used for hitting.

その他、前記特許文献１にあるように、１段目押しボタン（補助ボタン）で対応するアクチュエータのインジケータを点灯し、２段目押しボタン（主ボタン）で該アクチュエータを作動するものにも適用できる。   In addition, as described in Patent Document 1, the corresponding actuator indicator is turned on by the first-stage push button (auxiliary button) and the actuator is operated by the second-stage push button (main button). .
