It is mounted on the upper side of the mounting part 20a. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the driving body 30 has an operating portion 30c positioned in the driving body housing portion 10f, and one shaft portion 30a of the first side wall 10b shown in FIG. The first recess 10g and the other shaft 30a are disposed in the groove 10i of the partition wall 10d. The driving body 30 moves up and down by moving the shaft portion 30a in the vertical direction (Z1-Z2) in the first concave portion 10g of the first side wall 10b and the groove portion 10i of the partition wall 10d, and swings the shaft portion 30a. The operation unit 30c is supported as a moving shaft so as to be swingable in a first direction (X1-X2 direction). In the switch unit 200, as shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b), the two drive bodies 30 have their operation units 30c adjacent to each other in the operation direction, and the operation unit 30c is in the initial (non- As shown by arrow B from the position at the time of operation), they are arranged to swing away from each other.
ばね部材４０は図５に示すように、基部４０ａが操作方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）に沿って駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂの上（Ｚ１）側に配置されている。基部４０ａは、一対のガイド壁３０ｄの間に配置され幅方向の位置がガイド壁一対のガイド壁３０ｄによって規制された状態で、第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の中心から一方（Ｘ２）側に離れた位置で摺動部３０ｂの上（Ｚ１）側に当接して支持されている。また、基部４０ａの他方（Ｘ１）側は、ケース１１を構成する第２側壁１０ｃの内側に設けられた支持部１０ｋに支持されている。 As shown in FIG. 5, the spring member 40 has a base portion 40a disposed on the upper side (Z1) of the sliding portion 30b of the driving body 30 along the operation direction (X1-X2 direction). The base portion 40a is disposed between the pair of guide walls 30d, and the position in the width direction is regulated by the pair of guide walls 30d, and the base portion 40a is one (X2) from the center in the first direction (X1-X2 direction). It is supported in contact with the upper (Z1) side of the sliding portion 30b at a position separated to the side. Further, the other (X1) side of the base portion 40 a is supported by a support portion 10 k provided inside the second side wall 10 c constituting the case 11.
カバー部材５０は図４に示すように、上面部５０ａがケース１１の開口１０ｅを覆うよう、一対の第１の側板５０ｂが第２側壁１０ｃ側に、第２の側板５０ｃが第１側壁１０ｂ側に、また第３の側板５０ｄが仕切り壁１０ｄ側に、配置されている。カバー部材５０の一対の第１の側板５０ｂに設けられた係合孔５０ｅが、第２側壁１０ｃに設けられた係合爪１０ｊに係合することで、ケース１１に取り付けられている。 4, the cover member 50 has a pair of first side plates 50b on the second side wall 10c side and a second side plate 50c on the first side wall 10b side so that the upper surface portion 50a covers the opening 10e of the case 11. In addition, a third side plate 50d is arranged on the partition wall 10d side. The engagement holes 50e provided in the pair of first side plates 50b of the cover member 50 are attached to the case 11 by engaging with the engagement claws 10j provided in the second side wall 10c.
カバー部材５０をケース１１に取り付けると、予めケース１１内に組み込まれているばね部材４０の第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃが押し撓められるため、基部４０ａにばね圧が生じる。これにより、基部４０ａが駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂを底壁１０ａ側へ向けて弾性付勢した状態で駆動体３０に当接して付勢力を付与し、その付勢力によって摺動部３０ｂが可動接点２０に弾接する。操作部３０ｃを操作することで、駆動体３０が軸部３０ａを中心に揺動することで、摺動部３０ｂが可動接点２０の立ち上がり部２０ｂの傾斜面上を摺動して可動接点２０を駆動することができる。 When the cover member 50 is attached to the case 11, the first elastic portion 40 b and the second elastic portion 40 c of the spring member 40 that are incorporated in the case 11 in advance are pressed and bent, so that spring pressure is generated in the base portion 40 a. . Thus, the base 40a elastically biases the sliding portion 30b of the driving body 30 toward the bottom wall 10a, and abuts against the driving body 30 to apply a biasing force. The sliding portion 30b is caused by the biasing force. Elastic contact with the movable contact 20. By operating the operating portion 30c, the drive body 30 swings about the shaft portion 30a, so that the sliding portion 30b slides on the inclined surface of the rising portion 20b of the movable contact 20, and the movable contact 20 is moved. Can be driven.
ばね部材４０が駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂに与える付勢力は、第１の弾性部４０ｂの弾性力と第２の弾性部４０ｃ野弾性力の合力となる。図５（ａ）に示すように、ばね部材４０を第１の向きに配置した場合、第１の弾性部４０ｂが第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の一方（Ｘ２）側に配置され、第２の弾性部４０ｃが他方（Ｘ１）側に配置される。この場合、基部４０ａが、第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の中心から一方（Ｘ２）側に離れた位置で摺動部３０ｂに支持されているため、ばね部材４０が駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂに与える付勢力は、第１の弾性部４０ｂの影響を大きく受けた弾性力を与える。 The urging force that the spring member 40 applies to the sliding portion 30b of the drive body 30 is a resultant force of the elastic force of the first elastic portion 40b and the second elastic portion 40c. As shown in FIG. 5A, when the spring member 40 is arranged in the first direction, the first elastic portion 40b is arranged on one (X2) side in the first direction (X1-X2 direction), The second elastic portion 40c is disposed on the other (X1) side. In this case, since the base portion 40a is supported by the sliding portion 30b at a position away from the center in the first direction (X1-X2 direction) to one side (X2), the spring member 40 is slid on the driving body 30. The biasing force applied to the moving portion 30b gives an elastic force that is greatly influenced by the first elastic portion 40b.
図５（ｂ）に示すように、ばね部材４０を第２の向きに配置した場合、第２の弾性部４０ｃが第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の方（Ｘ２）側に配置され、第１の弾性部４０ｂが他方（Ｘ１）側に配置される。この場合には、ばね部材４０が駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂに与える付勢力は、第２の弾性部４０ｃの影響を大きく受けて、第１の方向で配置した場合より強い弾性力を与えることとなる。 As shown in FIG. 5B, when the spring member 40 is arranged in the second direction, the second elastic portion 40c is arranged on the side (X2) in the first direction (X1-X2 direction), The first elastic part 40b is arranged on the other (X1) side. In this case, the urging force that the spring member 40 gives to the sliding portion 30b of the driving body 30 is greatly influenced by the second elastic portion 40c, and gives a stronger elastic force than when arranged in the first direction. It will be.
ばね部材４０は、基部４０ａの延設方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の中心から離れた位置で駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂに当接し、第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃが異なる弾性力を有している。このため、ばね部材４０を配置する向きを変えることで駆動体３０に与える付勢力を変えることができ、スイッチ１００の動作力を変えることができる。 The spring member 40 abuts on the sliding portion 30b of the driving body 30 at a position away from the center of the extending direction (X1-X2 direction) of the base portion 40a, and the first elastic portion 40b and the second elastic portion 40c are Has different elastic forces. For this reason, the urging | biasing force given to the drive body 30 can be changed by changing the direction which arrange | positions the spring member 40, and the operating force of the switch 100 can be changed.
次に、スイッチ１００の動作について、図５および図６を用いて説明する。図６は図５の状態から操作を行った場合のスイッチ１００の状態を示す図である。図６（ａ）は、図５（ａ）の状態から操作を行った場合の断面模式図であり、図６（ｂ）は、図５（ｂ）の状態から操作を行った場合の断面模式図である。 Next, the operation of the switch 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a state of the switch 100 when the operation is performed from the state of FIG. 6A is a schematic cross-sectional view when the operation is performed from the state of FIG. 5A, and FIG. 6B is a schematic cross-sectional view when the operation is performed from the state of FIG. FIG.
非操作時（初期状態）では図５（ａ），（ｂ）に示すように、駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂが可動接点２０の立ち上がり部２０ｂの下端部（載置部２０ａ側）に弾接している。この状態では、固定接点１２と固定接点１３とが可動接点２０を介して導通しており、固定接点１３と固定接点１４との間は非導通状態に保たれている。 When not operated (initial state), as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the sliding portion 30 b of the driving body 30 is elastically applied to the lower end portion (the mounting portion 20 a side) of the rising portion 20 b of the movable contact 20. It touches. In this state, the fixed contact 12 and the fixed contact 13 are electrically connected via the movable contact 20, and the non-conductive state is maintained between the fixed contact 13 and the fixed contact 14.
図６（ａ）および図６（ｂ）に示すように、操作時に駆動体３０の操作部３０ｃに動作力が加えられ、第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の一方（Ｘ２）側へ揺動操作されると、軸部３０ａを中心として駆動体３０が反時計方向に揺動する。駆動体３０の揺動に伴って、摺動部３０ｂが可動接点２０の立ち上がり部２０ｂ上を斜め上方へ摺動し、この過程で駆動体３０は、ばね部材４０の弾性力に抗して若干押し上げられる。摺動部３０ｂが固定接点１３に設けられた突起部１３ｂの上（Ｚ１）側を通過した時点で、可動接点２０が時計回りに駆動され、第１接点部２０ｃが固定接点１２から離れ、第２接点部２０ｄが固定接点１４に当接する。このため、固定接点１２と固定接点１３とが非導通状態になり、固定接点１３と固定接点１４との間は可動接点２０を介して導通して固定接点（１２，１３，１４）の間の導通状態を切換えることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b), an operating force is applied to the operating portion 30c of the driving body 30 during the operation, and swings toward one (X2) side in the first direction (X1-X2 direction). When operated, the driving body 30 swings counterclockwise about the shaft portion 30a. As the driving body 30 swings, the sliding portion 30b slides obliquely upward on the rising portion 20b of the movable contact 20, and in this process, the driving body 30 slightly resists the elastic force of the spring member 40. Pushed up. When the sliding portion 30b passes above the projection 13b provided on the fixed contact 13 (Z1), the movable contact 20 is driven clockwise, the first contact 20c is separated from the fixed contact 12, The two contact portions 20d abut on the fixed contact 14. For this reason, the fixed contact 12 and the fixed contact 13 are brought into a non-conductive state, and the fixed contact 13 and the fixed contact 14 are electrically connected via the movable contact 20 and between the fixed contacts (12, 13, 14). The conduction state can be switched.
図６（ａ）に示すように、ばね部材４０を第１の向きに配置した場合より、図６（ｂ）に示すように、ばね部材４０を第２の向きに配置した場合の方が、ばね部材４０が駆動体３０の摺動部３０ｂに与える付勢力が大きい。このため、駆動体３０の操作部３０ｃを操作する動作力もばね部材４０を第２の向きに配置した場合の方が大きくなる。 As shown in FIG. 6A, the case where the spring member 40 is arranged in the second direction as shown in FIG. 6B, than the case where the spring member 40 is arranged in the first direction, The biasing force which the spring member 40 gives to the sliding part 30b of the drive body 30 is large. For this reason, the operating force for operating the operating portion 30c of the driving body 30 is also greater when the spring member 40 is arranged in the second direction.
また、図６（ａ）および図６（ｂ）の状態から操作部３０ｃに対する動作力が除去された場合には、ばね部材４０の復元力が駆動体３０に働き摺動部３０ｂが立ち上がり部２０ｂの傾斜面に沿って斜め下方へ移動する。駆動体３０が時計回りに揺動するため、摺動部３０ｂが固定接点１３に設けられた突起部１３ｂの上（Ｚ１）側を通過した時点で可動接点２０が反時計回りに駆動される。この結果、可動接点２０の第２接点部２０ｄが固定接点１４から離れ、第１接点部２０ｃが固定接点１２に当接するので、固定接点１２と固定接点１３とが可動接点２０を介して導通し、固定接点１３と固定接点１４との間は非導通状態に復帰する。 6A and 6B, when the operating force on the operating portion 30c is removed, the restoring force of the spring member 40 acts on the driving body 30 and the sliding portion 30b rises. It moves diagonally downward along the inclined surface. Since the driving body 30 swings clockwise, the movable contact 20 is driven counterclockwise when the sliding portion 30b passes over the projection 13b provided on the fixed contact 13 (Z1). As a result, the second contact portion 20d of the movable contact 20 is separated from the fixed contact 14 and the first contact portion 20c contacts the fixed contact 12, so that the fixed contact 12 and the fixed contact 13 are conducted through the movable contact 20. The fixed contact 13 and the fixed contact 14 return to a non-conductive state.
以下、本実施形態としたことによる効果について説明する。 Hereinafter, the effect by having set it as this embodiment is demonstrated.
本実施形態のスイッチ１００では、操作時に操作部３０ｃが第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の一方（Ｘ２側）に揺動されることにより駆動体３０が可動接点２０を駆動して、固定接点（１２，１３，１４）の間の導通状態を切換え、ばね部材４０は、基部４０ａの、第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の中心から一方（Ｘ２）側に離れた位置で駆動体３０に当接し、基部４０ａの一端に第１の弾性部４０ｂが、また他端に第２の弾性部４０ｃが一体的に設けられ、ケース１１内に、基部４０ａの一端が第１の方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）の一方（Ｘ２）側または他方（Ｘ１）側に選択的に配置可能であり、第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃが異なる弾性力を有するよう構成した。 In the switch 100 according to the present embodiment, when the operation unit 30c is swung in one direction (X1-X2 direction) (X2 side) during operation, the driving body 30 drives the movable contact 20 to be fixed. The conduction state between the contacts (12, 13, 14) is switched, and the spring member 40 is driven at a position away from the center of the base portion 40a in the first direction (X1-X2 direction) to one side (X2). 30, a first elastic portion 40 b is integrally provided at one end of the base portion 40 a, and a second elastic portion 40 c is integrally provided at the other end. In the case 11, one end of the base portion 40 a is in the first direction ( The first elastic portion 40b and the second elastic portion 40c can be selectively arranged on one (X2) side or the other (X1) side in the X1-X2 direction), and have different elastic forces.
これにより、ばね部材４０は、基部４０ａの長手方向の中心から離れた位置で駆動体３０に当接して付勢力を付与しており、基部４０ａの一端に第１の弾性部４０ｂが、また他端に第２の弾性部４０ｃが一体的に設けられ、第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃが異なる弾性力を有している。駆動体３０が受ける付勢力は当接している部分に近い側の弾性部が有する弾性力の影響が大きいため、ばね部材４０の向きを変えることで駆動体３０に与える付勢力を変えることができる。従って、異なる動作力に対応することができる揺動操作型のスイッチを提供することができる。 As a result, the spring member 40 abuts against the driving body 30 at a position away from the longitudinal center of the base portion 40a to apply a biasing force, and the first elastic portion 40b is provided at one end of the base portion 40a. The second elastic portion 40c is integrally provided at the end, and the first elastic portion 40b and the second elastic portion 40c have different elastic forces. Since the urging force received by the drive body 30 is greatly affected by the elastic force of the elastic portion near the contacting portion, the urging force applied to the drive body 30 can be changed by changing the direction of the spring member 40. . Therefore, it is possible to provide a swing operation type switch that can cope with different operating forces.
また、本実施形態のスイッチ１００では、ばね部材４０が板ばねで構成されるようにした。 Moreover, in the switch 100 of this embodiment, the spring member 40 was comprised with the leaf | plate spring.
これにより、ばね部材４０が板状なので駆動体３０との当接が安定するので、安定した動作力を付与することができる。 Thereby, since the spring member 40 is plate-shaped, the contact with the driving body 30 is stable, so that a stable operating force can be applied.
また、本実施形態のスイッチ１００では、ばね部材４０は、基部４０ａから延設された延設部（４０ｄ，４０ｅ）を折り返すことで第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃが一体的に形成されるよう構成した。 In the switch 100 of the present embodiment, the first elastic portion 40b and the second elastic portion 40c are integrated with each other by folding back the extended portions (40d, 40e) extended from the base portion 40a. It was configured to be formed.
これにより、基部４０ａから延設された延設部（４０ｄ，４０ｅ）を折り返すことで第１の弾性部４０ｂと第２の弾性部４０ｃを形成しているので、簡単な構造でばね部材４０を構成することができる。 Thereby, since the 1st elastic part 40b and the 2nd elastic part 40c are formed by folding up the extension part (40d, 40e) extended from the base 40a, the spring member 40 can be formed with a simple structure. Can be configured.
また、本実施形態のスイッチ１００では、第１の弾性部４０ｂの長さＬ１と第２の弾性部４０ｃの長さＬ２とが異なるよう構成した。 Further, the switch 100 of the present embodiment is configured such that the length L1 of the first elastic portion 40b and the length L2 of the second elastic portion 40c are different.
これにより、折り返して形成された第１の弾性部４０ｂの長さＬ１と第２の弾性部４０ｃの長さＬ２を変えることで短い方に大きな弾性力を、また長い方に小さな弾性力を設定することができる。また長さを変更することによって簡単に弾性力を設定することができる。 As a result, by changing the length L1 of the first elastic portion 40b and the length L2 of the second elastic portion 40c formed by folding, a larger elastic force is set for the shorter one and a smaller elastic force is set for the longer one. can do. Further, the elastic force can be easily set by changing the length.
また、本実施形態のスイッチ１００は、基部４０ａと第１の弾性部４０ｂとの角度（θ１）と、基部４０ａと第２の弾性部４０ｃとの角度（θ２）が異なるよう構成した。 Further, the switch 100 of the present embodiment is configured such that the angle (θ1) between the base portion 40a and the first elastic portion 40b and the angle (θ2) between the base portion 40a and the second elastic portion 40c are different.
これにより、折り返して形成された第１の弾性部４０ｂの折り返し角度（θ１）と第２の弾性部４０ｃの折り返し角度（θ２）を変えることで、角度の大きい側に大きな弾性力を、また小さい側に小さな弾性力を設定することができる。また、折り曲げ角度を変更することによって簡単に弾性力を設定することができる。 As a result, by changing the folding angle (θ1) of the first elastic portion 40b formed by folding and the folding angle (θ2) of the second elastic portion 40c, a large elastic force can be applied to the larger angle side and the small angle can be reduced. A small elastic force can be set on the side. Further, the elastic force can be easily set by changing the bending angle.
また、本実施形態のスイッチユニット２００は、操作部３０ｃが互いに操作方向（Ｘ１‐Ｘ２方向）に隣接し駆動体３０が互いに離れる向きに揺動するように、スイッチ１００を２つ組み合わせ、一体的に形成した構成とした。 Further, the switch unit 200 of the present embodiment combines two switches 100 so that the operation unit 30c is adjacent to each other in the operation direction (X1-X2 direction) and the drive body 30 swings away from each other. It was set as the structure formed in.
