とができる。 In a switch device having such a configuration, the first
As shown in the figure, when the pedestal 13 is not placed on the surface of the switch body 1, the protective sheet 5 forms a flat surface, and the movable contact piece 8 provided on the back surface corresponds to this. There is no short circuit between the fixed contact pieces 6 and 7, and the light emitter 9 is not lit. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, when the spigot 13 is placed on the switch body 1 according to the marks on its surface, the protective sheet 5 is pushed into the through hole 8 by the weight of the spigot 13. The fixed contact pieces 6 and 7 are short-circuited by a movable contact piece 8 provided on the back surface of the movable contact piece 8. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the movable contact piece 8 and the fixed contact pieces 6, 7 are such that the convex part 12 on the fixed contact piece 6, 7 side is fitted into the recess 11 on the movable contact piece 8 side. Therefore, it is possible to touch the light emitting body 9 without any displacement and to light up the light emitting body 9. In the lighting state of the light emitter 9, the light guide 10 provided on the protective sheet 5 is in contact with the frame 13, and the public light from the light emitter 9 is guided to the outside via the light guide 10. At this time, since the pedestal 13 is illuminated, the pedestal 13 shines as a whole, and the operating mode of the switch itself can be clearly displayed.

The conductor 10 and the light emitting body 9 can be arranged at any position as long as they can illuminate the spigot 13 during operation of the switch itself. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, it is only necessary to be able to illuminate the frame 13 outside.

Further, as the switch, a pressure sensitive element whose electrical resistance value changes depending on a change in pressure may be used. In addition, the rod body may have any shape other than the spherical shape as long as it is light-transmissive.

の実用上の価値の大なるものである。 As described above, the present invention provides a flexible sheet on the surface of the mounting base so as to close a recess provided in the mounting base, and a switch member is placed in the space closed by the flexible sheet. A weight body made of a light-transmitting material placed on the flexible sheet is illuminated from below by the light of the light emitting body lit by the switch member to operate the switch member. As a result, the switch member can be operated simply by placing the weight on the flexible sheet, and the corresponding weight as an operation knob can be used as if it were emitting light from inside itself. The operating status of the switch itself can be clearly indicated by illumination. Therefore, although the control knob does not protrude when not in use, the weight body as the control knob protrudes when in use, and the appearance of the device changes between when it is in use and when it is not in use, making it difficult to use, especially in dark places. It has great practical value, as the weight body itself can emit light, enhancing its design effect.
