　本開示の実施例を具体的に説明する前に、本実施例の概要を説明する。本実施例は、調光器等の操作装置に関する。操作装置は、回動可能な非絶縁性の操作つまみと、押圧可能な釦とを備える。操作つまみに対する絶縁性を確保するために、操作つまみは、絶縁性を有する操作つまみカバーで覆われる。また、操作つまみカバーが操作つまみから脱落すること、釦が通常時に押圧されることを防止するために、操作つまみカバーの脱落を防止しながら釦を覆う化粧カバーが取り付けられる。 Before concretely explaining the embodiment of the present disclosure, the outline of the present embodiment will be described. This embodiment relates to an operating device such as a dimmer. The operating device includes a rotatable non-insulating operating knob and a pressable button. In order to ensure insulation against the operation knob, the operation knob is covered with an insulating operation knob cover. Further, in order to prevent the operation knob cover from falling off from the operation knob and the button from being pressed at normal times, a decorative cover covering the button is attached while preventing the operation knob cover from falling off.
　化粧カバーを取り外すと、釦への押圧が可能になる。しかしながら、その状態において操作つまみカバーが脱落しやすくなり、操作つまみが露出するおそれがある。本実施例に係る操作装置では、操作つまみカバーが操作つまみから脱落することを防止しながら、釦への押圧を可能にする内部カバーが取り付けられ、内部カバーを覆うように化粧カバーが取り付けられる。化粧カバーは釦を覆う。このような構造において、化粧カバーを取り外すと、釦への押圧が可能になるが、操作つまみカバーは脱落しない。 When the cosmetic cover is removed, the button can be pressed. However, in that state, the operation knob cover is likely to fall off, and the operation knob may be exposed. In the operation device according to the present embodiment, an inner cover that enables pressing on the button is attached while preventing the operation knob cover from falling off from the operation knob, and a decorative cover is attached so as to cover the inner cover. The decorative cover covers the button. In such a structure, when the decorative cover is removed, the button can be pressed, but the operation knob cover does not fall off.
　操作装置における状態通知を可能にするために、操作装置に光源が設けられる。しかしながら、内部カバーと化粧カバーの２重構造とする場合、光源からの光が操作装置の外部に届きにくくなる。光源からの光を導光するために専用の導光板を設ければよいが、小型化が求められる操作装置に、専用の導光板を設けることは困難である。本実施例に係る操作装置では、化粧カバーに貫通孔を設けるとともに、透過性を有する材料により内部カバーが生成される。光源からの光は、内部カバーを透過して、化粧カバーの貫通孔から外部に出力される。以下の説明において、「平行」、「垂直」は、完全な平行、垂直だけではなく、誤差の範囲で平行、垂直からずれている場合も含む。また、「略」は、おおよその範囲で同一であるという意味である。 A light source is provided in the operating device to enable status notification in the operating device. However, in the case of the double structure of the inner cover and the decorative cover, it becomes difficult for the light from the light source to reach the outside of the operating device. A dedicated light guide plate may be provided to guide the light from the light source, but it is difficult to provide a dedicated light guide plate for an operation device that is required to be miniaturized. In the operating device according to the present embodiment, the decorative cover is provided with a through hole, and the inner cover is generated by a transparent material. The light from the light source passes through the inner cover and is output to the outside through the through hole of the decorative cover. In the following description, "parallel" and "vertical" include not only perfectly parallel and vertical, but also cases of deviation from parallel and vertical within the margin of error. In addition, "abbreviation" means that they are the same in an approximate range.

The operating device 1000 is a dimmer for controlling the lighting load to a lighting state, an extinguishing state, or a dimming state. The operating device 1000 is not limited to the dimmer, and may be a switch for controlling the ventilation fan load.
　図１（ａ）－（ｃ）に示すように、ｘ軸、ｙ軸、ｚ軸からなる直交座標系が規定される。ｘ軸、ｙ軸は互いに直交する。ｚ軸は、ｘ軸およびｙ軸に垂直であり、操作装置１０００の高さ方向に延びる。また、ｘ軸、ｙ軸、ｚ軸のそれぞれの正の方向は、図１（ａ）－（ｃ）における矢印の方向に規定され、負の方向は、矢印と逆向きの方向に規定される。ｚ軸の正方向を「上方」、「上側」ということもあり、ｚ軸の負方向を「下方」、「下側」ということもある。ｘ軸の正方向を「前方」、「前側」ということもあり、ｘ軸の負方向を「後方」、「後側」ということもある。ｙ軸の正方向を「右方」、「右側」ということもあり、ｙ軸の負方向を「左方」、「左側」ということもある。そのため、ｚ軸は上下方向に延びる軸であり、ｘ軸は前後方向に延びる軸であり、ｙ軸は左右方向に延びる軸である。 As shown in FIGS. 1 (a)-(c), an orthogonal coordinate system including an x-axis, a y-axis, and a z-axis is defined. The x-axis and y-axis are orthogonal to each other. The z-axis is perpendicular to the x-axis and the y-axis and extends in the height direction of the operating device 1000. Further, the positive directions of the x-axis, the y-axis, and the z-axis are defined in the directions of the arrows in FIGS. 1 (a)-(c), and the negative directions are defined in the directions opposite to the arrows. .. The positive direction of the z-axis may be referred to as "upper" or "upper", and the negative direction of the z-axis may be referred to as "lower" or "lower". The positive direction of the x-axis may be referred to as "forward" and "front side", and the negative direction of the x-axis may be referred to as "rear" and "rear side". The positive direction of the y-axis may be referred to as "right" or "right", and the negative direction of the y-axis may be referred to as "left" or "left". Therefore, the z-axis is an axis extending in the vertical direction, the x-axis is an axis extending in the front-rear direction, and the y-axis is an axis extending in the left-right direction.
　操作装置１０００は、本体１００、回動軸２００、操作つまみカバー３００、内部カバー４００、化粧カバー５００を含む。本体１００は、前側に配置される前側本体１１０と、後側に配置される後側本体１１２とが組み合わされた箱形形状を有する。本体１００の内部の構造は後述し、本体１００の前側には矩形状の前面パネル１２０がｙ－ｚ平面に広がる。前面パネル１２０の外周縁部は、上側壁部１４０、左側壁部１４２、下側壁部１４４、右側壁部１４６により囲まれる。上側壁部１４０、左側壁部１４２、下側壁部１４４、右側壁部１４６は、いずれも前面パネル１２０から前側に向かって突出し、壁部と総称されることもある。上側壁部１４０は、前面パネル１２０の上側部分に配置されて左右方向に延び、左側壁部１４２は、前面パネル１２０の左側部分に配置されて上下方向に延びる。下側壁部１４４は、前面パネル１２０の下側部分に配置されて左右方向に延び、右側壁部１４６は、前面パネル１２０の右側部分に配置されて上下方向に延びる。 The operating device 1000 includes a main body 100, a rotating shaft 200, an operating knob cover 300, an internal cover 400, and a decorative cover 500. The main body 100 has a box shape in which a front main body 110 arranged on the front side and a rear main body 112 arranged on the rear side are combined. The internal structure of the main body 100 will be described later, and a rectangular front panel 120 extends in the yz plane on the front side of the main body 100. The outer peripheral edge portion of the front panel 120 is surrounded by the upper side wall portion 140, the left side wall portion 142, the lower side wall portion 144, and the right side wall portion 146. The upper side wall portion 140, the left side wall portion 142, the lower side wall portion 144, and the right side wall portion 146 all project toward the front side from the front panel 120 and may be collectively referred to as a wall portion. The upper side wall portion 140 is arranged on the upper side portion of the front panel 120 and extends in the left-right direction, and the left side wall portion 142 is arranged on the left side portion of the front panel 120 and extends in the vertical direction. The lower side wall portion 144 is arranged in the lower portion of the front panel 120 and extends in the left-right direction, and the right side wall portion 146 is arranged in the right side portion of the front panel 120 and extends in the vertical direction.
　前面パネル１２０の中央部分には、前側に向かって突出する棒形状の回動軸２００が配置される。回動軸２００は、ｙ－ｚ平面内において回転可能な軸であり、非絶縁部材、例えば黄銅により形成される。回動軸２００を回転させることによって、例えば照明負荷の調光制御がなされる。回動軸２００は、操作つまみカバー３００により前側から覆われる。操作つまみカバー３００は、後側に向かって広がる筒形状であって、かつ前側が閉じた筒形状を有する。操作つまみカバー３００は、絶縁部材、例えば樹脂により形成される。ユーザは、操作つまみカバー３００をつまんで回転させることによって、回動軸２００も回転する。 A rod-shaped rotating shaft 200 projecting toward the front side is arranged in the central portion of the front panel 120. The rotating shaft 200 is a shaft that can rotate in the yz plane and is formed of a non-insulating member, for example, brass. By rotating the rotation shaft 200, for example, dimming control of the lighting load is performed. The rotation shaft 200 is covered from the front side by the operation knob cover 300. The operation knob cover 300 has a tubular shape that expands toward the rear side and has a tubular shape that is closed on the front side. The operation knob cover 300 is formed of an insulating member, for example, a resin. The user also rotates the rotation shaft 200 by pinching and rotating the operation knob cover 300.
　内部カバー４００は、ｙ－ｚ平面に広がる板形状を有し、前面パネル１２０を前側から覆うとともに、本体１００の前側本体１１０に取り付けられる。内部カバー４００の前側本体１１０への取付については後述する。内部カバー４００の中央部分には、円形状に開口する内側貫通孔４１０が配置される。内側貫通孔４１０には、回動軸２００に取り付けられた操作つまみカバー３００が挿入される。また、内側貫通孔４１０の開口の半径は、操作つまみカバー３００の後側端の半径よりも小さくされるので、操作つまみカバー３００の前側への移動が抑制される。つまり、内部カバー４００が本体１００に取り付けられていれば、操作つまみカバー３００が回動軸２００から外れる状況の発生は抑制される。 The inner cover 400 has a plate shape extending in the yz plane, covers the front panel 120 from the front side, and is attached to the front main body 110 of the main body 100. The attachment of the inner cover 400 to the front main body 110 will be described later. An inner through hole 410 that opens in a circular shape is arranged in the central portion of the inner cover 400. The operation knob cover 300 attached to the rotating shaft 200 is inserted into the inner through hole 410. Further, since the radius of the opening of the inner through hole 410 is smaller than the radius of the rear end of the operation knob cover 300, the movement of the operation knob cover 300 to the front side is suppressed. That is, if the inner cover 400 is attached to the main body 100, the occurrence of a situation in which the operation knob cover 300 is detached from the rotation shaft 200 is suppressed.
　化粧カバー５００は、ｙ－ｚ平面に広がる板形状を有し、内部カバー４００を前側から覆うとともに、本体１００の前側本体１１０に取り付けられる。化粧カバー５００の前側本体１１０への取付については後述するが、化粧カバー５００は、内部カバー４００を挟みながら本体１００に取り付けられる。化粧カバー５００の中央部分には、円形状に開口する外側貫通孔５１０が配置される。外側貫通孔５１０には、回動軸２００に取り付けられた操作つまみカバー３００が挿入される。 The decorative cover 500 has a plate shape extending in the yz plane, covers the inner cover 400 from the front side, and is attached to the front main body 110 of the main body 100. The attachment of the decorative cover 500 to the front main body 110 will be described later, but the decorative cover 500 is attached to the main body 100 while sandwiching the inner cover 400. An outer through hole 510 that opens in a circular shape is arranged in the central portion of the decorative cover 500. The operation knob cover 300 attached to the rotating shaft 200 is inserted into the outer through hole 510.
　化粧カバー５００の外周縁部には、上側突出片５４０、左側突出片５４２、下側突出片５４４、右側突出片５４６が配置される。上側突出片５４０、左側突出片５４２、下側突出片５４４、右側突出片５４６は、いずれも後側に向かって突出し、突出片と総称されることもある。上側突出片５４０は、化粧カバー５００の上側部分に配置されて左右方向に延び、左側突出片５４２は、化粧カバー５００の左側部分に配置されて上下方向に延びる。下側突出片５４４は、化粧カバー５００の下側部分に配置されて左右方向に延び、右側突出片５４６は、化粧カバー５００の右側部分に配置されて上下方向に延びる。化粧カバー５００が本体１００に取り付けられた状態において、上側突出片５４０は上側壁部１４０を覆い、左側突出片５４２は左側壁部１４２を覆い、下側突出片５４４は下側壁部１４４を覆い、右側突出片５４６は右側壁部１４６を覆う。 An upper protruding piece 540, a left protruding piece 542, a lower protruding piece 544, and a right protruding piece 546 are arranged on the outer peripheral edge of the decorative cover 500. The upper projecting piece 540, the left projecting piece 542, the lower projecting piece 544, and the right projecting piece 546 all project toward the rear side and may be collectively referred to as a projecting piece. The upper protruding piece 540 is arranged on the upper portion of the decorative cover 500 and extends in the left-right direction, and the left protruding piece 542 is arranged on the left side portion of the decorative cover 500 and extends in the vertical direction. The lower protruding piece 544 is arranged in the lower portion of the decorative cover 500 and extends in the left-right direction, and the right protruding piece 546 is arranged in the right portion of the decorative cover 500 and extends in the vertical direction. In the state where the decorative cover 500 is attached to the main body 100, the upper protruding piece 540 covers the upper side wall portion 140, the left side protruding piece 542 covers the left side wall portion 142, and the lower protruding piece 544 covers the lower side wall portion 144. The right protruding piece 546 covers the right wall portion 146.
　本体１００の内側には、電子回路基板２１０と総称される第１電子回路基板２１０ａ、第２電子回路基板２１０ｂが含まれ、第１電子回路基板２１０ａが第２電子回路基板２１０ｂの上側に配置される。第１電子回路基板２１０ａと第２電子回路基板２１０ｂは、ｘ－ｙ平面に広がる板形状を有し、前面パネル１２０から後側に向かう方向に沿って配置される。第１電子回路基板２１０ａと第２電子回路基板２１０ｂは、回動軸２００を挟みながら接続する。 Inside the main body 100, a first electronic circuit board 210a and a second electronic circuit board 210b collectively referred to as an electronic circuit board 210 are included, and the first electronic circuit board 210a is arranged above the second electronic circuit board 210b. To. The first electronic circuit board 210a and the second electronic circuit board 210b have a plate shape extending in an xy plane, and are arranged along the direction from the front panel 120 toward the rear side. The first electronic circuit board 210a and the second electronic circuit board 210b are connected while sandwiching the rotation shaft 200.
　回動軸２００は、固定部材２０２により前側本体１１０に固定される。固定部材２０２は、ナットであり、前面パネル１２０と内部カバー４００との間に配置される。固定部材２０２は、回動軸２００を回転させたときの応力を受けるので、当該応力は、電子回路基板２１０に伝達されない。その結果、電子回路基板２１０をｙ－ｚ平面に広がる向きに配置しなくても、回動軸２００と電子回路基板２１０との接続は維持される。 The rotating shaft 200 is fixed to the front main body 110 by the fixing member 202. The fixing member 202 is a nut and is arranged between the front panel 120 and the inner cover 400. Since the fixing member 202 receives the stress when the rotation shaft 200 is rotated, the stress is not transmitted to the electronic circuit board 210. As a result, the connection between the rotation shaft 200 and the electronic circuit board 210 is maintained even if the electronic circuit board 210 is not arranged so as to spread in the yz plane.
　第２電子回路基板２１０ｂには設定釦２２０が配置される。設定釦２２０の前には、前面パネル１２０の釦領域１３０が配置される。釦領域１３０は、前側から押圧可能な領域であり、設定釦２２０に対するカバーといえる。内部カバー４００は、釦領域１３０に対応した位置に貫通領域４２０を有する。貫通領域４２０は、例えば、切り欠きであるが、貫通孔であってもよい。化粧カバー５００を本体１００から取り外した状態において、ユーザは、貫通領域４２０を介して釦領域１３０を押圧可能である。また、化粧カバー５００は、本体１００に取り付けられた場合、釦領域１３０と貫通領域４２０とを覆う。 A setting button 220 is arranged on the second electronic circuit board 210b. A button area 130 of the front panel 120 is arranged in front of the setting button 220. The button area 130 is an area that can be pressed from the front side, and can be said to be a cover for the setting button 220. The inner cover 400 has a penetration region 420 at a position corresponding to the button region 130. The penetration region 420 is, for example, a notch, but may be a through hole. With the decorative cover 500 removed from the main body 100, the user can press the button area 130 via the penetration area 420. Further, when the decorative cover 500 is attached to the main body 100, the decorative cover 500 covers the button area 130 and the penetrating area 420.
　本体１００の内側において、第１電子回路基板２１０ａには光源２３０が配置される。光源２３０は、例えば、ＬＥＤ（Ｌｉｇｈｔ　Ｅｍｉｔｔｉｎｇ　Ｄｉｏｄｅ）である。前面パネル１２０には、光源２３０に対応した位置に第１貫通孔１７０が配置され、化粧カバー５００には、光源２３０に対応した位置に第２貫通孔５７０が配置される。また、内部カバー４００には、光源２３０に対応した位置に第１突出部４７０と第２突出部４７２が配置される。第１突出部４７０は、棒形状を有して後側に向かって延び、第２突出部４７２は、棒形状を有して前側に延びる。内部カバー４００と化粧カバー５００とを本体１００に取り付けた場合に、第１突出部４７０は第１貫通孔１７０に挿入され、第２突出部４７２は第２貫通孔５７０に挿入される。 Inside the main body 100, a light source 230 is arranged on the first electronic circuit board 210a. The light source 230 is, for example, an LED (Light Emitting Diode). The front panel 120 has a first through hole 170 arranged at a position corresponding to the light source 230, and the decorative cover 500 has a second through hole 570 arranged at a position corresponding to the light source 230. Further, on the inner cover 400, the first protruding portion 470 and the second protruding portion 472 are arranged at positions corresponding to the light source 230. The first protrusion 470 has a rod shape and extends toward the rear side, and the second protrusion 472 has a rod shape and extends toward the front side. When the inner cover 400 and the decorative cover 500 are attached to the main body 100, the first protruding portion 470 is inserted into the first through hole 170, and the second protruding portion 472 is inserted into the second through hole 570.
　ここで、内部カバー４００は、透過性を有する材料により形成されているので、内部カバー４００は、光源２３０から放射された光を第１突出部４７０と第２突出部４７２とを介して外部に導光する。さらに、内部カバー４００は、第２突出部４７２の周囲に溝部４７４を有する。図４は、内部カバー４００による導光を示す。図示のごとく、光源２３０から放射された光は、第１突出部４７０と第２突出部４７２により前側に導光される。溝部４７４は、第１突出部４７０から入射された光が、第２突出部４７２以外の方向に拡散されることを抑制する。 Here, since the inner cover 400 is made of a transparent material, the inner cover 400 allows the light radiated from the light source 230 to the outside via the first protrusion 470 and the second protrusion 472. Guide light. Further, the inner cover 400 has a groove 474 around the second protrusion 472. FIG. 4 shows the light guide by the inner cover 400. As shown in the figure, the light emitted from the light source 230 is guided to the front side by the first protrusion 470 and the second protrusion 472. The groove portion 474 suppresses the light incident from the first protruding portion 470 from being diffused in a direction other than the second protruding portion 472.
　図５（ａ）－（ｂ）は、操作装置１０００の別の構造を示す。図５（ａ）は、内部カバー４００と化粧カバー５００とを本体１００に取り付けた場合の断面図である。図３（ａ）に示すように、内部カバー４００は、後側に向かって延びる第１取付爪４８０、第２取付爪（図示せず）、第３取付爪４８４を含む。また、図２（ｃ）に示されるように、前面パネル１２０は、第１取付孔１８０、第２取付孔１８２、第３取付孔１８４を含む。ここで、第１取付爪４８０と第１取付孔１８０、第２取付爪と第２取付孔１８２、第３取付爪４８４と第３取付孔１８４とは、互いに対応する位置に配置される。図５（ａ）に示されるように、第３取付爪４８４は第３取付孔１８４に挿入される。また、第２取付爪は第２取付孔１８２に挿入される。これにより、内部カバー４００は本体１００に取り付けられる。 FIGS. 5 (a)-(b) show another structure of the operating device 1000. FIG. 5A is a cross-sectional view when the inner cover 400 and the decorative cover 500 are attached to the main body 100. As shown in FIG. 3A, the inner cover 400 includes a first mounting claw 480, a second mounting claw (not shown), and a third mounting claw 484 extending toward the rear side. Further, as shown in FIG. 2 (c), the front panel 120 includes a first mounting hole 180, a second mounting hole 182, and a third mounting hole 184. Here, the first mounting claw 480 and the first mounting hole 180, the second mounting claw and the second mounting hole 182, and the third mounting claw 484 and the third mounting hole 184 are arranged at positions corresponding to each other. As shown in FIG. 5A, the third mounting claw 484 is inserted into the third mounting hole 184. Further, the second mounting claw is inserted into the second mounting hole 182. As a result, the inner cover 400 is attached to the main body 100.
　上側突出片５４０は、上側壁部１４０側の面に上側爪部５５０を有し、下側突出片５４４は、下側壁部１４４側の面に下側爪部５５４を有する。上側壁部１４０は、上側突出片５４０側の面に、上側爪部５５０を取り付け可能な上側孔部１５０を有し、下側壁部１４４は、下側突出片５４４側の面に、下側爪部５５４を取り付け可能な下側孔部１５４を有する。上側爪部５５０が上側孔部１５０に嵌め込まれ、下側爪部５５４が下側孔部１５４に嵌め込まれることによって、化粧カバー５００が本体１００に取り付けられる。このような状況では、化粧カバー５００を前側に引っぱっても、化粧カバー５００は本体１００から取り外されない。 The upper protruding piece 540 has an upper claw portion 550 on the surface on the upper side wall portion 140 side, and the lower protruding piece 544 has a lower claw portion 554 on the surface on the lower side wall portion 144 side. The upper side wall portion 140 has an upper hole portion 150 to which the upper claw portion 550 can be attached on the surface on the upper protruding piece 540 side, and the lower side wall portion 144 has a lower claw portion on the surface on the lower protruding piece 544 side. It has a lower hole portion 154 to which the portion 554 can be attached. The decorative cover 500 is attached to the main body 100 by fitting the upper claw portion 550 into the upper hole portion 150 and fitting the lower claw portion 554 into the lower hole portion 154. In such a situation, even if the decorative cover 500 is pulled forward, the decorative cover 500 is not removed from the main body 100.
　図５（ｂ）は、操作装置１０００を枠体６００に取り付けている場合の構造を示す。化粧カバー５００の右側突出片５４６には、取り外し溝５６０が配置される。取り外し溝５６０は、上下方向に長い開口である。取り外し溝５６０は工具６５０を挿入可能であり、取り外し溝５６０に工具６５０を挿入してから、工具６５０を右回りに回転させると、図５（ａ）の上側突出片５４０が上向きに変形し、下側突出片５４４が下向きに変形することによって、上側爪部５５０が上側孔部１５０から外れ、下側爪部５５４が下側孔部１５４から外れる。この状態で化粧カバー５００が前側に移動すると、化粧カバー５００が本体１００から取り外される。 FIG. 5B shows a structure when the operating device 1000 is attached to the frame body 600. A removal groove 560 is arranged in the right protruding piece 546 of the decorative cover 500. The removal groove 560 is a vertically long opening. The tool 650 can be inserted into the removal groove 560, and when the tool 650 is inserted into the removal groove 560 and then the tool 650 is rotated clockwise, the upper protruding piece 540 in FIG. 5A is deformed upward. By deforming the lower protruding piece 544 downward, the upper claw portion 550 is disengaged from the upper hole portion 150, and the lower claw portion 554 is disengaged from the lower hole portion 154. When the decorative cover 500 moves to the front side in this state, the decorative cover 500 is removed from the main body 100.
　本開示の実施例によれば、化粧カバー５００を取り外しても内部カバー４００が配置されるので、操作つまみカバー３００が外れることを防止できる。また、化粧カバー５００を取り外した場合に、内部カバー４００の貫通領域４２０により釦領域１３０が露出するので、釦領域１３０を押圧できる。また、化粧カバー５００を取り外すと、貫通領域４２０を有する内部カバー４００が配置されるので、操作つまみカバー３００が外れることを防止しながら、釦領域１３０を押圧できる。また、操作つまみカバー３００が外れることが防止されながら、釦領域１３０が押圧可能であるので、化粧カバー５００が取り付けられた構造における操作性を向上できる。 According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the inner cover 400 is arranged even if the decorative cover 500 is removed, it is possible to prevent the operation knob cover 300 from coming off. Further, when the decorative cover 500 is removed, the button area 130 is exposed by the penetrating area 420 of the inner cover 400, so that the button area 130 can be pressed. Further, when the decorative cover 500 is removed, the internal cover 400 having the penetration region 420 is arranged, so that the button region 130 can be pressed while preventing the operation knob cover 300 from coming off. Further, since the button area 130 can be pressed while the operation knob cover 300 is prevented from coming off, the operability in the structure to which the decorative cover 500 is attached can be improved.
　また、非絶縁部材の回動軸２００を絶縁部材の操作つまみカバー３００が覆うので、非絶縁部材に触れられることを防止できる。また、操作つまみカバー３００に対する外部からの回転応力、押込応力、引張応力を回動軸２００で受けるので、本体１００内部での電子回路基板２１０の強固な固定を不要にできる。また、電子回路基板２１０は、前面パネル１２０から後側に向かう方向に沿って配置されるので、本体１００のサイズに対して、電子回路基板２１０の面積を拡大できる。また、電子回路基板２１０の面積が拡大するので、多くの電子部品を実装できる。 Further, since the rotation shaft 200 of the non-insulating member is covered with the operation knob cover 300 of the insulating member, it is possible to prevent the non-insulating member from being touched. Further, since the rotation shaft 200 receives the rotational stress, the pushing stress, and the tensile stress from the outside with respect to the operation knob cover 300, it is possible to eliminate the need for firm fixing of the electronic circuit board 210 inside the main body 100. Further, since the electronic circuit board 210 is arranged along the direction from the front panel 120 to the rear side, the area of the electronic circuit board 210 can be expanded with respect to the size of the main body 100. Further, since the area of the electronic circuit board 210 is expanded, many electronic components can be mounted.
　また、化粧カバー５００を指で外からつかんでも爪部が外れないので、化粧カバーを指で外すことを防止できる。また、化粧カバーを指で外すことが防止されるので、釦領域１３０へのいたずら操作を防止できる。また、工具６５０を挿入可能な取り外し溝５６０が配置されるので、指で挟んで外すことのできない化粧カバー５００を下から持ち上げる力により外すことができる。 Also, since the nails cannot be removed even if the decorative cover 500 is grabbed from the outside with a finger, it is possible to prevent the decorative cover from being removed with a finger. Further, since the decorative cover is prevented from being removed by a finger, it is possible to prevent a tampering operation on the button area 130. Further, since the removal groove 560 into which the tool 650 can be inserted is arranged, the decorative cover 500 which cannot be removed by being pinched by fingers can be removed by a force of lifting from below.
　また、透明な内部カバー４００に第１突出部４７０と第２突出部４７２が備えられるので、光源２３０から放射された光を外部に導光できる。また、化粧カバー５００と内部カバー４００とに覆われていても光が外部に導光されるので、化粧カバー５００が取り付けられた構造における操作性を向上できる。内部カバー４００が導光機能を有するので、小さいスペースに部品を配置でき省スペース化を実現できる。内部カバー４００は、第２突出部４７２の周囲に溝部４７４を有するので、光を効率的に導光できる。 Further, since the transparent inner cover 400 is provided with the first protruding portion 470 and the second protruding portion 472, the light radiated from the light source 230 can be guided to the outside. Further, even if the decorative cover 500 and the inner cover 400 are covered, the light is guided to the outside, so that the operability in the structure to which the decorative cover 500 is attached can be improved. Since the inner cover 400 has a light guide function, parts can be arranged in a small space and space saving can be realized. Since the inner cover 400 has a groove portion 474 around the second protrusion 472, light can be efficiently guided.
