An engine starting device includes a board on which a pin header serving as an on-board component is mounted, a case member that has a tubular shape and that is disposed so as to surround the board, and an antenna coil that is disposed in the case member and that is electrically connected to an antenna terminal partly embedded in the pin header serving as an on-board component.

Engine starting device and method for manufacturing the same

An engine start switch includes, a case member which includes a tubular support portion having an opening portion formed on the front side, a slide member which is slidably supported in a front-rear direction in the inner portion of the tubular support portion, an operation member which is connected to the front side of the slide member, and is movably supported in the front-rear direction in front of the tubular support portion, an annular coil antenna configured to radiate a radio wave signal forward, a wiring substrate which is electrically connected to the coil antenna, and detection means for detecting a rearward movement of the operation member. The coil antenna is attached to the front side of the wiring substrate to configure an antenna substrate assembly, and the antenna substrate assembly is attached to the case member to be positioned between the slide member and the operation member.

Engine start switch

A push-button switch includes a wiring board having a first surface on which electronic components are mounted. The push-button switch is used for an immobilizer system and supplies power to a portable device from the first surface side of the wiring board. The push-button switch includes a coil antenna and a conductor pattern. The coil antenna includes a magnetic core and a coil conductor wound around the magnetic core. The coil antenna is attached to a second surface of the wiring board. The conductor pattern is formed in at least one wiring layer so as to surround the coil conductor in plan view. The wiring board has an inner layer including the at least one wiring layer. A direction of current flowing through the coil conductor is the same as a direction of current flowing through the conductor pattern.

Push-button switch

An engine start switch includes a substrate on which electronic components are mounted, a case which is formed in a cylindrical shape by a peripheral wall portion surrounding the substrate and of which at least one end portion is opened, and a support member that supports the substrate in the case and extends toward the open end of the case from one end portion thereof supporting the substrate. The support member includes an outer surface that faces an inner surface of the peripheral wall portion with a gap interposed therebetween, and a gap at the one end portion of the support member is wider than a gap at other portions excluding at least the one end of the support member.
