Abstract
A switch which provides different switching inputs by pushing different operating portions of a single operating button is disclosed. The switch comprises an operating button the periphery of which has a plurality of operating portions, a support provided at the center of the rear portion of the button, a casing having a plurality of through-holes defined opposite the operating portions of the button, and a plurality of operating shafts received in the through-holes. The rear surface of the button has bosses in and out of point-contact with the operating shafts. Although the bosses are rotated about the support for the button, the operating shafts receives simple axial forces. This secures good operation of the switch.
