Abstract
An operation keyis fitted in a guide holeof an operation section coverwhile making contact with support piecesof a film member 10. Thus, the support piecesare pressed, widened, and then bent by an operation section 3, thus sandwiching the support piecesbetween the operation section 3and the guide hole. Here, the film member 10has an elastic force; thus, the operation keyis positioned at a substantially vertical center of the guide holeby restoring forces of the support pieces
