Abstract

A purpose of the present invention is to provide a seesaw switch that has a simple structure with improved opearatability. In order to achieve the purpose, a seesaw switchincludes pressing sections each located at corresponding locations of operated sections of a pair of switch elements; a rotation operating member that is rotationally displaced; pressure transmitting members that are respectively provided between the pressing sections and operated sections; and a guide member that guides the pressure transmitting members to contacting and separating directions with respect to the operated sections, when the pressing sections are rotationally displaced. The seesaw switch also includes viscous material that is provided between the pressing sections and the pressure transmitting members. The viscous material has viscosity that allows inclination of the pressing sections toward the pressure transmitting members, while enabling the pressure transmitting members to follow the rotational displacement of the pressing sections.
