Abstract

A sliding space is defined between a first housing and a second housing. The slider has at least a portion arranged within a sliding space, and is configured to two-dimensionally slide within the sliding space in response to an operating force. The first housing and the slider defines an accommodation space having a point-symmetrical shape therebetween. An elastic member having a circular outer edge is arranged within the accommodation space. An outer edge of the elastic member abuts against an inner peripheral surface of the accommodation space () in a state where no operating force is applied to the slider. The elastic member is compressed by a portion of the inner peripheral surface of the accommodation space as the slider slides within the sliding space.
