摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To protect a switch even in the case an excessive load acts on an operation portion of the switch to which a waterproofing countermeasure is applied.;SOLUTION: A switch case 76 is arranged and installed on a base member. The switch case 76 has an opening at which a switch 7 is arranged and installed, and is occluded by a switch cap 68 composed of an elastic material at the periphery, and invasion of water drops or the like into the switch case by the switch cap is prevented. In this constitution, a switch plate 77 is interposed between a switch button 71 and the switch cap 68, and in the case the door switch button 71 is pressure operated, because the load goes from the switch plate 77 to a base member 3, an operated stroke amount of the switch button 71 is regulated by the switch plate 77 and it is prevented that the load more than necessary acts on the switch 7.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
