Abstract: An input device includes a contact board, a rotary click cam, and fixed electrodes. The contact board is placed on a front surface of a touchscreen panel. The rotary click cam is provided rotatably around a rotational axis with respect to the contact board. The fixed electrodes are arranged on a lower surface of the contact board. The fixed electrodes are configured to, as the rotary click cam is operated, be switched from an electrically conductive state into an electrically non-conductive state, or vice versa. The fixed electrode includes a first shifted portion shifted by a first predetermined distance with respect to the fixed electrode. The fixed electrode includes a second shifted portion shifted by a second predetermined distance with respect to the fixed electrode.

Abstract: An input device includes: a first electrode; a support body that supports the first electrode; a fixed body fixed above the support body; a second electrode; a movable body that holds the second electrode in a state where the second electrode faces the first electrode with a predetermined space being provided therebetween, and causes the second electrode to approach and recede from the first electrode in a movement direction by rotating; an operation body that is fixed movably relative to the fixed body in a state where the operation body is engaged with the movable body, and causes, by being operated by a user, the movable body to rotate; and a biasing part that is disposed between the movable body and the fixed body, and applies, to the movable body, a biasing force toward the support body.

Abstract: An input device includes a rotary part having an opening, a pressing member configured to transmit light through a first region, a rotary electrode part including a first electrode element, a holding electrode part including a second electrode element that is configured to be brought into contact with and separated from the first electrode element by rotation of the rotary electrode part, a first detection electrode part disposed so as to face the holding electrode part, and a substrate in which the first detection electrode part is disposed. The substrate and the pressing member transmit light through the first region.

Abstract: An input device is provided which is configured such that no matter which position on an operation surface is pushed, the detection sensitivity of the pushing load is suppressed from varying due to different operation positions on the operation surface. An input device includes a first pressing member, a second pressing member, and a substrate. The first pressing member has an operation surface and a first axis and is tiltable around the first axis by the operation surface being pushed. The second pressing member has a second shaft and is tiltable around the second shaft by being pushed by a tilt of the first pressing member. The substrate includes at least one pressure sensor which is to be pushed by the second pressing member. A position of the first axis in the first pressing member is variable in accordance with a pushed position on the operation surface.

Abstract: An input device includes a fixed electrode, a reference electrode, a switch electrode, an operating member, and a moving electrode. The moving electrode is provided for the operating member and is movable integrally with the operating member. The moving electrode includes a first connection portion and a second connection portion. Subjecting the operating member to no press operation keeps the moving electrode out of contact with the fixed electrode, the reference electrode, or the switch electrode. Subjecting the operating member to a press operation brings the first connection portion into contact with the reference electrode and then brings the second connection portion into contact with the switch electrode.

Abstract: An input device includes: a first electrode including a reference potential electrode and two or more sets each including a transmission electrode and a reception electrode; and a second electrode that approaches and recedes from the two or more sets by rotating while facing the first electrode with a predetermined space being provided therebetween. The reference potential electrode faces at least a portion of the second electrode as a result of the second electrode approaching at least one set out of the two or more sets. A phase when a first set of first transmission and reception electrodes disposed in a first region approaches and recedes from the second electrode is different from a phase when a second set of second transmission and reception electrodes disposed in a second region approaches and recedes from the second electrode.

Abstract: A press-type input device includes a first pressing member, a second pressing member, a base, and a holding member. The first pressing member has a pressure receiving surface and a first axis and is tiltable around the first axis. The second pressing member has a second axis and is tiltable around the second axis. The base includes a detection unit configured to detect a tilt of the second pressing member. The holding member is configured to hold, together with the base, the first pressing member and the second pressing member. A location of at least one of the first axis or the second axis is variable in accordance with a pushed location on the pressure receiving surface. When viewed in a direction vertical to the pressure receiving surface, the second axis and the detection unit do not overlap each other.
