Abstract:
A switch includes a first elastic member that is conductive and configured to contact the first signal pattern, a second elastic member that is conductive and configured to contact the second signal pattern, and a third elastic member that is conductive and configured to contact the third signal pattern. When a first pressing operation is performed for the press member so as to move the press member from an initial position in the pressing direction the first and second signal patterns are electrically connectable via the first and second elastic members. After the first pressing operation, when a second pressing operation is performed for the press member so as to move the press member in a direction opposite to the pressing direction by the first and second elastic members, the first to third signal patterns are electrically connectable via the first to third elastic members.
