Operating switch unit for use in automotive vehicle
Abstract:
A switch panel including a switch unit is mounted on a dashboard of an automotive vehicle. The switch unit has switches for operating devices mounted on the vehicle and ornamental members disposed between the switches. The ornamental member is composed of a base portion and a portion extending from the base portion. Front surfaces of the extending portion and the base portion are covered with an ornamental light-reflecting layer. The front surface of the extending portion is positioned flush with a touch surface of the switch. The front surface of the base portion is sloped so that light incident thereon is reflected toward a direction not in parallel to a gap formed between the extending portion and the switch. The light reflected on the sloped surface is invisible while the front surface of the extending portion is clearly visible, enhancing ornamental design effects of the switch unit.
