Abstract: A multidirectional operating switch of the present invention includes a case having a substantially box shape and including a central cylindrical portion provided at substantially the center and a plurality of outer peripheral cylindrical portions provided at substantially equal angular intervals around the central cylindrical portion. The multidirectional operating switch includes an operation body held by the case so as to be pivotable in two or more directions and a wiring substrate arranged below the operation body. The multidirectional operating switch includes a switch contact provided on the wiring substrate of which electrical contact/separation is performed according to pivoting operation of the operation body and a light-emitting device mounted on the wiring substrate. A light through hole is provided on an upper surface of the central cylindrical portion and the light-emitting device is arranged below the central cylindrical portion.

Abstract: A switch device includes a box-shaped case, a harness portion, and a fixing member. The harness portion is connected to a switch contact point and includes a plurality of lead lines extending out of the case. The case includes a holding body and a guide portion. The holding body includes a fixing portion protruding from an outer face of the case and provided on a tip side, and a through-hole provided under the fixing portion. The guide portion is opposed to the through-hole and formed in a substantially concave curve shape. The guide portion is formed such that an end portion further from the through-hole is positioned to be above an end portion closer to the through-hole. The fixing member extends through the through-hole and fixes the harness portion to the holding body by winding the harness portion and the fixing portion together.

Abstract: A method for electrically connecting an upper wiring with a lower wiring consists of the steps of arranging the upper wiring mixed with thermo-softening material on an upper insulating sheet, arranging the lower wiring mixed with thermo-softening material on a lower insulating sheet, putting the upper insulating sheet on the lower insulating sheet to bring the upper wiring into contact with the lower wiring, and providing ultrasonic vibration to the upper and lower wirings and the upper insulating sheet while pushing the upper insulating sheet toward the lower insulating sheet. In these steps, the upper and lower wirings and the upper insulating sheet are heated and melted because friction heat is generated by the ultrasonic vibration. Thereafter, the upper insulating sheet is pushed into the upper and lower wirings while pushing these wirings aside and is boded with the lower insulating sheet. Also, the upper wiring is bonded with the lower wiring so that these wirings are electrically connected.
