Abstract: A composite operating device is provided having a small number of components to retain an operating member in a neutral position. A composite operating device includes an operating member that is operable to rotate and to slide a slider and a base. One of the base and the slider includes a flexible portion that is capable of elastic bending deformation relative to the other, the flexible portion including a first engagement portion. The other includes a second engagement portion that retains the slider in the neutral position by engaging with the first engagement portion. The second engagement portion presses against the first engagement portion while being displaced in the sliding direction relative to the first engagement portion to cause bending deformation of the flexible portion. The amount of deformation of the flexible portion increases with the amount of operation of the operating member in the sliding direction.

Abstract: In a mobile communication system, a base station apparatus stores setting change information which includes setup information that is changed in accordance with a prescribed event when the prescribed event occurs, timing information that specifies a timing for making a setting change, and trigger information that specifies an action based on which the base station apparatus and a mobile station apparatus compute the setting change timing for the base station apparatus and the mobile station apparatus, respectively; and transmits, in advance of occurrence of the prescribed event, the setting change information to the mobile station apparatus. When the action specified in the trigger information occurs, the mobile station apparatus and the base station apparatus each determine the setting change timing in accordance with the timing information and effect the setting change at the determined timing in accordance with the setup information.

Abstract: A composite operating device includes a base, a slider, an operating member, a detecting element that detects that the operating member has been operated to slide, and a transmission member that transmits an operating force acting on the slider to the detecting element. The slider includes a transmission member pressing portion that presses the transmission member in the sliding direction. The transmission member includes a pressed portion that is pressed against by the slider and an element pressing portion that presses the detecting element in an element pressing direction. The base includes a transmission member retaining portion that rotatably retains the transmission member so that when the pressed portion is pressed by the transmission member pressing portion in the sliding direction, the transmission member rotates and therefore causes the element pressing portion to press against the detecting element.

Abstract: A light guide is arranged between a light source and a section for illumination disposed not directly in front of the light source to introduce light irradiated from the light source onto the section for illumination. The light guide includes an incident surface disposed in front side of the light source, a light distribution surface disposed behind the section for illumination, and a reflection surface opposed to the light source. The reflection surface reflects the light transmitted through the incident surface onto an area within a given angular range around the light source. The light reflected from the reflection surface is directed onto the light distribution surface. The light guide can efficiently utilize light from a light source as illumination.
