Abstract: A roof console device for a vehicle is formed by fixing a console housing to a lower face of a front portion of a vehicle roof, inserting from below a roof module into a housing portion formed in the console housing, and joining them by concavo-convex engagement. A backward facing wall face of the roof module and a forward facing wall face of the console housing oppose each other across a gap. A recess portion is formed in one of the backward facing and forward facing wall faces, and a projecting portion is formed on the other. Therefore, even if the concavo-convex engagement is disengaged due to an impact of a secondary collision, the console housing moves and the recess and projecting portions are fitted together to thus allow the roof module to be retained by the console housing, thereby preventing the roof module from falling from the console housing.

Abstract: A control apparatus includes a switch that operates a device, the switch being attached to a vehicle ceiling part, wherein a display able to transmit light from a light source is provided on an operation surface of an operation element of a switch, and in the operation element, an inclined part inclined with an upward slope from a vehicle front toward a vehicle rear is provided, the slope being inclined at an angle at which light radiated from the light source is not visually recognized by an occupant when the light radiated from the light source is reflected on a rearview mirror.

Abstract: An operation element is disposed in a recess provided in a lower surface of a controller attached to a vehicle ceiling part, and the operation element comprises an inclined portion inclined at an upward gradient from a vehicle front toward a vehicle rear, a protruding portion formed by the inclined portion, and provided on a vehicle front side of a point, on the operation element, that has an equal distance from opposite ends of the operation element in a front-back direction, and an operating rotary shaft disposed on a side of the protruding portion.

Abstract: The switch structure provided in a control device of a vehicle ceiling part comprises a cover that is openable and closable between a closed position to cover a switch and an opened position to open the switch, and in the cover, a region that covers an operation surface of an operation element of the switch in at least the closed position is formed of a member that transmits light, and the cover has a top surface comprising an inclined portion inclined at an upward gradient from a vehicle front toward a vehicle rear in the closed position.
