ABSTRACT:
A dial type switch mechanism is developed in which an installation space can be made as small as possible. In a dial type switch mechanism (10) furnished with a push type switch part provided in its center, and a dial switch part which operates a dial fitted around the push type switch part, there are provided: a substantially cylindrical dial knob (21), in the center of which a cavity is provided for the push type switch part to be installed; a ring-shaped joint ring (23), which is supported such that it can rotate freely relative to a front panel (6) and connects and rotates together with the dial knob (21); and a rotary bracket (24), which is joined to the joint ring (23), and in which a switch rotation shaft (24b) that operates the dial type switch part is connected together with a ring-shaped member (24a) via an arm (24c).
