ABSTRACT:
A multi-directional input device, in which a spacer member is interposed between a moving contact plate and a cover which is an upper member, forming a clearance between the cover and the moving contact is provided. The moving contact plate is held apart from the stationary contact and accordingly the tilting switch is held OFF during normal operation. Therefore, if the operating lever is operated slightly obliquely, the moving contact plate will not come into contact with the stationary contact because of presence of the spacer member, thereby holding the tilting switch OFF.
