ABSTRACT:
A switch mechanism includes a switch body including a sensing button placed to protrude from a surface, a switch plate placed to face the sensing button and connected to the switch body, and a coil spring for biasing the switch body. The switch mechanism is formed such that when a protruding portion presses the switch plate, the switch plate presses the sensing button. The switch body is formed to be turnable in accordance with a direction along which the switch plate presses the sensing button. The coil spring is formed to bias the switch body in a direction opposite to the direction along which the sensing button is pressed, out of turning directions of the switch body.
