ABSTRACT:
A switching device having an operation button member to be depressed includes at least one contact member to be moved by the operation button member when the operation button member is depressed. The contact member is electrically conductive and a conductive member for contacting the contact member when the operation button member is depressed by a predetermined amount is provided. An elastic member is arranged opposite to the at least one contact member with respect to the conductive member, so as to be elastically deformed when the operation button member is depressed, after the contact member has contacted the conductive member.
