Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the number of components for waterproofing is large and the structure is complicated, and the number of assembly man-hours for waterproofing also increases, and the number of processes required to fasten the fixing ring to the outer casing also increases.
Therefore, it is disadvantageous in terms of cost reduction
[0013] In the prior art described above, there is a problem that there is room for improvement in waterproofness around the button, and there is also room for improvement in terms of structure simplification and cost reduction.

Embodiment Construction

[0046] refer to Figure 1 ~ Figure 3 , and the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0047] figure 1 with figure 2 Symbol 11 in : represents a portable device such as a portable watch, specifically, a waterproof wristwatch that can be used in water. The wristwatch 11 has a device exterior, for example, an exterior case 12 for a watch.

[0048] Such as figure 2 As shown, in the outer casing 12, a display panel such as a dial plate 13, a built-in device, such as a hands 14 for displaying time are accommodated (refer to figure 1 ), the movement 15 that controls the movement of the ), a lamp not shown, and a battery not shown as a power source, for example.

[0049] Movement 15 has at least 1 such as 2 (in figure 2 , only one) follower member such as the contact member 16 is shown. These contact members 16 are formed of leaf springs or the like, and protrude from the outer periphery of the movement 15 . By pressing the contact member 16 by the p...

Abstract

Provision of a portable device capable of improving waterproof property in a push-in operation portion with a simple structure. A wrist watch (portable device) 11 includes an outer case (device outer housing) 12, an operation member 41 and a holding ring 46. The outer case 12 includes a holding portion 35 in which an annular bearing surface 35a is formed. The operation member 41 is made of a soft material having waterproof performance. The operation member 41 includes an annular packing portion 42 to be seated on the bearing surface 35a and a push-in portion 43 integrally connected to the portion, to which push-in operation is performed from the outside of the device outer housing 12.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a portable device and a portable watch having a push operation part. Background technique [0002] Portable devices such as portable watches such as watches and pocket watches, stopwatches, mobile phones, and portable information terminals are equipped with operating members such as buttons that operate contacts in the device exterior, for example, on the device exterior. In this device, a defined function is performed by pressing a button down a defined distance. For example, in a portable watch, the dial can be illuminated, the display of the watch can be switched from analog display to digital display or vice versa, or the date or week of the digital display can be modified. [0003] In such a portable device, since the shaft portion of the button passes through the inside and outside of the device exterior, the portion where the button is provided (the push operation portion) needs to be waterproof. [0004] There...
