Abstract:
An input device has a first electrode, a second electrode, and a third electrode. The second electrode opposes to the first electrode while being spaced apart therefrom. The third electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode and rotatably or slidably provided relative to the second electrode. By the third electrode being brought into contact with or spaced apart from the second electrode, an electrical state between the first electrode and the second electrode changes. Based on this electrical change, a rotary manipulation or a slide manipulation is detected.

Claim (Index 13):
An input device comprising:\n a first electrode; a second electrode which is fixed and opposes the first electrode; a third electrode which is movable above the second electrode and is electrically connected to the second electrode; a mechanism which alternately switches between a first state and a second state which is more stable than the first state in conjunction with a movement of the third electrode; and a manipulator which is mechanically connected to the third electrode for moving the third electrode via an external force applied to the manipulator, wherein in the first state, the third electrode is electrically connected to the second electrode, in the second state, the third electrode is electrically disconnected from the second electrode, and when the manipulator is in a position such that the third electrode is electrically connected to the second electrode, the mechanism switches to the second state from the first state when the external force is removed from the manipulator so as to disconnect the third electrode from the second electrode.
