摘要:
With use of a variable-capacitance capacitor, a position indicator in which both the initial rise characteristic at the time of writing pressure detection and the resolution of the writing pressure are improved and that is suitable to be used for a portable terminal is realized. The variable-capacitance capacitor includes a dielectric (71) having a first surface part (71a) and a second surface part (71b) that are opposed. A conductor member (71 c) is disposed on the first surface part (71 a) of the dielectric (71), and it functions as a first electrode part. A conductor member (71d) is disposed on the second surface part (71b) of the dielectric (71). An electrically-conductive member (74) to which an elastic member (75) that functions as a terminal part is connected is disposed opposed to the conductor member (71d) and the electrically-conductive member (74) gets contact with the conductor member (71d), which forms a second electrode.
摘要:
There is provided a position pointer having a plurality of refill bodies that can be configured at low cost and ensure freedom from malfunction during exchange of signals with a sensor section of a position detection device. The position pointer includes a tubular housing having an opening portion on one end side, a plurality of refill bodies accommodated in the housing, a refill body selection mechanism section that selectively causes at least a tip of one of the plurality of refill bodies to project from the opening portion, and a magnetic material core disposed on the one end side of the housing having the opening portion, and a coil is wound around the magnetic material core. The magnetic material core has a through hole into which and through which one of the plurality of refill bodies can be inserted and that communicates with the opening portion. The refill bodies not selected by the refill body selection mechanism section are located away from the through hole of the magnetic material core, and at least the tip of the refill body selected by the refill body selection mechanism section is caused to project externally from the opening portion via the through hole.
