Abstract
A rotary body (20) rotating around a shaft center (O1) is provided at a main case body (13). A cam (20h) is provided at the outer periphery of the potion (20g) of the rotary body (20). A supporting shaft (30) is provided at the main case body (13) and a cam driving force transmission rod (31) is rotatably supported by the supporting shaft (30). When the cam abutment portion (31a) of the cam driving force transmission rod (31) abuts against the cam (20h), the pressing portion (31b) of the cam driving force transmission rod (31) pushes an interlock member (36) to turn on a switch. A virtual circle (K) is a moving locus of the outermost portion of a cable operation member which swings around a guide tube (18), and the cam (20h) is disposed within the virtual circle (K).
