1. An input device, comprising:
- a display unit displaying an object of a folder with a hierarchical structure;
an input unit receiving pressing inputs with respect to the display unit;
a load detection unit defecting a pressing load with respect to the input unit, anda control unit controlling that a first folder is opened when the load detection unit detects a pressing toad, which changes from a state of not satisfying a first load standard to a state of satisfying the first load standard, with respect to the input unit corresponding to a location of the object of the first folder, andwherein after the first folder is opened, the control unit opens a second folder when the load detection unit detects a pressing load which changes from a state of not satisfying a second load standard higher than the first load standard to a continuous state of satisfying the second load standard, with respect to the input unit, andwherein the second folder is immediately below the first folder in the hierarchical structure.

Abstract
An input device is disclosed. An input device comprises a display unit, an input unit, a load detection unit and a control unit. The display unit displays an object of a folder with a hierarchical structure. The input unit receives pressing inputs with respect to the display unit. The load detection unit detects a pressing load with respect to the input unit. The control unit opens and closes folders based on a change in the pressing load.

6. An input device, comprising:
-
a display unit displaying an object of a folder with a hierarchical structure; an input unit receiving pressing inputs with respect to the display unit; a load detection unit detecting a pressing load with respect to the input unit, and a control unit controlling that, when a first folder and a second folder are open and displayed on the display unit, wherein the second folder is immediately below the first folder in the hierarchical structure; the second folder is closed when he load detection unit detects a pressing load, which changes from a state of not satisfying a first load standard to a state of satisfying the first load standard, with respect to the input unit; and the first folder is closed when the load detection unit detects a pressing load, which changes from a state of not satisfying a second load standard higher than the first load standard to a continuous state of satisfying the second load standard, with respect to the input unit. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)

10. An input device, comprising:
-
a display unit displaying an object of a folder with hierarchical structure; an input unit receiving pressing inputs with respect to the display unit; a load detection unit detecting to pressing load with respect to the input unit, and a control unit controlling that, when a first folder displayed on the display unit and a second folder included in a hierarchy that is immediately below the first folder are open; the second folder is closed if the load detection unit detects a pressing load, which changes from a state of not satisfying a first load standard to a state of satisfying the first load standard, with respect to the input unit; and the first folder is closed if the load detection unit detects a pressing bad, which changes from a state of not satisfying a second load standard higher than the first load standard to a continuous state of satisfying the second load standard, with respect to the input unit; wherein the pressing input is a continuous pressing input that results in the pressing load which changes from the state of not satisfying the first load standard to the state of satisfying the first load standard and that results in the pressing load which changes from the state of not satisfying the second load standard higher than the first load standard to the state of satisfying the second load standard.
