Provided are: a limit switch having an easy assembly operation of a head section and high production characteristics; and a method for producing same. Thus, in the limit switch, a rotating shaft (61) is, with a cylindrical bearing section (60) therebetween, inserted rotatably in an attachment hole (55) provided to the inner surface of a box (53) that forms a portion of a housing (10), cam units (62, 63, 64) are provided to the tip end of the rotating shaft (61), while an operation lever (69) is provided to the other end thereof, the rotational action of the operating lever (69) is converted to a vertical action by means of the cam units (62, 63, 64) provided within the box (53), thus opening and closing the contact of a switch main body (20) housed and affixed within the housing (10). The outer diameter of the cam units (62, 63, 64) is smaller than the inner diameter of the attachment hole (55). |
