<p>The present invention provides a switch (11,51,62,72) having a small longitudinal size of movable contacts and reduced size. The switch (11,51,62,72) includes a base (21), a pair of fixing terminals (31,36,63,73) standing on an upper surface of the base (21) , an insulating wall section (22) integrated with at least one of the fixing terminals (31,36,63,73), a push button (12) arranged to be upward and downward movable in the axial direction, and a slider (41,52,70,81) movable upward and downward with the push button (12). The slider (41,52,70,81) has elastic arm sections (43,54) in both ends thereof, the elastic arm sections (43,54) being provided with movable contact portions (48,49,59,60,86) to be brought into sliding contact with the fixing terminals (31,36,63,73) or the insulating wall section (22) while pressing the fixing terminals (31,36,63,73) or the insulating wall section (22) from one side. The switch (11,51,62,72) is configured to enable the movable contact portions (48,49,59,60,86) to connect to and separate from the fixing terminals (31,36,63,73) based on operation of the push button (12)upward and downward.</p> |
