<p>A boxlike casing (15) has an opening (15A) partly formed on a front wall and a plurality of stationary contacts (2A SIMILAR 2C, 3A SIMILAR 3B) provided on an inner bottom surface. A slider (2) is installed in the casing and slidable in a predetermined slide direction. The slider has a rod guide portion (21A) provided at a predetermined portion and spring receive portions (21B, 21C) provided at left and right ends. A rod (22) is installed in the rod guide portion and slidable in a push direction normal to the slide direction. The rod has an operating lever (22A) protruding forward from the opening of the casing and a push portion (22B, 22C) extending rearward. At least one elastic contact piece (7) is fixed to at least one of lower surfaces of the slider and the rod for electrically connecting or disconnecting the stationary contacts. Two L-shaped springs (19, 20; 23, 24) have proximal portions (19A, 20A; 23A, 24A) held by spring holders (15B, 15C; 11C, 11D; 21B, 21C). The first arms (23B, 24B) have distal ends supported by spring receive portions (16B, 16C; 15G, 15H) and mesial portions received by arm receive portions (11A, 11B; 21D, 21E). The second arms (19D, 20D; 23C, 24C) are pressed by the push portion (17B; 22B, 22C) of the rod movable in the push direction. <IMAGE></p> |
