<p>A horn switch mechanism of a steering wheel comprises a stationary contact plate (12) having a locking hole, a movable contact plate (13) having a base portion (13a) fixed to the stationary contact plate and contact portions (13b) extending upward from the base portion, a depressing plate (14) disposed above the movable contact plate, and a horn pad (11) disposed above the depressing plate. The depressing plate (14) is connected to a lead wire (8) electrically connected to the horn control circuit. An electrical insulation spacer (15) made of synthetic resin having spring elasticity is disposed between the stationary contact plate (12) and the movable contact plate (13). The electircal insulation spacer (15) comprises a basic member (51), a slit (53) provided on the basic member, and two locking legs (54) projecting respectively from both sides of the basic member and each locking leg having a convex member. Each locking leg (54) is locked to a peripheral edge of the locking holes (23,25) of the stationary contact plate (12). Each convex member locking the base portion of the movable contact plate.</p> |
