PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To impart with a simple structure a feeling of moderation during the operation of an automatic return type slide switch. SOLUTION: A circular domed movable contact 5 is placed on a fixed contact 2 on the bottom face of a box-shaped switch case 1 and an elastic drive body 6 made of an elastic metal sheet approximately in the form of a triangle, where the end of a short third side 9 confronts the middle of a long first side 7 with a predetermined gap therebetween, is held on top of the movable contact 5, by means of the inner peripheral wall part of the switch case 1 in such a manner that an elastic drive body 6 is turnable using the intersection between the first side 7 and a second side 8 as a fulcrum and a projecting part 7B on the center lower surface of the first side 7 abuts against the apex part of the domed movable contact 4, so that a front end portion 7C becomes higher than the intersection. An operating body 13 slidably held against a lid plate 14, which closes an opening in the switch case 1, is arranged so that its operating lever part 13B projects upward, and so that a projecting part 13A on its lower surface is placed on a hypotenuse of the second side 8 of the elastic drive body 6.
