ABSTRACT:
An appliance switch has a one-piece housing defining separate cavities for the rocker/actuator and for the switch contact elements. An inner wall of the housing is integrally formed for this purpose, and defines a boss for slidably receiving a plunger that engages the rocker/actuator. The contact elements are identically shaped, each having an L-shape configuration with a resilient leg engageable with the plunger, and with a plunger hole that receives the plunger in the fixed contact element. A cover closes the cavity for the fixed and movable contact elements and also serves to hold them in place.
