ABSTRACT:
A scissors-type push button switch having slanted surfaces on top of first and second bearing slots that are integrated to the surface of a bottom base plate. The slanted surfaces are designed as such so that lateral cylindrical protrusions located on one end of a linking bracket can snap in the bearing slots in position with just a single push towards the base plate which reduces cycle time during the component assembly process. In particular, the first slanted surface and the spaced-apart second slanted surface, for guiding insertion, are slantingly recessed surfaces that tilt slightly towards each other and directly above the first and second bearing slots. In a second embodiment, the surfaces on top of the first and bearing slots are flat and the ends of the lateral cylindrical protrusions are chamfered to form slanted surfaces slanted away from each other.
