ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a slide switch comprising an insulator, at least one stationary contact member fixed in an upper surface of the insulator, a contact holder slidable on the insulator, movable contact members connected by a connecting member and mounted on the contact holder through contact biasing springs to make sliding electrical contact with the stationary contact member, and a casing enclosing the contact holder together with the insulator. In the slide switch, the movable contact members and the connecting member are formed of a thermally deformable material so that their side walls extending in a direction substantially orthogonal with respect to the upper surface of the contact holder are freely deformable when subjected to heat.
