ABSTRACT:
A sliding type switch includes a non-conductive slide slidably engaged in a non-conductive housing and includes a knob extended outward of the housing for moving the slide. A non-conductive board is secured in the housing and three pairs of conductive prongs are secured to the board. The slide includes two openings for receiving two spring elements. The spring elements may be either conductive or non-conductive. Each of the spring elements engages a conductor and moves in concert therewith. The spring elements are provided with S-shaped springs each having two curved tips to bias the conductors to engage electrically with two pairs of the three pairs of conductive prongs.
