ABSTRACT:
A switch of an extremely small thickness is made of a reduced number of parts and can be easily assembled. The switch comprises a pair of complementary case members each of which has a plurality of fixed contacts having integrally formed terminals and a common fixed contact having an integrally formed terminal; and an operation member having a lever portion, and a disc portion disposed between the case members. The operation member is provided on its outer faces with identically shaped movable contact members having contacts on the outer surfaces thereof. The upper ends of the case members define a slot form which the lever portion of the operation member is upwardly projected, and the movement of the lever portion is restricted by the slot. The operation member is securely supported in the case members by horizontal fastener members extended from both faces of the former to the outer surfaces of the latter.
