ABSTRACT:
A two-piece switch is mounted on two members which slidably move in a fixed relation to each other. One portion of the switch, mounted to the stationary member, has a contact recessed within for connecting to a power source. The first portion has flexible insulators over the contact. The second portion, mounted to the slidable member, has a retractable contact and an independently retractable insulator. When the switch portions are brought together as the members are moved, the flexible insulators are deformed to expose a portion of the contact by the retractable insulator. The contacts are then electrically connected.
