Abstract:
A highly durable, quiet switch includes a housing, a stationary contact terminal including a fixed portion, a moving contact terminal, a moving contact unit including a body, a moving portion, and an urging member and connected to the moving contact terminal, an operating unit, a first elastic unit that comes in contact with the moving contact unit and elastically deforms when the moving portion moves away from the fixed portion, and a second elastic unit including a contact point between the moving portion and the fixed portion facing the moving portion to come in contact with the moving portion. The second elastic unit elastically deforms and electrically connects the stationary and moving contact terminals when the moving portion moves toward the fixed portion and comes in contact with the contact point.

Claim (Index 1):
A switch, comprising:\n a housing including an internal compartment; a stationary contact terminal extending from outside the housing to the compartment and fixed to the housing, and including a fixed portion housed in the compartment; a moving contact terminal extending from outside the housing to the compartment, and being parallel to the stationary contact terminal, the moving contact terminal being fixed to the housing in a manner electrically independent of the stationary contact terminal; a moving contact unit housed in the compartment, and including a body connected to the moving contact terminal and extending from the moving contact terminal toward the stationary contact terminal, a moving portion included in the body and facing the fixed portion and being movable toward and away from the fixed portion, and an urging member included in the body and being configured to urge the moving portion in an urging direction switchable between a closing direction for moving the moving portion toward the fixed portion and a separating direction for moving the moving portion away from the fixed portion; an operating unit at least partly exposed outside the housing, and at least partly housed in the compartment to come in contact with and reciprocate with respect to the moving contact unit, the operating unit being configured to switch the urging direction in accordance with reciprocation of the operating unit to move the moving portion toward or away from the fixed portion; a first elastic unit fixed to the housing, and configured to come in contact with the moving contact unit and elastically deform in the separating direction when the moving portion moves away from the fixed portion under an urging force of the urging member; and a second elastic unit including a contact point located between the moving portion and the fixed portion facing the moving portion in the closing direction and being configured to come in contact with the moving portion, the second elastic unit being fixed to the stationary contact terminal or the moving contact terminal and being configured to elastically deform in the closing direction and electrically connect the stationary contact terminal and the moving contact terminal when the moving portion moves toward the fixed portion under the urging force of the urging member and comes in contact with the contact point.
