Abstract

A push button slide switch, the slider of which is held within the housing by means of a tongue-like retaining member. The retaining member is shaped so that it can be moved upwards by means of a simple flat tool which is inserted below or above the wall of the housing carrying the retaining member. Thus, the slider can be easily removed from the switch housing even when the switch is mounted in a front panel.
