Abstract

An improved actuator switch for transmitting a function to a PC board that is not directly attached to the actuator switch. The actuator switch provides a large amount of alignment tolerance without loss of function. Further, the actuator switch is easy to assemble, requiring no assembly tools because the entire mechanism snaps together.
