Abstract

A switch includes: a case including a bottom portion and a side wall; a fixed terminal provided on the bottom portion of the case; a supporting member provided in the case; a movable contact strip supported by the supporting member so as to be pivotable in a vertical direction above the fixed terminal; a resilient member provided between the side wall of the case and the movable contact strip, and configured to urge one end portion of the movable contact strip obliquely upward; and a pressing member provided above the resilient member. The movable contact strip pivots and an opened-closed state between the movable contact strip and the fixed terminal is switched by pressing a center portion of the resilient member downward by the pressing member.
