Abstract

A push lock switch apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a plunger that is inserted in a housing and slides and includes a moving passage in the inside thereof. A lock pin is hinged at a bottom portion of the housing and interferes with the moving passage to regulate the slide movement of the plunger. A return spring is disposed in the housing and is able to provide an elastic force to the plunger and allows the lock pin to rotate on the moving passage by pressurizing the lock pin. Additionally, a movable contactor is engaged with the plunger and slides together with the plunger and contacts a fixed terminal disposed at an outer side of the housing when the plunger slides.
