Abstract

A slide switch capable of significantly reducing the number of parts therefor and facilitating assembling thereof. The slide switch includes a base provided thereon with fixed contacts, a slider provided thereon with a movable contact spring and arranged on the base so as to be movable in a desired direction while being guided by a combination of guide grooves and slide elements, and a restoring spring-equipped cover provided with restoring springs adapted to be pressed against four sides of the slider. The restoring spring-equipped cover is mounted on the base from a side of an upper surface of the slider, so that the slider slid in a desired direction may be returned to an original position by restoring force of the restoring springs, whereby selective contacting between the movable contact spring and the fixed contacts permits switching operation, mode changing-over operation and the like to be selectively carried out.
