A pressure switch is provided which enables an increased pressure tightness. A pressure switch comprises a diaphragm, a cap to define a storage space for pressure fluid, a plate-shaped stopper configured to limit a position of the diaphragm in the event of pressure variation to define a working position, a coupling section for coupling outer circumferences of the diaphragm, the cap and the stopper to form a diaphragm unit, a ring-shaped member formed with a substantially same diameter as the diaphragm unit, a switch element, and a body (a tubular section of a joint section and a switch holding tube) configured to accommodate the ring-shaped member and the diaphragm unit while clamping an outer circumference section of the diaphragm unit together with the ring-shaped member so that the ring-shaped member comes into pressure contact with the outer circumference section.

Pressure switch

Provided is a contact structure for a switch, in which a contact region is increased, a conduction failure can be more precluded, and the operational reliability of the switch can be improved by allowing contact points between contacts to be line contacts. The contact structure for a switch includes a pair of contacts that are opposed to each other to open or close the switch by allowing the contacts to come into contact with or to separate from each other, wherein a contact surface of a first contact is formed into a concave shape provided with a projection and a recess; a contact surface of a second contact is formed into a rounded surface; and the projection of the first contact and the rounded surface of the second contact are configured to come into contact with each other.
