Abstract
A trigger switch includes: a trigger that receives a pushing operation; a shaft member that supports the trigger on one end side thereof; and a housing in which a through hole is opened through which the other end side of the shaft member passes. The shaft member moves inside the housing due to the pushing operation on the trigger. The trigger switch includes a covering member that covers the shaft member in a circumferential direction, has its inside sealed, and is expandable and contractible in an axial direction. The covering member has one end side attached to an outer periphery of the shaft member and has the other end side attached to a periphery of the through hole of the housing.
