Abstract
A snap-action switch for use with electric circuits is disclosed, having a roof-shaped elastic sheetmetal member intended to cooperate with several contacts of a printed circuit. By depressing the roof along a folding edge, the sheetmetal member is caused to snap along a line extending transversely in relation to the folding edge, thus first opening one contact and thereafter closing another contact.
