Abstract
A push-button switch of the non-locking type includes a tactile feedback mechanism, the mechanism being so constructed that a cam follower supported in a cantilever fashion is held in sliding contact with a cam provided in a slider carrying movable contacts, whereby when a plunger of the slider is depressed or released, the cam and the cam follower cooperate to give the operator a tactile feedback of operation of the switch.
