Abstract
A dual inline package switch assembly containing one or more separate electrical switches is disclosed which comprises an insulating housing consisting of a base and a cover to provide an interior space. The cover has at least one slit extending into the interior space in alignment with the switch. At least one actuating member is movably provided within the interior space and is formed integrally with an operating stub positioned in the slit for selectively braking and making an electrical connection between a pair of contacts fixed on the base in aligned and spaced relation. The slit has a center neck whose width is slightly smaller than the diameter of the operating stub for detenting movement of the actuating member. The actuating member side walls is positioned on housing base rails to maintain constant pressure between the actuating member conductive bridging strip and fixed pair of contacts.
