Abstract
A self-retaining actuator is provided for actuating a switch within a housing. A lever includes fingers which extend through a hole in the housing. Lips on the fingers mount the lever to the housing. A resilient seal is positioned about the fingers and engages the lever and housing about the hole. A resilient actuator extends from the seal between the fingers to actuate the switch when the lever is depressed.
