Abstract
A push-button on a sewing machine is provided with a bracket rigidly connected to a sewing machine housing. A key member is mounted axially displaceably in a hole of the bracket with a stop for limiting its outwardly directed displacement and with a switch. The switch may be arranged on the bracket and can be actuated by the key member. The key member has a key stop for limiting its displacement directed toward the interior of the housing. An elastic hook-shaped holding mechanism extends into the displacement path of the key stop and fixes the switch supported on the bracket. The elastic hook-shaped holding mechanism is arranged on the bracket.
