Abstract
A switch attachment structure for an electric appliance which is simple but is able to provide good assembling efficiency. A first outer shell ( ) which constructs a part of a main body or pillar ( ) of the electric appliance is provided in a bottom with an attachment frame ( ). The attachment frame ( ) includes a through-hole ( ) for attaching a tip-over switch ( ) thereto and a cutout ( ) formed in a part of the attachment frame ( ). The cutout ( ) has a width at least as large as the thickness of a lead wire ( ), thus providing the communication of the through-hole ( ) with the outside of the attachment frame ( ). When combining the first outer shell ( ) and a second outer shell ( ) together, the cutout ( ) is filled by the second outer shell ( ). Thus, it is possible to insert the lead wire ( ) from the cutout ( ) into the through-hole ( ) with the switch ( ), the lead wire ( ) and the electrical element ( ) being connected together beforehand, and then to insert the switch ( ) into the through-hole ( ) to thereby easily and efficiently attach the switch ( ) to the attachment frame ( ).
