より上方へ押し上げようとする力が働いている。However, in the automatic return type slide switch having the above-mentioned conventional structure, the coil spring 6 and the elastic movable contact piece 4 for return are provided in the box-shaped case 1 in the assembling work of the switch. The lid plate 7 is attached and assembled in a state in which the held sliding body 3 is accommodated, but since the coil spring 6 must have a constant repulsive force in the completed state of the switch, its length is fixed from the free length. It is necessary to mount the sliding body 3 while shrinking it up to the dimension of 1. and the elastic force of the elastic movable contact piece 4 held under the sliding body 3 exerts a force to push it up.
【００１３】従って、これらの力によって飛び出そうと

そのためには操作レバー５を摺動体３の端部、すなわち
ケース１の端部へ寄せる必要があり、スイッチの使用時
に不利になるという課題もあった。Generally, in this type of switch, the coil spring 6 for automatic return has a smaller number of windings, which reduces the stress on the spring material and prolongs its life.
When the number of turns of the coil spring 6 is increased, the contact height at the time of compression increases. That is, it is necessary to lengthen the portion of the sliding body 3 that houses the coil spring 6 on the side of the operation lever 5,
For that purpose, it is necessary to move the operation lever 5 to the end portion of the sliding body 3, that is, the end portion of the case 1, which is disadvantageous when the switch is used.

利な効果が得られる。As described above, according to the present invention, in the automatic return type slide switch, since only the coil spring for automatic return can be inserted into the case later, the assembly is easy and the automatic assembly is possible. An advantageous effect that the operating lever can be placed in the center of the switch, which is advantageous during use, and even if the number of turns of the coil spring is increased, the feeling of shining does not occur at the time of operation, so the operating feeling is good. Is obtained.
