Abstract

A switch having a plurality of leaf spring type contacts held in a stacked, but spaced-apart manner, with each spring having one end thereof secured in a common plastic base. The base has slots formed therein to receive the leaf springs and also has holes therein, at right angles to the plane of the slots, to receive lead-in wires. To assemble the switch, the lead-in wires are simply cut off at their ends and inserted into their respective holes. The leaf springs are then inserted in their respective slots. Each leaf spring has a slotted appendage thereon which slips over a particular and unique lead-in wire within the housing, cuts away the insulation thereon, and makes contact with the metal conductor therein. The assembled switch requires no discrete terminals secured to the ends of the lead-in wires nor any screws, bolts or other fastening means to hold the leaf springs in the common base. The plastic housing holds the leaf springs therein by force-fit means.
