The outer casing 20 is fixed to the holding member 80 by hooking the two hook portions 89 to the hook holes 24a of the hook portion 24 of the outer casing 20 on the side surface of one of the holding members 80. The same is true on the other side of the holding member 80. Here, referring to Fig. 5 to Fig. 8, the assembly sequence of the switch 1 will be described. First, as shown in Fig. 5, the substrate 70 is placed on the holding member 80 such that the convex portion 86 of the holding member 80 is positioned on the second concave portion 78 of the substrate 70. The substrate 70 may be fixed to the holding member 80 by any means such as rivets, bolts, or adhesion. As shown in FIG. 6, the spacer 60 is placed on the main surface 72 of the substrate 70. The two first contacts 74 of the substrate 70 are respectively disposed to be exposed from the opening portion 64 of the spacer 60 at this time. "The two second contacts 76 of the substrate 70 are respectively disposed at least partially in correspondence with the spacer 60 at this time. Pick up. At this time, the convex portion 86 of the holding member 80 is disposed in the first concave portion 62 of the spacer 60. Thereby, the spacer 60 can restrict the operation in the direction parallel to the main surface 7 2 with respect to the substrate 70. That is, the convex portion 86 of the holding member 80 functions as the restriction means -8 - M441616. Next, as shown in Fig. 7, the two elastic members 50 are disposed on the spacer 60 in a manner corresponding to the opening 64 of the spacer 60. Specifically, the edge portion 52 of the elastic member 50 is disposed on the spacer 60 such that the elastic deformation portion 54 of the elastic member 50 faces the first contact 74 with the opening 64 interposed therebetween (refer to 3)). At this time, one of the elastic members 50 (the elastic member 50 on the right side of Fig. 7) is surrounded by the four φ convex portions 86 of the holding member 80. The other elastic member 50 (the elastic member 50 on the left side of Fig. 7) is surrounded by the two convex portions 86 and the tapered portion 88 of the holding member 8''''''' Thereby, it can be restricted that the elastic member 50 moves in a direction parallel to the main surface 72 of the substrate 70 with respect to the spacer 60 and the substrate 70. That is to say, the convex portion 86 and the tapered portion 88 of the holding member 80 function as a restriction means. Next, as shown in Fig. 8, the two rod portions 40 are respectively disposed on the elastic member 50. At this time, one of the rod portions 40 (the rod portion 40 on the right side of FIG. 8) is surrounded by the four convex portions 86 of the holding member 80. The other rod portion 40 (the rod portion 40 on the left side of Fig. 8) is surrounded by the two convex portions 86 and the tapered portion 88 of the holding member 80. Thereby, it is possible to restrict the movement of the rod portion 40 in the direction parallel to the main surface 72 of the substrate 70 with respect to the spacer 60 and the substrate 70. That is, the convex portion 86 and the tapered portion 88 of the holding member 80 function as a restricting means. After the spacer 60, the elastic member 50, and the rod portion 40 are sequentially disposed on the substrate 70 in this manner, the spacer 30 is fitted to the arrangement portion 82 of the holding member 80. Then, the outer casing 20 is placed on the holding member 80, and the outer -9-M441616 casing 20 is pushed toward the holding member 80 side. The hook portion 85 of the holding member 80 is brought into the hook hole 24a of the hook portion 24 with the hook portion 85' of the holding member 80 being elastically deformed. Thereby, the outer casing 20 is fixed to the holding member 80. In a state where the outer casing 20 is fixed to the holding member 80, the elastic portion 54 is gently pressed by the pressing portion 46, and the rod portion 40 is brought into contact with the elastic member 5''. Thereby, the operation of the elastic member 50 in the direction orthogonal to the main surface 72 of the substrate 70 is restricted. In the state in which the outer casing 20 is fixed to the holding member 80, the two annular projections 38 of the spacer 30 are fitted to the opening portions 22 of the outer casing 20, respectively.
