Abstract (en)

[origin: US5164561A] An electrical switch includes a switch casing having an open side; a plunger received in the switch casing and projecting through the open side; a guide defined in the switch casing for guiding the plunger to perform sliding motions in response to an external force exerted thereon; a switching mechanism accommodated in the switch casing for cooperating with the plunger to make or break an electric contact in response to a sliding displacement of the plunger; a lid closing the open side of the switch casing; a sealing arrangement for sealingly securing the lid to the switch casing; and a bell-shaped resilient bellows formed on the lid as an integral part thereof. The bellows projects outwardly from the open side and sealingly surrounds the plunger.
