The invention relates to an electric switch for electric appliances. The electric switch include a switch housing, an actuating element, and a plug socket. The actuating element is configured to switch a contact system accommodated in the switch housing by movement between a switch-off position and a switch-on position. The plug socket is non-detachably connected to the switch housing. Electrical connections of the contact system are held in the plug socket such that ends of the electrical connections are in predetermined positions.

An operation panel includes a push key and a switch. The push key is depressed through an opening formed in a panel body. The switch is pushed by depressing of the push key. The push key includes a tapered part tapered toward the switch. The panel body includes an elastic piece inclined toward the tapered part from a circumference of the opening and elastically deformable to an opposite side to the tapered part. When the push key is depressed, the elastic piece is elastically deformed to the opposite side by the tapered part. When the depressing of the push key is released, the push key is pushed up by an elastic restoring force of the elastic piece.

Electrical mechanism, which has an axial axis in which are arranged: a rocking lever configured to adopt a first position and a second position of electrical connection or disconnection; a striker configured to engage with the rocking lever in the first position and in the second position (P.sub.2); an actuating device configured to transmit an actuation force to the striker so that the striker engages with the rocking lever and changes the position thereof; and a spring configured to disengage the striker from the rocking lever once the actuation force is released. Two contact points for transmitting the actuation force are established between the striker and the actuating device of the electrical mechanism.

A push switch includes: a case including a fixed contact; a movable member, a pushing element, and a support. The movable member includes a movable contact. The movable member is disposed at a location to face the fixed contact and is movable between an ON-position and an OFF-position. The pushing element is disposed at a location to face the movable member and is configured to receive external force to push the movable member. The support has such a property that until a travel distance of the pushing element reaches a first threshold, a load applied from the support to the pushing element increases, and when the travel distance of the pushing element reaches the first threshold, the load applied from the support 6 to the pushing element decreases.

An electric switch of the normally open type includes a body made of insulating material, an actuator that is moveable between a high rest position and a low active contact position, a first elastically deformable contact blade supported by the body, and a second elastically deformable contact blade supported by the body. A first contact section of the first contact blade extends above a second contact section of the second contact blade. The first and second contact sections are superposed and are vertically distanced from each other when the actuator is in high rest position, and are in mutual electrical contact when the actuator is in low position so as to establish an electrical switching path.
