`
`ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
`
`Provided is a push switch mounted on an printed circuit
`
`board. The push switch includes: an operation.portion which
`
`is pushed and operated from.a direction parallel to a surface
`
`of the mounted printed circuit board; a plurality of contacts
`
`which are electrically conducted to each other by the push
`
`operation of the operation portion; a case which is formed from
`
`an insulation body and has a lower surface facing the printed
`
`10
`
`15
`
`circuit board; a plurality of terminals which are led out from
`
`the case to outside; and a embedded portion which is physically
`
`and electrically connected to any one of the terminals and
`
`embedded and fixed inside the case. An exposed portion is
`
`formed in a part of the embedded portion so as to be exposed
`
`totheoutsidefromthelowersurfaoeofthecase. Accordingly,
`
`it is possible to improve the soldering strength without
`
`increasing an occupied area of the push switch on the printed
`
`circuit board.
