Push Switch of alternate type has been developed as Room Lamp Switch for Automobiles.

As a room lamp switch for automobiles, Hosiden has developed a low-profile push switch of an alternate type, which supports various ways of mounting and connection.
It is a non-lock switch of an alternate type (it repeatedly opens and closes with each push) and in the middle of it, we have set up a guide hole for LED. Thanks to the unique gear cam structure we have adopted, we have succeeded in making the profile 50% lower, while maintaining the switch strokes of our conventional products.
In addition, it can support various ways of installment, according to our users' needs (DIP Mounting /SMD Mounting /Metal Frame Connection).

Typical Features
  • Non-lock push switch of an alternate type
  • Low-profiling has been achieved by the adoption of our unique gear cam structure. (50% lower than our conventional products)
  • Price reduction has been achieved by decreasing the number of parts and by the simplification of assembly.
  • Can support various ways of mounting and connection.
    (DIP/SMD Mounting and Metal Frame Connection)
  • Has a guide hole for LED (Φ3.0ｍｍ)
  • Can support both the existence and non-existence of stroke feelings
  • Designed for high (lamp) load and longer operating life
Typical Applications
  • Room Lamp for Automobiles(Selector Switch for Lighting and Extinction)
