Pressure switch

A pressure switch comprising:

• a diaphragm with a thin plate shape configured to deflect in an out-of-plane direction depending on pressure variation on a first surface of front and back surfaces;
• a cap to define a storage space for pressure fluid on a side of the first surface of the diaphragm;
• a plate-shaped stopper arranged facing a second surface of the diaphragm and configured to limit a position of the diaphragm in an event of the pressure variation to define a working position,
• a coupling section for coupling an outer circumference of each of the diaphragm, the cap and the stopper with each other to form a diaphragm unit,
• a ring-shaped member arranged on a side of the diaphragm unit facing the stopper and formed with a substantially same diameter as the diaphragm unit,
• a switch element configured to be switched on and off upon deflection of the diaphragm, and
• a body configured to accommodate the ring-shaped member and the diaphragm unit while clamping an outer circumference section of the diaphragm unit together with the ring-shaped member so that the ring-shaped member comes into pressure contact with the outer circumference section, wherein the outer circumference section includes at least the coupling section;
• wherein the body comprises:
• a first body which is a bottomed tube with an introduction opening for the pressure fluid in a bottom wall and configured to accommodate the ring-shaped member and the diaphragm unit;
• and
• a second body having a tubular shape, the second body being configured to fit to an opening side of the first body so as to clamp the ring-shaped member and the outer circumference section of the diaphragm unit to the bottom wall of the first body,
• wherein a crimped section is provided in one of the first and the second body so as to press an opening edge of the second body in an axial direction of the second body against the outer circumference section of the ring-shaped member, wherein the crimped section is crimped to another of the first and the second body, and wherein the crimped section is located on an imaginary line extending through the coupling section in parallel to the axial direction, and the imaginary line extends through the ring-shaped member.
