Estimating the term…
In order to provide a cord switch which can reliably carry ON/OFF operations, can cancel an erroneous operation by preventing contact between electrodes caused by bending of the cord switch, and have a positive sensitivity for pressurization in all directions and high reliability, at least two wire electrodes are spirally arranged along the inner surface of an insulator which is hollowed in cross section and comprises a restorative rubber or plastic material in the longitudinal direction. The wire electrodes are not electrically contacting each other, and the wire electrodes are fixed to the hollowed insulator such that the wire electrodes are projected from the insulator.
A cord switch characterized in that at least two wire electrodes are spirally arranged along an inner surface of an insulator hollowed in cross section, which comprises a restorative rubber or plastic material, in a longitudinal direction wherein said wire electrodes are not electrically contacting each other;
