A light fixture with an actuator retained switch particularly adapted for surface mounting to a variety of supporting surfaces, e.g., the interior of a recreational vehicle, includes a housing, lens and mounting structure for suspending the switch within the housing. The mounting structure consists of a pair of mutually spacedinternal walls which contain slots adapted to receive the edges of the switch. The switch is positioned between the two internal walls such that the operating member of the switch is in position to readily engage the switch actuator. Engagement of the switch operator and actuator serves to lock them together and retain both upon the housing. To operate the switch, the user manipulates the actuator, which is locked to the operating member of the switch, by sliding the actuator from side-to-side.

L'invention porte sur un appareil d'éclairage spécialement conçu pour un montage en surface sur une multitude de supports, par exemple dans l'habitacle d'une voiture de tourisme, et muni d'un interrupteur dont le levier est lié à un dispositif de commande à glissement. Cet appareil comprend un boîtier, un verre diffuseur et un dispositif de fixation pour suspendre l'interrupteur dans le boîtier. Le dispositif de fixation est constitué de deux parois internes parallèles portant chacune une fente pour recevoir l'une des deux extrémités de l'interrupteur. Ce dernier est placé entre les deux parois internes dans une position telle que son levier puisse facilement pénétrer dans le dispositif de commande à glissement. Ces deux pièces sont ainsi fixées au boîtier et rendues solidaires l'une de l'autre. Pour faire bouger l'interrupteur, il suffit de déplacer, dans le plan horizontal, le dispositif de commande à glissement, qui est lié au levier de l'interrupteur.
