Electronic rotary switch
10720295 · 2020-07-21 · ·

An electronic switch includes a substrate and a rotator assembly. The rotator assembly is configured to prevent rotation between a first rotational configuration and a second rotational configuration in a first translational position of the rotator assembly, while the rotator assembly is configured to rotate between the first rotational configuration and the second rotational configuration in a second translational position of the rotator assembly. The second translational position of the rotator assembly is translationally offset from the first translational position of the rotator assembly. An electrical contact of the rotator assembly is configured to electrically connect an electronic input path of the substrate to an electronic output path of the substrate in the first rotational configuration and first translational position of the rotator assembly, but not to electrically connect the electronic input path to the electronic output path in the second rotational configuration of the rotator assembly or in the second translational position of the rotator assembly.
