Abstract

See full text

A rotating switch contact apparatus has an apparatus housing; a contact housing; a housing bearing provided in the contact apparatus housing, the housing being rotatably mounted in the bearing; and a contact bridge mounted in the housing, rotating with the latter and having, at each end, a stationary mating contact receptacle, receptacles protruding from housing openings so the receptacles engage stationary mating contacts during contact housing rotation and may produce electrical contact between stationary mating contacts via the contact bridge. At least one spring terminal is arranged between the housing and bridge, which is resiliently mounted in the housing approximately perpendicular to the apparatus rotational plane. The contact housing is approximately cylindrical and at least partially has, on its lateral surface, a gearwheel section, and has an opening through which the gearwheel section projects, so the housing is rotationally movable for contact opening or closing between stationary mating contacts and receptacles via a gearwheel engaging in the gearwheel section.
