ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for performing a plurality of switching operations in response to input rotary motion. An input shaft rotatably positioned in a housing has a plurality of cams axially positioned therealong, and a corresponding plurality of cam-operated electrical switches are positioned along the shaft, each switch being fixed to a corresponding carrier element movably connected to the housing. A motion transmitting means in the form of a shaft having a worm fixed thereon operatively engages a carrier element, in particular a series of teeth on the element, for moving the element to move the switch carried thereby in a manner adjusting the rotational orientation of the switch relative to the corresponding cam. An identical arrangement can be provided for each switch to allow independent adjustment, or the switch carriers can be connected together for simultaneous adjustment.
