ABSTRACT:
A flexible element for use in a rotary position sensor or the like having the direction of electrical traces on one surface of the element altered without putting the traces into tension. The directional change is accomplished by partially splitting the flexible element and continuing an electrical trace from one side of the split back along the other side. The invention makes it possible to decrease the size for a given operational angle of mechanically variable resistors without sacrificing quality or reliability.
