ABSTRACT:
First and second sets of fixed contacts are axially spaced from each other. A rotor disc is axially movable between the contact sets so that electrically conductive patterns formed on opposite sides of the rotor disc selectively engage with the first and second contacts sets respectively. A detent mechanism yieldably holds the rotor disc in engagement with the selected first or second contact set and yieldably holds the rotor disc in one of a plurality of rotational positions in which the pattern interconnects the contacts in the desired manner.
