ABSTRACT:
A rotary switch has a detent mechanism and one or more switch sections. Each switch section has a rotor disc with annular conductive tracks thereon and four sets of stator contacts, two on each side of the rotor shaft and staggered to engage alternate conductive tracks. The switch section housing has two identical parts which snap together, each section carrying two sets of contacts. The stator contacts are mounted between ribs with an interference fit of the contact edges and the rib walls. The contacts are mounted with a set of contacts joined together and then the joining web is severed.
