Abstract
A rotary shaft assembly includes an outer shaft, an outer opening being formed on a circumferential wall of the outer shaft, and a nested shaft which is rotatably supported within the outer shaft, a nested opening being formed on a circumferential wall of the nested shaft. The nested shaft and the outer shaft are configure to be rotatable with respect to each other about a common axis such that a relative rotation angle between the outer shaft and the nested shaft varies.
