Abstract

A printed circuit board mounted rotary electrical switch has a rotatable electrical contact carrier mounted for rotation within a cup-shaped housing and carrying indexing and rotation limiting devices cooperating with the housing. An electrical contact strip is carried by the rotatable carrier for selectively providing a direct electrically conductive bridge between pairs of a plurality of projecting electrical contacts attached to the circuit board and to corresponding printed wiring on the circuit board. The housing is attached to the circuit board by screws threaded into the circuit board through perforated ears projecting from respective sides of the housing. The carrier and the housing are made of an electrically non-conductive material to protect the strip and the contacts from extraneous electrical paths.
