Abstract
A switching mechanism energizes a motor in response to selective actuation of switches in order to rotate an output shaft of the motor by an angle dependent upon the particular switch which is actuated. A base body connected to an output shaft of the motor carries slide terminals that slide on conductor paths of a stationary circuit board when the motor is energized. The conductor paths are connected to respective ones of the switches so that the motor is energized in response to the contact of a slide terminal with the conductor path associated with an actuated switch, and is de-energized when that slide terminal reaches an end edge portion of that conductor path. The end edge portions of the conductor paths are arranged substantially on the same circumference relative to the axis of rotation of the output shaft.
