Single stalk steering column switch

摘要

A multi-function single lever switch (10) with an axial type contact system design. A first radially moveable contact ring (20) is interposed on a lever base (12) between a stationary contact ring (24). The stationary contact ring (24) includes a projecting portion (28) adapted to receive a second radially moveable contact ring (30) thereon and is surrounded by a cover (34). Cover (34) has an actuatable push button (36) assembly at one end. A plurality of axially disposed stationary electrical blade contacts (16, 26) on the lever base (12) and stationary contact ring (24) interconnect with electrical contacts (22, 32) on the first and second radially moveable contact rings (20, 30) as well as an electrical contact (40) on the push button (36) assembly.
