<p>The invention relates to a rotation connector, or slip ring, adapted to the transmission of electrical signals from a first device to a second device, which second device is rotatable with respect to the first. The connector according to the invention comprises a substantially dielectric support member having a longitudinal direction and provided with a first end and a second end, the surface of the support member being provided with an electrically conductive track extending longitudinally as far as the region of the second end. A self-supporting contact ring with a substantially circular electrically conductive peripheral edge is pushed over said support member and fixed. As a result the peripheral edge of the contact ring is in connection with the track via an electrically conductive path. In a specific embodiment, this connector is combined with a high speed data link. <IMAGE></p> |
