Spring loaded rotary connector

摘要

A rotary connector (10) comprising first and second printed wiring boards (12. 13) that rotate relative to each other and that are electrically interconnected using spring loaded pogo-stick type contacts (22). The spring-loaded contacts are used to transfer electrical signals or power to metallized rings (15) or contacts formed on the first printed wiring board (11). The spring-loaded pogo-stick type contacts (22) are very rugged and provide for a rotary connector (10) having long life.
