Abstract

A switch having planar contacts and a rotary brush engageable with the contacts to perform a switching function has printed circuit board mounting lugs integral with planar contact circuitry. The lugs allow mounting of the switch to the edge of the printed circuit board and is of miniature size suitable for use with a watch stem of an electronic wristwatch. Tactile feel and positive detent of the switch rotor is provided with a resilient beam which detents against the irregular surface of a cam provided on the rotor. The cam has an offset finger that resiliently deflects a return spring which returns the switch rotor to an off position providing only a momentary switching function when the rotor is manually rotated and then released. The switch parts are designed for stackable assembly without a need for fasteners. The switching function, in this instance, is associated with resetting of the hour and minute time display.
