摘要： An encoder device encodes angular position in the form of electrical signals in dependence on the position of a rotatable member in relation to a series of discrete fixed contacts disposed about the axis of rotation of a rotatable member. A series of discrete fixed contacts 2a,2b, carried by a panel 1 form a first group of contacts of a flexible switch structure which also has a second group of contacts 9 carried by a flexible sheet 7 and arranged such that each contact of said second group is located opposite but spaced from one of the series forming said first group of contacts. An intermediate sheet 8 is sandwiched between the panel 1 and flexible sheet 7 and is apertured at 10 in the region of the contact sets 2a,2b and 9. The rotatable member carries a switch actuating means 14 which operates to close any of the oppositely disposed first and second contact sets, in dependence upon its angular position, said switching actuating means being such that either one contact set is closed or two adjacent contact sets are closed for any angular position of said rotatable member. The output is derived from terminal areas 6 on the panel 1.
