Abstract (en)

[origin: US4739132A] This invention relates to a steering column switch with two switch units arranged in superposed planes, which switch units each have a board with injection-moulded metal conductors and plug contacts the ends of which are rectangularly bent. The ends of the plug contacts of the switch unit which, in the plugging direction, is farther away from the connector, are positioned laterally of the ends of the other switch unit with a spacing from a conceived plane through the housing, which spacing is larger than the spacing of the ends of the plug contacts of the other switch unit from this plane. Thus a compact construction of the connection area of the switch is ensured.
