Abstract:
A pointer with an integrated light emitting diode (LED) designed with the female side of a jack connector. A motor is designed with the male side of the jack connector, replacing the shaft of the motor. The pointer is assembled with the male side of the jack connector integrated in the motor. The pointer is designed as an in-mold, integrated LED and female side of the jack connector. LED terminals are connected to the jack connector. The motor integrates the male side of the jack connector, replacing the shaft of the motor. LED supply voltage signals (VCC,GND) reach the printed circuit board (PCB) through the jack connector by implementing new contact springs in the base of the motor. Inside the motor the shaft is connected to the contact springs with brushes.
