What Is a Rotating Electrical Connector?
A rotating electrical connector is a device used for transmitting electrical signals or power, featuring a connector that allows connections through rotating parts.
The structure of a rotating electrical connector comprises rotating and stationary parts. The rotating section houses contacts or wiring, while the stationary part contains connectors to which these contacts or wiring connect. Both parts are designed appropriately to minimize friction and contact resistance.
Rotating electrical connectors are suitable for applications requiring rotating components or mechanisms, as they can transmit signals or power while rotating. They find widespread use in places such as surveillance cameras and industrial robots, where continuous rotational motion is necessary.
