Abstract
A rotating actuator includes a rotatable control shaft, a manually operated handle connected therewith, and a device for generating a haptic perception when rotating the control shaft. The haptic signal generating device is developed in the form of a mechanical detent assembly including a detent curve and at least one detent element engaging the stop curve. An activating device is allocated to the haptic signal generating device and is actively configured on the detent curve or a detent element. By selecting the activation device an interaction is created between a detent element and the detent curve in order to generate the haptic signal formed by the detent curve. The haptic signal can be enabled or disabled by activating or deactivating the activation device as the control shaft is rotated.
