Switch module for vehicle and vehicle including the switch module

A switch module for controlling operations of an engine of a vehicle, the switch module comprising:

• a switch carrier disposed within a housing of the switch module, the switch carrier adapted to rotate within the housing;
• a plurality of microswitches disposed within the housing, the plurality of microswitches comprising first microswitches and a second microswitch;
• an engine stop knob disposed at a first end of the housing and operatively coupled to the switch carrier to rotate the switch carrier within the housing, wherein the engine stop knob is configured to be rotated between a neutral position and an active engine stop position, in which
• when the engine stop knob is rotated from the active engine stop position to the neutral position, the engine stop knob rotates the switch carrier to disengage from the first microswitches to facilitate closing an electric current circuit for allowing a transmission of current from a power source to the engine of the vehicle, and
• when the engine stop knob is rotated from the neutral position to the active engine stop position, the engine stop knob rotates the switch carrier to engage with the first microswitches to facilitate opening the electric current circuit for preventing the transmission of current from the power source to the engine of the vehicle;
• and
• an engine start knob disposed at the first end of the housing and operatively coupled with the second microswitch, wherein the engine start knob is actuatable to engage with the second microswitch in the neutral position of the engine stop knob to start power generation process of the engine.
