Here is a tutorial on the clock spring and the systems that can go down if the clock spring mechanism fails.
The term "Clock Spring" doesn't really describe the simple mechanism.
It is neither a clock, nor a spring. Just a semetrical overlay of ribbon wires like the petals of a flower that allows the wheel to turn while still being wired to all the buttons.
Seems poetic.
