Title:
ROTATION/OSCILLATION CONVERTING MECHANISM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/088172
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A rotation/oscillation converting mechanism capable of converting a rotational motion efficiently into a large-angle oscillatory motion (reciprocating rotational motion). The rotation/oscillation converting mechanism (1) comprises a rotary shaft (2), an oscillatory shaft (3), and an oscillating member (4). The rotary shaft (2) has a vertical part (2A) linking with a motor, and a part (2C) inclining against the vertical part (2A). The oscillating member (4) is fixed to the oscillatory shaft (3). The inclining part (2C) is clamped between the clamping faces (4D, 4E) of the oscillating member (4) and moves while touching the clamping face (4D) or (4E) as the rotary shaft (2) rotates to push the clamping face (4D) or (4E) thus oscillating the oscillating member (4) to the left and right. Consequently, the oscillatory shaft (3) performs reciprocating rotational motion.
