A system includes a rotating drive and a linear drive. An input driven gear may be coupled to the rotating drive while a sun gear is coupled to the shaft of the input driven gear. A first counterweight may support an idler gear and an output gear. The first counterweight is coupled to the driven gear and which rotates with the driven gear. The idler gear is coupled to the sun gear and an output gear. The idler gear may rotate the output gear when the idler gear is translated around the sun gear. A second counterweight is coupled to the output gear and which rotates with the output gear when the output gear is rotated by the idler gear. An end portion of the second counterweight coupled to the linear drive moves in substantially straight line as the second counterweight rotates while also being translated around the sun gear.
A system for transforming rotating motion into linear motion may include an output gear and an output link coupled to the output gear. A shared link may be coupled to the output link and coupled to a rod. An arm may be coupled to the shared link and to a rotating drive. An idle gear may be coupled to the output gear and to a stationary gear. Once rotation has started with the rotating drive, the output gear and idle gear may rotate around the stationary gear while the output link pivots and translates through space with the output gear. The shared link may drive the rod in a linear direction while receiving stabilizing supporting forces from the output link. The intermediate link may be coupled to the output link with a pin. The pin may also couple the intermediate link to the arm.
