Claim:
1. A wobble drive mechanism for coupling a rotary motion to a reciprocating motion comprising: a diagonal plate and a wobble carrier; said diagonal plate configured for coupling to a rotary motion drive in accordance with a rotary axis, said diagonal plate having a driving surface at a diagonal angle to said rotary axis, said diagonal plate for driving said wobble carrier; said wobble carrier having a first side, said wobble carrier in sliding contact with said diagonal plate along said first side, and said wobble carrier having a spherical side opposite said first side, said spherical side in contact with a spherical bearing recess; said wobble carrier operatively constrained between said diagonal plate and said spherical bearing recess; said wobble carrier having a wobble carrier bore disposed laterally to said wobble carrier; at least one reciprocating drive shoe contained within said wobble carrier bore; said reciprocating drive shoe free to move axially within said wobble carrier bore; said at least one reciprocating drive shoe coupled through a connecting rod for coupling said reciprocating motion.
