Abstract: The driving mechanism has a drive shaft which rotates a driving block. A cam is mounted for rotation to the driving block and is received in a slot of a follower. As the cam rotates, it rolls backwards and forwards in the slot and causes the follower to rotate. A connecting rod is affixed to the follower and is rotated by it. The connecting rod rotates about an axis parallel to, but offset from, the axis about which the drive shaft rotates. The rate of rotation of the drive shaft is unvarying whereas the connecting rod rotates at a varying rate. A crank is affixed to the connecting rod and imparts reciprocating motion to the tray. A link can be substituted for the cam.
