Patent ID: 7300323

Claim:
A device for producing oscillatory motion from linear motion, said device comprising: a first spring actuator; a second spring actuator; a bushing mechanically having a first path through which said first spring actuator is movably positioned and having a second path through which said second spring actuator is movably positioned; a hinge including a divider in which a second end of a first flat and a second end of a second flat are attached on opposite sides of said divider; a first flat elongated strip with a first end attached to said first spring actuator and a second end attached on one side of said divider wherein said first flat elongated strip transmits linear motion by flexible movement of said first flat elongated strip from said first spring actuator from the first end in a direction impacting to an axis of said hinge such that said hinge rotates in an oscillatory direction thereby rotating a spindle in an oscillatory direction; and a second flat elongated strip with a first end attached to second spring actuator and a second end attached on another side of said divider wherein said second flat elongated strip transmits the linear motion from said second spring actuator by flexible movement of said second flat elongated strip in a direction impacting to an axis of the said hinge such that said hinge rotates in another oscillatory direction opposite to the oscillatory direction produced by said first flat elongated strip thereby rotating said spindle in the opposite oscillatory direction.
