1. A simultaneous actuating mechanism for parallel axis rotors, comprising:
a housing, wherein the housing comprises:
a substantially hollow, cylindrical shell having a substantially closed base at one end of said housing, an outer wall extending from the base, and an opposite open end; andan elongate, hollow central hub extending axially from a center of the base, the outer wall and the central hub having a space between them defining an annular recess inside the housing, the plurality of rotors being mounted inside the annular recess; a plurality of rotors mounted inside the housing at predefined spaced positions, each rotor having an axis of rotation and a crank pin disposed at an offset from the axis of rotation, the axes of rotation of the rotors being parallel to each other, wherein the plurality of rotors further comprise:
at least one rotor having a crank head, the crank pin of the at least one rotor extending axially from one side of the crank head; andan elongate threaded engagement post extending from the opposite side of the crank head, the engagement post defining the axis of rotation for the at least one rotor, the closed base of the housing having at least one hole to permit the engagement post to pass through when assembled; and a driving assembly coupled to the crank pins to simultaneously drive the rotors. |
