Reversible converter of direction of movement and device for displacing volumes using said converter

摘要

A reversible converter of direction of motion, in which all geometric axes of rotating parts cross each other at one point, comprises: a housing; a shaft, rotatably mounted in the housing; a guide rigidly connected to the shaft and made in the form of a body of revolution, said guide having an annular groove the plane of symmetry of which is inclined toward the rotation axis of the shaft and passes through said intersection point; a blade operatively connected to the annular groove of the guide through an intermediate connecting member, said blade being mounted in the housing on half-axles for taking up the rotation of the shaft or rotating said shaft. The invention also pertains to a positive displacement machine which comprises oscillating working elements and utilizes said converter.
