The rotary indexing mechanism includes a coupling member mounted for reciprocatory rotary motion, and including engagement means operable to engage the movable frame during a selected portion of the reciprocatory rotary motion, drive means including a linear actuator for effecting said reciprocatory rotary motion, a transmission mechanism operatively connecting the drive means to the coupling member and, fluid damper means mounted so as to oppose the reciprocatory rotary motion of the coupling member. In one form the transmission means includes two racks one connected to the drive means and the other connected to the fluid damper means. In another form the transmission means includes a crank rotatable by the drive means with a pin receivable in a slot in the coupling member. |
