Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A mechanism for generating oscillatory motion omnidirectionally transforms rotating motion in which the rotating member is continuously rotated unidirectionally into any number of simultaneous arcuate motions intersecting at predetermined angles. This mechanism includes a disk-shaped body rotatably mounted and swept in a circle so that it completes two periods of rotation over the course of one period of sweep. The altitude of the disk-shaped body always intersects a point on an imaginary line, regardless of the angle of inclination of the disk-shaped body. This imaginary line is perpendicular to the circularly swept path of the disk-shaped body at the center of the circularly swept path. …
