DEFINITION

Classification: 335/122

(under subclass 121) Subject matter wherein the significant contact actuating means comprises at least one member which is moved in a circular arc by a rotating member or a plurality of members which collectively transpose a motion of a first type to a second motion of another type; as for example, a reciprocating motion is converted to a rotary motion, etc.
