Abstract
Reciprocating motion/rotating motion converter has been developed in which the reciprocating motion of the converter itself is converted to the rotating motion with one rotating direction. It is easy for the rotating motion to be utilized, for instance, a rotating generator can be easily operated by it. The converter has two pendulum type rotors connected with a spring. The equations of motion are solved numerically to obtain parameters area of synchronous rotation to the reciprocating motion and the validity of the area is confirmed by the experiment. Design procedure of the converter is also discussed through the result.
