Abstract

See full text

A drive system for driving a piece of equipment includes a pendulum mechanism. The pendulum mechanism has a bob member, a connector member, and a pivot member, wherein the bob member is connected to the pivot member by the connector member in a manner that allows the bob member to swing about the pivot member. An equipment connecting mechanism is adapted to operatively connect the drive system to a piece of equipment so that the piece of equipment can be driven by the drive system. The bob member comprises a carriage that has a platform that supports a mass transfer mechanism, the mass transfer mechanism including a translating mass and a linear actuator adapted to translate the translating mass relative to the platform. Selective translation of the translating mass causes the bob member to swing in a pendulum motion or maintain a pendulum motion.
