Abstract

See full text

The present invention concerns a mechanism (1), comprising one support (2) including a base (3) and two mobile cog wheels (12; 22) in rotation around their respective axis (A1; A2). The axis (A1; A2) are parallel within a horizontal or vertical reference plane (P0). The cog wheels (12; 22) engage one with the other using a unitary transmission ratio and are mobile in rotation (R1; R2) in opposing directions. The mechanism (1) is characterized in that it comprises two eccentric elements (14; 24) integral with the cog wheels (12; 22) in rotation (R1; R2) and generating moments (M1; M2) of gravity force (P1; P2) around their respective axis (A1; A2); in that the moments (M1; M2) have a same value and a same direction, both being variable depending on their angular position around the axis (A1; A2); and in that for each angular position of the cog wheels (12; 22) and of the eccentric elements (14; 24) around the axis (A1; A2), the mechanism (1) presents an equilibrium configuration at rest. The invention also relates to a rotary machine comprising at least one such mechanism (1). The invention also relates to an implementation method of such a mechanism (1).
