ABSTRACT:
A correction mechanism for supplying an altimeter indicator with a rotational torque to compensate for the non-linear relationship between pressure altitude and barometric pressure. The correction mechanism has a first gear for receiving an input force and a second gear connected to the first gear. The second gear is eccentrically located on a shaft which connects a third gear with the altitude indicator. Because of the eccentricity of the second gear the line of action between the second gear and the first gear causes the shaft to rotate the third gear through a varying arcuate length for each tooth engagement.
