ABSTRACT:
A cam mechanism includes a continuous rotary shaft connected to a drive source, a cam fixed on the rotary shaft to convert each continuous rotation motion of the rotary shaft to a compound horizontal and vertical motion, and an output member coupled with the cam. The cam comprises a single piece, disc-shaped compound cam having in its upper surface an endless groove formed of continuously-arranged arcuate and non-arcuate groove portions and an endless guide the depth of which from the upper surface of the compound cam varies continuously. The output member is supported displaceably in the horizontal and vertical directions relative to the compound cam and includes at least one roller engaged with the groove and the guide of the compound cam.
