ABSTRACT:
A drive system for a machine including a transmission for converting rotary motion into linear reciprocating motion for driving a rack and a pinion is disclosed for use in connection with moving the pinion in oscillating rotary fashion to be the input for a differential. The differential is selectably controlled to either rotate or remain fixed and permit at least one of its outputs to rotate. The result of the drive system is to either swing a member connected to the differential output which member holds a stack of disc-like objects from vertical to horizontal or alternatively to hold a plurality of such stakes in vertical position and rotate them.
