ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a rectilinear transport means particularly adapted for transporting a rectangular array of individual photographic film elements one at a time into register with the axis of a projector lens or the like or for the purpose of moving or controlling the movement of other objects in a generally rectilinear manner with respect to a generally rectangular array of elements or portions; the disclosure including a simple mechanical rotary actuator and indexing means wherein the rotary actuator continuously rotates in one direction and drives the indexing means back and forth in a generally serpentine path by engaging successively indexing portions spaced in rows generally parallel to each other and whereby the rotary phase direction of the rotary indexing means when it reaches opposite ends of the rows in the rectilinear path causes a reversal of direction in the movement of the indexing means so as to progressively move in one direction and then the other and wherein the disclosure also relates to means which responds to operation of the rotary actuator for moving the indexing means laterally relative to the rows so as to move from one row to the next at the ends thereof allowing the indexing means to move back and forth relative to the rotary actuator while the rotary actuator rotates only in one direction. The disclosure relating to a variety of species of mechanism for accomplishing the foregoing functions.
