Abstract: A continuous motion converter for converting rotary motion to reciprocatory motion and/or reciprocatory motion to rotary motion. A pair of wheels are positioned in a spaced co-planar relationship to each other and have an endless flexible drive member received over them. A carrier is located about the outer perimeter of the drive member. The drive member supports at one location thereon a slider which extends across the outer width of the drive member. The slider is slidably received on the carrier to extend to each side thereof for movement with the drive member and transverse movement relative to the axis extending between the wheels whereby with movement of the drive member over the wheels the carrier reciprocates between the wheels and the slider reciprocates transversely on the carrier, support means being provided to support the slider within the carrier continuously throughout movement of the carrier.
