Abstract
A cam mechanism includes a cam, an output object and a counter object. The cam has a profile including an ascending region where a radius gradually increases along a rotating direction and a descending region where the radius gradually decreases along the rotating direction. The ascending region and the descending region are shifted each other by 180 degrees. The output object abuts on the cam with a predetermined pressure and linearly moves in an abutting direction in which the output object abuts on the cam and in a counter-abutting direction opposite to the abutting direction by rotating of the cam. The counter object abuts on the cam with the predetermined pressure from the counter-abutting direction at a position shifted by 180 degrees with respect to an abutting position between the output object and the cam.
