Abstract
A linear-to-rotary converter assembly includes a housing having a first portion, a second portion, and a bore in which a plunger is slidably disposed. The plunger includes a plunger body having threads and a plunger boss extending from the housing. At least one of a one-way bearing or a disk is disposed within the housing bore. A rod is disposed within the housing bore and has a first portion having threads engaging the plunger threads and a second portion extending through the at least one of the one-way bearing or the disk. At least one magnet is disposed within the housing adjacent to the one-way bearing or the disk. Linear movement of the plunger between a firing position and a recoil position rotates the rod and the one-way bearing or the disk in a first direction as the magnet acts on the at least one of the one-way bearing or the disk.
