Abstract
A force transfer assembly connects the output centerpoint of a Cardan gear mechanism to a work performing assembly. The motion of the output centerpoint moving in a first and second plane is translated by the force transfer assembly such that the work performing assembly moves in first, second and third planes. The force transfer assembly preferably includes a rotatable spherical element carried by the output lever of the Cardan gear mechanism, with a slider pin journalled in the spherical element and connected to the work performing assembly.
