Abstract
A method of creating a conjugated surface for use in a motion conversion device for converting linear motion into circular motion or vice versa through the use of an axially movable conjugate-driver moving laterally with respect to a conjugate-bearing, the conjugated surface being on the conjugate-bearing. The method includes the steps of creating a motion curve corresponding to the circular motion from the frame of reference of the lateral motion, iteratively rotating the conjugate surface along the motion curve, and measuring a conjugated curve comprising the points of the conjugate surface farthest from a line joining the two endpoints of the motion curve during the course of the rotations. The conjugated surface is created according to the conjugated curve.
