Structure of mechanism |
| Function |
A connecting rod is connected with an eccentric pivot that rotates around a fixed axis belonging to one driven by a gear to create a smaller reduction ratio. The connecting rod is connected with a pivot blade sliding connection with the frame. While this mechanism is realized again symmetrically for two blades opposite the size of hedge around a fixed blade. |
