Structure of mechanism |
| Function |
Both extremities of the footrest have a different circular trajectory, as a result the centre of the footrest has an elliptic movement. The footrest drives in rotation the crank set which acts as a flywheel, and by the other extremity it drives the arm in rotation. |
