Abstract

A motion apparatus for decorative purposes has a rotary motion having at least two rotors movement-coupled to one another and each having an axis of rotation. The rotors each have a rotary base element coupled to one another and rotating synchronously at identical angular speed about their axis of rotation. Each rotor has a securing arm extending at a right angle to the axis of rotation and further has a radially outer front end. The securing arms are moveable in a longitudinal direction of the securing arm perpendicular to the axis of rotation, wherein movement of the securing arms in the longitudinal direction is coupled to the rotation of the rotary base elements such that for a complete rotation of the securing arms the front ends of the securing arms describe a spiral path. Neighboring securing arms are displaced by 180° to one another so as to have a collinear position in which the front ends point toward one another and in which the securing arms have been moved in the same direction into a longitudinal end position. A body is secured to the front end of one of the securing arms and transferred in the collinear position to the front end of the other securing arm. A drive for driving the rotary motion is provided.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bewegungsapparatur zu Dekorationszwecken.The invention relates to a movement apparatus for decorative purposes.

Sinn und Zweck der erfindungsgemäßen Bewegungsapparatur ist es, ein Bewegungsgebilde zu schaffen, welches zu Dekorationszwecken oder für andere Zwecke in einem Raum oder aber auch im Freien aufgestellt werden kann. Es hat einen ähnlichen Zweck wie beispielsweise ein Mobile.The purpose of the movement apparatus according to the invention is a movement structure to create which for decoration purposes or for other purposes in a room or can also be set up outdoors. It has a similar purpose as for example a mobile.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Bewegungsapparatur zu Dekorationszwecken zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide a movement apparatus for decorative purposes.

Die technische Lösung ist gekennzeichnet durch ein Rotationswerk mit wenigstens zwei, miteinander bewegungsgekoppelten Rotoren, jeder Rotor mit einem Basisdrehelement, wobei die Basisdrehelemente benachbarter Rotoren synchron mit gleicher Winkelgeschwindigkeit drehgekoppelt sind, sowie mit einem im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Drehachse des dazugehörigen Basisdrehelements angeordneten, ebenfalls um die Drehachse rotierenden sowie längsbeweglichen Haltearm, wobei die Haltearme der Rotoren derart mit den Drehbewegungen der Basisdrehelemente längsbeweglich gekoppelt sind, daß bei einem vollständigen Umlauf des Haltearms sich dieser mit seinem Vorderende in einer Spiralbahn bewegt und dabei die Haltearme benachbarter Rotoren um 180° derart bewegungsversetzt sind, daß sie eine kolinear aufeinander zu gerichtete Position aufweisen, in der die beiden Haltearme in die gleiche Richtung in die jeweiligen Endpositionen verschoben sind, weiterhin durch einen Körper, der am Vorderende des Haltearms des einen Rotors gehalten ist und in der kolinear aufeinander zu gerichteten Position dem Haltearm des anderen Rotors übergeben wird, sowie schließlich durch ein Antriebsaggregat für das Rotationswerk.The technical solution is characterized by a rotating mechanism with at least two rotors coupled to one another, each rotor with a base rotating element, the base rotating elements of adjacent rotors being synchronously rotationally coupled at the same angular velocity, and with a substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the associated base rotating element, likewise around the Axis rotating and longitudinally movable holding arm, the holding arms of the rotors being coupled to the rotational movements of the basic rotary elements in such a way that when the holding arm rotates completely, its front end moves in a spiral path and the holding arms of adjacent rotors are offset in such a way by 180 °, that they have a colinearly facing position, in which the two holding arms are displaced in the same direction in the respective end positions, further by a body at the front end of the Ha ltearms of one rotor is held and in the colinearly facing position is transferred to the holding arm of the other rotor, and finally by a drive unit for the rotary mechanism.

Dadurch ist eine Bewegungsapparatur zu Dekorationszwecken geschaffen, welche sich durch eine harmonische Bewegung einerseits des Rotationswerks und andererseits des Körpers auszeichnet. Die Grundidee besteht dabei darin, daß der Körper abwechselnd von dem einen Rotor dem anderen Rotor übergeben wird. Nach der Übergabe des Körpers vollführt der aufgenommene Körper aufgrund der Längsbewegung des Haltearms eine spiralförmige Bewegung, wobei nach einem vollen Umlauf dann der Haltearm derart ausgestreckt ist, daß er den Körper dem nunmehr eingezogenen Haltearm des anderen Rotors übergeben kann. Der Körper vollführt somit die Form einer Acht. Dies erzeugt insgesamt eine harmonische Bewegung mit der ständigen Übergabe des Körpers. Das Übergeben des Körpers vom einen Haltearm zum anderen kann durch eine entsprechende Ankuppeleinrichtung erfolgen, welche beispielsweise durch die Drehbewegung des Rotors gesteuert ist. Bei der Übergabe- bzw. Ankuppeleinrichtung kann es sich um Elektromagnete an den beiden Armen handeln, die entsprechend geschaltet werden, oder um Greifeinrichtungen, beispielsweise Zangen, welche über Steuerkurven betätigt werden, oder um Aufnahmenippel unter Verwendung von Steuerkurven. Weitere Einrichtungen sind ohne weiteres denkbar. In der Grundversion der Bewegungsapparatur besteht diese aus zwei Rotoren. Es ist aber auch denkbar, zur Verminderung der Unwucht insgesamt drei Rotoren vorzusehen, so daß dann zwei Körper vorzusehen sind, wobei dann natürlich die Bewegungen der drei Rotoren mit den zwei Körpern abgestimmt sein muß, wobei zwei Rotoren jeweils ein Rotor-Paar definieren.This creates a movement apparatus for decorative purposes, which are through a harmonious movement on the one hand of the rotary mechanism and on the other hand of the Body. The basic idea is that the body alternates from one rotor is handed over to the other rotor. After handing over the body the recorded body executes a spiral due to the longitudinal movement of the holding arm Movement, the holding arm then being extended in this way after a full revolution is that the body now retracts the holding arm of the other rotor can pass. The body thus takes the form of an eight. This creates a total a harmonious movement with the constant surrender of the body. Passing the Body from one arm to the other can be done by a suitable coupling device take place, which is controlled for example by the rotary movement of the rotor. The transfer or coupling device can be electromagnets on the two Act poor, which are switched accordingly, or around gripping devices, for example Pliers which are operated via control cams or around mounting nipples using control curves. Other facilities are easily conceivable. In the basic version of the movement apparatus consists of two rotors. But it is also conceivable to provide a total of three rotors to reduce the imbalance, so that then two bodies are to be provided, of course then the movements of the three rotors must be coordinated with the two bodies, with two rotors each defining a pair of rotors.

Eine Weiterbildung schlägt vor, daß die Basisdrehelemente gegenläufig sind. Entsprechend sind dann die Haltearme gegenläufig.A further development suggests that the basic rotating elements are in opposite directions. Corresponding then the holding arms are opposite.

Vorzugsweise handelt es sich bei den Basisdrehelementen um miteinander kämmende Zahnscheiben. Die Zahnscheiben der Rotoren greifen ineinander und erzeugen so auf einfache Weise die gegenläufige Bewegung der Basisdrehelemente. Unter Anordnung einer Zwischenzahnscheibe ist es natürlich ohne weiteres denkbar, daß die beiden Basisdrehelemente gleichläufig sind.The basic rotary elements are preferably meshing with one another Tooth lock washers. The toothed discs of the rotors mesh with one another and thus produce simple ones Way the opposite movement of the base rotating elements. Arranging one Intermediate toothed disk, it is of course easily conceivable that the two basic rotating elements are in sync.

Eine weitere Weiterbildung schlägt vor, daß jedem Basisdrehelement eine in deren Drehachse angeordnete, längsbewegliche Stange zugeordnet ist, welche derart in Wirkverbindung mit dem Haltearm steht, daß bei einer Längsbewegung der Stange der Haltearm längsverschoben wird. Dadurch ist eine einfache Möglichkeit gegeben, um die Haltearme während der Drehbewegung hin und her zu bewegen. Dabei kann die Stange beispielsweise als Zahnstange ausgebildet sein, welche mit einem Zahnrad in Wirkverbindung steht, wobei dieses Zahnrad wiederum in Wirkverbindung mit dem Haltearm steht, welcher als Zahnstange ausgebildet ist.A further development suggests that each basic rotary element has one in its axis of rotation arranged, longitudinally movable rod is assigned, which is operatively connected with the arm is that with a longitudinal movement of the rod of the arm is moved longitudinally. This provides an easy way to hold the arms to move back and forth during the rotation. The rod can, for example be designed as a rack, which is operatively connected to a gear, this gear is in turn in operative connection with the holding arm, which as Rack is formed.

Eine Weiterbildung hiervon schlägt vor, daß zum Antrieb der Stangen eine Kurbelwelle mit entsprechenden Kröpfungen für die Auslenkung der Stangen vorgesehen ist, wobei die Kurbelwelle über ein Zwischengetriebe mit den Basisdrehelementen synchronisiert ist. Dies stellt eine einfache Möglichkeit dar, um die Stangen auf und ab zu bewegen, indem man eine für sämtliche Rotoren gemeinsame Kurbelwelle vorsieht, in deren Kröpfungen die jeweilige Stange angelenkt ist. Insbesondere ist durch eine derartige Kurbelwelle eine einfache Synchronisation mit den Basisdrehelementen möglich. A further development of this proposes that a crankshaft be used to drive the rods appropriate cranking is provided for the deflection of the rods, the Crankshaft is synchronized with the basic rotary elements via an intermediate gear. This is an easy way to move the bars up and down by using provides a crankshaft common to all rotors, in the crankings of which the respective one Rod is articulated. In particular, such a crankshaft makes it simple Synchronization with the basic rotating elements possible.

Statt des beschriebenen Mechanismus zum Hin- und Herbewegen der Haltearme ist es auch denkbar, statt dessen eine Hebelanordnung zu verwenden, welche die Drehbewegung des Basiselements in eine Linearbewegung des Haltearms umsetzt.Instead of the described mechanism for moving the holding arms back and forth, it is also conceivable to use a lever arrangement instead, which the rotary movement of the base element is converted into a linear movement of the holding arm.

Eine weitere Weiterbildung schlägt vor, daß der Haltearm auf einem zum Basisdrehelement koaxialen Zusatzdrehelement angeordnet ist. Dies stellt eine technisch einfache Möglichkeit dar, um die Haltearme der jeweiligen Rotoren einfach lagern und führen zu können.A further development suggests that the holding arm on the base rotating element coaxial additional rotary element is arranged. This represents a technically simple way to be able to easily store and guide the holding arms of the respective rotors.

Eine Weiterbildung hiervon schlägt vor, daß das Zusatzdrehelement von dem Basisdrehelement derart entkuppelbar ist, daß das Zusatzdrehelement zusammen mit seinem Haltearm bezüglich des Basisdrehelements kurzzeitig vorlaufen kann. Dadurch ist eine zusätzliche Bewegungsvariante geschaffen, indem eine Bewegungsentkupplung erzeugt wird.A development of this suggests that the additional rotating element from the basic rotating element can be uncoupled such that the additional rotary element together with its holding arm can advance briefly with respect to the base rotating element. This makes an additional one Movement variant created by creating a movement decoupling.

Schließlich wird in einer Weiterbildung vorgeschlagen, daß das Antriebsaggregat in Wirkverbindung mit einem der Basisdrehelemente steht. Dieses Antriebsaggregat hat die Funktion, die gesamte Bewegungsapparatur in Bewegung zu halten. Selbstverständlich ist es auch denkbar, das Antriebsaggregat nur für eine gewisse Zeit zu betätigen und dann die Bewegungsapparatur sich selbst zu überlassen. Natürlich wird es nach einer gewissen Zeit zum Stillstand kommen, so daß das Antriebsaggregat neu betätigt werden muß. Um bei abgeschaltetem Antriebsaggregat die Bewegung für eine längere Zeit aufrechtzuerhalten, kann zusätzlich noch ein Schwungrad vorgesehen sein.Finally, it is proposed in a further development that the drive unit is in operative connection with one of the basic rotating elements. This drive unit has the function to keep the entire musculoskeletal system in motion. Of course it is also conceivable to operate the drive unit only for a certain time and then the Leave the musculoskeletal system to itself. Of course it will after a while come to a standstill so that the drive unit must be operated again. To at the drive unit is switched off to keep moving for a longer period of time, a flywheel can also be provided.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Bewegungsapparatur zu Dekorationszwecken wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnungen beschrieben. In diesen zeigt:

Fig. 1
eine schematische Ansicht der Bewegungsapparatur;
Fig. 2
eine Draufsicht auf die Bewegungsapparatur in Fig. 1, wobei die Bewegungsbahn des Körpers angedeutet ist.
An embodiment of a movement apparatus according to the invention for decoration purposes is described below with reference to the drawings. In these shows:
Fig. 1
a schematic view of the movement apparatus;
Fig. 2
a plan view of the movement apparatus in Fig. 1, wherein the movement path of the body is indicated.

Die Bewegungsapparatur weist ein Gehäuse 1 auf, auf dessen Oberseite ein Rotationswerk 2 angeordnet ist. Dieses besteht aus zwei Rotoren 2', 2". Die beiden Rotoren 2', 2" sind dabei vom Grundprinzip her identisch ausgebildet.The movement apparatus has a housing 1, on the top of which a rotating mechanism 2 is arranged. This consists of two rotors 2 ', 2 ". The two rotors 2', 2" are The basic principle is identical.

Jeder Rotor 2', 2" weist zunächst ein Basisdrehelement in Form einer Zahnscheibe 3 auf, wobei die beiden Zahnscheiben 3 der beiden Rotoren 2', 2" miteinander kämmen. Oberhalb der Zahnscheibe 3 ist ein Zusatzdrehelement in Form einer Massenscheibe 4 angeordnet. Diese Massenscheibe 4 ist ebenfalls drehbar um die Drehachse A der Zahnscheibe 3 gelagert, wobei die Drehbewegungen der Zahnscheibe 3 und der Massenscheibe 4 entweder miteinander gekoppelt oder entkoppelt werden können. Auf der Massenscheibe 4 ist auf einem Art Gestell ein Haltearm 5 längsverschiebbar gelagert, wobei der Haltearm 5 im wesentlichen in der Drehachse A liegt. In der Drehachse A liegt eine Stange 6, welche als eine Art Zahnstange ausgebildet ist. Diese Stange 6 steht in Verbindung mit einem Ritzel 7, welches wiederum mit dem Haltearm 5 in Wirkverbindung steht, der zu diesem Zweck als Zahnstange ausgebildet ist.Each rotor 2 ', 2 "initially has a base rotating element in the form of a toothed disk 3, the two toothed disks 3 of the two rotors 2 ', 2 "mesh with one another. Above an additional rotating element in the form of a mass disk 4 is arranged on the toothed disk 3. This mass disk 4 is also rotatably mounted about the axis of rotation A of the toothed disk 3, the rotational movements of the toothed disk 3 and the mass disk 4 either can be coupled or uncoupled. On the mass disk 4 is on a type of frame a support arm 5 mounted longitudinally, the support arm 5 substantially lies in the axis of rotation A. In the axis of rotation A is a rod 6, which as one Type rack is formed. This rod 6 is connected to a pinion 7, which in turn is in operative connection with the holding arm 5, which is used for this purpose Rack is formed.

Innerhalb des Gehäuses 1 befindet sich eine Kurbelwelle 8 mit 2 Kröpfungen 9. In diesen Kröpfungen 9 ist jeweils eine Stange 6 der beiden Rotoren 2', 2" drehbar angelenkt. Außerhalb des Gehäuses 1 ist noch ein Schwungrad 10 angedeutet. Weiterhin steht die Kurbelwelle 8 über ein Zwischengetriebe 11 mit der rechten Zahnscheibe 3 in Wirkverbindung. Schließlich ist außerhalb des Gehäuses 1 noch ein Antriebsaggregat 12 angeordnet, bei dem es sich beispielsweise um einen Elektromotor handeln kann und das über ein Zahnritzel mit der einen Zahnscheibe 3 in Wirkverbindung steht. Schließlich ist noch erkennbar, daß am vorderen Ende des einen Rotors 2' ein Körper 13 angekuppelt ist.Inside the housing 1 there is a crankshaft 8 with 2 crankings 9 Cranks 9 each have a rod 6 rotatably articulated on the two rotors 2 ', 2 ". Outside of the housing 1, a flywheel 10 is also indicated. The crankshaft also stands 8 via an intermediate gear 11 with the right toothed pulley 3 in operative connection. Finally, a drive unit 12 is arranged outside the housing 1, at which can be an electric motor, for example, and that via a pinion is in operative connection with a toothed lock washer 3. Finally it can be seen that a body 13 is coupled to the front end of a rotor 2 '.

Die Bewegungsapparatur funktioniert wie folgt:The musculoskeletal system works as follows:

Das Antriebsaggregat 12 versetzt die beiden Zahnscheiben 3 in eine gegenläufige Drehbewegung. Da die rechte Zahnscheibe 3 mit dem Zwischengetriebe 11 in Wirkverbindung steht, wird gleichermaßen die Kurbelwelle 8 in eine Drehbewegung versetzt. Bei dieser Drehbewegung der Kurbelwelle 8 bewegen sich die beiden Stangen 6 abwechselnd nach oben und nach unten. Bei dieser Bewegung der Stangen 6 werden die Haltearme 5 über das Ritzel 7 verschoben, wie insbesondere in den Zeichnungen die Positionen der beiden Haltearme 5 im Hinblick auf die Positionen der beiden Stangen 6 erkennen lassen.The drive unit 12 sets the two toothed disks 3 in an opposite rotational movement. Since the right toothed pulley 3 is in operative connection with the intermediate gear 11 stands, the crankshaft 8 is equally rotated. At this Rotation of the crankshaft 8 moves the two rods 6 alternately up and down. During this movement of the rods 6, the holding arms 5 are over the pinion 7 shifted, as in particular in the drawings the positions of the two Holding arms 5 can be seen with regard to the positions of the two rods 6.

In Fig. 2 ist erkennbar, daß der Körper 13 am Vorderende des Haltearms 5 des linken Rotors 2' angekoppelt ist. Der Haltearm 5 vollführt eine Drehbewegung in Richtung des Pfeiles, so daß schließlich der Körper 13 in die punktierte Rechteckposition gelangt. In dieser Position ist der Haltearm 5 des rechten Rotors 2" entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn um den gleichen Winkelbetrag weitergewandert, so daß die beiden Haltearme 5 exakt einander gegenüber stehen. Der Haltearm 5 des rechten Rotors 2" ist dabei in der zurückgezogenen Position. In dieser Position kann der Haltearm 5 des rechten Rotors 2" den Körper 13 ankoppeln, indem gleichzeitig der Körper 13 vom Haltearm 5 des linken Rotors 2' entkoppelt wird. In Fig. 2 it can be seen that the body 13 at the front end of the support arm 5 of the left rotor 2 'is coupled. The holding arm 5 performs a rotary movement in the direction of the arrow, so that the body 13 finally reaches the dotted rectangular position. In this Position is the holding arm 5 of the right rotor 2 "counterclockwise around the same Hiked angular amount, so that the two holding arms 5 exactly opposite each other stand. The holding arm 5 of the right rotor 2 "is in the retracted position. In this position, the holding arm 5 of the right rotor 2 ″ can couple the body 13, by simultaneously decoupling the body 13 from the holding arm 5 of the left rotor 2 '.

Bei der weiteren Drehbewegung des rechten Haltearms 5 bewegt sich die zugehörige Stange 6 nach oben und fährt dabei den Haltearm 5 radial nach vome hin aus, so daß der Körper 13 eine spiralförmige Bahn beschreibt. Nach einer vollen Umdrehung befindet sich dann der Körper 13 in Fig. 2 in der linken punktierten Rechteckposition. Dort ist dann der Haltearm 5 des linken Rotors 2' eingefahren und kann so den Körper 1 wieder ankoppeln und der rechte Haltearm 5 den Körper 13 entkoppeln. Nachdem nun der linke Haltearm 5 den Körper 13 aufgenommen hat, vollführt dieser wieder eine spiralförmige Bewegung auf der in Fig. 2 linken Schleife, bis der Körper 13 und damit das ganze System wieder die Ausgangsposition erreicht hat. Es findet somit ein stetiger Wechsel des Körpers 13 vom einen Rotor 2' zum anderen Rotor 2" und umgekehrt statt.As the right holding arm 5 rotates further, the associated one moves Rod 6 upwards and extends the holding arm 5 radially towards the front, so that the Body 13 describes a spiral path. After a full turn there is then the body 13 in Fig. 2 in the left dotted rectangle position. Then there is the Retaining arm 5 of the left rotor 2 'retracted and can thus couple the body 1 again and the right arm 5 decouple the body 13. Now that the left arm 5 has received the body 13, it performs a spiral movement again the left in Fig. 2 until the body 13 and thus the whole system again Has reached the starting position. There is thus a constant change of the body 13 from one rotor 2 'to the other rotor 2 "and vice versa.

Das Zwischengetriebe 11 stellt sicher, daß das Rotationswerk 2 mit der doppelten Drehzahl der Kurbelwelle 8 läuft und daß die beiden Haltearme 5 im Zeitpunkt der Übergabe des Körpers 13 einander gegenüber stehen, wenn die Kurbelwelle 8 auf dem unteren bzw. oberen Totpunkt ist. Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, daß die Massenscheiben 4 mit ihren Haltearmen 5 kurzzeitig von den Zahnscheiben 3 entkuppelt werden können, so daß ein relativer Vorlauf zwischen der Zahnscheibe 3 und der Massenscheibe 4 mit ihrem Haltearm 5 möglich ist.The intermediate gear 11 ensures that the rotary mechanism 2 at twice the speed the crankshaft 8 runs and that the two holding arms 5 at the time of delivery of the Body 13 face each other when the crankshaft 8 on the lower or upper Is dead center. It is also provided that the mass disks 4 with their holding arms 5 can be uncoupled briefly from the toothed disks 3, so that a relative lead possible between the toothed disk 3 and the mass disk 4 with its holding arm 5 is.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei Rotoren 2', 2" vorgesehen. Selbstverständlich ist es auch denkbar, drei Rotoren mit zwei Körpern vorzusehen, um dadurch beispielsweise die Unwucht des Systems zu verringern. In the illustrated embodiment, two rotors 2 ', 2 "are provided. Of course it is also conceivable to provide three rotors with two bodies, for example in order to thereby reduce the imbalance of the system.

  1. Mobile for decoration purposes
       characterised by
    a rotation mechanism (2) with at least two rotors (2', 2'') coupled together in movement, each rotor (2', 2'') with a base rotary element, where the base rotary elements of adjacent rotors (2', 2'') are rotationally coupled in synchrony with the same angular speed,
    and with a retaining arm (5) which is arranged essentially perpendicular to the axis of rotation (A) of the associated base rotary element, and also longitudinally displaceable and rotating about rotary axis (A), where the retaining arms (5) of rotors (2', 2'') are coupled longitudinally displaceable with the rotary movements of the base rotary elements so that on a complete revolution of the retaining arm (5) this moves with its front end in a spiral path, and the retaining arms (5) of adjacent rotors (2', 2'') are offset in movement by 180° such that they have a position in which they are aligned co-linear with each other in which the two retaining arms (5) are moved in the same direction into their respective end positions,
    also by a body (13) which is held at the front end of the retaining arm (5) of one rotor (2', 2'') and is transferred to the retaining arm (5) of the other rotor (2', 2'') in the position in which they are aligned co-linear with each other,
    and finally by a drive device (12) for the rotation mechanism (2).
  2. Mobile according to claim 1,
    characterised in that
    the base rotary elements run in opposing directions.
  3. Mobile according to claims 1 or 2,
    characterised in that
    the base rotary elements are toothed wheels (3) which intermesh with each other.
  4. Mobile according to any of claims 1 to 3,
    characterised in that
    allocated to each base rotary element and arranged in its axis of rotation (A) is a longitudinally displaceable rod (6) which is actively connected with the retaining arm (5) such that on longitudinal movement of the rod (6) the retaining arm (5) is longitudinally displaced.
  5. Mobile according to claim 4,
    characterised in that
    to drive the rods (6) a crankshaft (8) is provided with corresponding hooks (9) for deflecting the rods (6), where the crankshaft (8) is synchronised with the base rotary elements via an intermediate gear (11).
  6. Mobile according to any of claims 1 to 4,
    characterised in that
    the retaining arm (5) is arranged on an additional rotary element coaxial with the base rotary element.
  7. Mobile according to claim 6,
    characterised in that
    the additional rotary element can be decoupled from the base rotary element such that the additional rotary element together with its retaining arm (5) can briefly run in advance of the base rotary element.
  8. Mobile according to any of claims 1 to 7,
    characterised in that
    the drive device (12) is actively connected with one of the base rotary elements.
