    This is a scotch yoke mechanism... Actually a scotch yoke can rotate 360, but this is a great implementation for a servo.

    linear velocity changes due to rotation angle, so you should use parametric motion equations to get a constant speed or a uniform acceleration

    Very nice design. By looking at your configuration allowed me to design, in my head, a variation of your design that I need for continuous reciprocating motion. I need that rod to continuously reciprocate. I can see that one change would be is to raise the rod and turn it 90 degrees and have it come out of the center of the connector on the servo crank, clearing the rod for a 360 degree rotation. The servo would have to be modified to continuously rotate and that would satisfy my requirement. I am animating the swinging of a bell on a G scale steam engine. This would work super and thanks again for the idea. Robert Brown.

    wouldn't work that way, unless you flex the rod or add another linkage. What would work, though, would be to offset the bushing outside the rotating diameter of the servo wheel and make the end bit longer.

    @@alexandrumoise1511 It should be possible. Tested and simulated it in fusion 360. You need to move the "fixed busing" all to the right. It will then allow you to turn the servo 360 degrees without any crash. Sorry for bad explanation, but it is possible.

    This is not a genuine linear action along that axis as the rotational arc of the servo disk mean that the motion distance along the pushrods axis reduces as the servo moves from its centre point !
