I believe it's called "planetary gears", but not certain. If user s_noonan sees this, I'm sure that he would know.
I know what you mean with "this", and it's probably not named - it's just a scotch yoke connected to a cycloid (not the mechanism itself - the trace that one point on the periphery of a rolling circle does is called a cycloid). so i don't know what kind of application it could have.
The cycloid is okay though. The problem with it is harnessing the power from the middle gear, which in most real life cases is flexible iirc.
okay, thanks
Maybe the faster clock?
