The ideal solution is to dedicate one motor to each moving element (plate, crank&#8230;) because this will limit the risk of recurrent periodical movements that will prevent the creation of regular shapes. Yet, for economic reasons in particular, one single motor may be used to activate various movements through the use of belts and gear-wheels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\">Speed reducers are mostly gear-wheels systems. They are usually designed to be associated to a precise type of motor (the association being called &lsquo;moto-reducer&rsquo;) but it is often posible to connect a reducer coming from the dump to any type of motor. One can also build a speed reducer using pulleys and belts (see next paragraph).<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 683px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 323.383px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2645 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/moteurs1a-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"395\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/moteurs1a-1.jpg 395w, https:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/moteurs1a-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 326.617px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2646 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Photo-a-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"395\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Photo-a-1.jpg 395w, https:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Photo-a-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; width: 323.383px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><em>DC motor (originally the motor of a washing-machine) with its speed reducer (made by GAP47) <\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center; width: 326.617px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><em>Triphase AC motor-reducer with pulleys and notch belts (built by <\/em> <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mirro-sphere.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mirro-Sph\u00e8re<\/a>) <\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Speed variation device :<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\">Different devices may be used to permit variations of speed&nbsp;:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Pulleys and belts&nbsp;:<\/strong> Advantages: resistant, economical (they can be made or one may get them from other machines).

The pin gets located into a hole in the back of the top disk in order to move it. That hole must be perfectly centered. It may be bored directly into the material of the tool disk (wood, plaster&#8230;) but is is more advisable to fit a metal lining into the disk to get better wear resistance (it may be especially machined for the purpose or be a mere metal tube set into the tool). If the connection is not a ball and socket system, the dimension of the hole must be sufficient for the top disk to be free to find a correct position fitting the bottom disk. If the mirror is placed on top, one may consider gluing a wooden or metal block to its back, using the cement used by opticians (pitch + sealing wax). The hole is then bored into that block and carefully centered with regard to the disk. Whatever the solution chosen, the pin (or the ball) must be placed as close to the surface of the disk as possible so as to limit the leverage effect which may lead to the creation of a turned edge, if it is too important.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Alligator&nbsp;:<\/strong> It is a frame that surrounds the glass disk and holds it by its side thanks to side pads. In order to limit stresses to the mirror and let it turn freely, the contact surface must be as small as possible and the pads must be as slippery as they can be (teflon pads, rollers,&#8230;). This alligator device is ideal for placing the driving contact as close as possible to the mirror surface, which limits the risks of a rocking effect. Yet it requires a regular shape of the mirror side (circular and vertical). The alligator is mostly used on Hindle-type machines but it may be adapted to other types of machines (see photo below).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Top holder&nbsp;:<\/strong> It will consist of a plate or a star-shaped structure holding side blocking pads. It may be in contact with the back of the disk placed under. In this case it is advisable to place some kind of padding underneath so as to reduce the risk of flexion of the mirror. A ball pin will allow it some freedom of movements to follow the swinging moves of the disk as it slides along the sphere.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table style=\"width: 740.95px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 236px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2652\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Rotule-a-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 235px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2653\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Crocodile-a-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 228.95px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2654\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/PICT0010-a-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 236px; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 20px;\"><em>Transmission through a pin-and-ball device (built by <\/em> <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mirro-sphere.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mirro-Sph\u00e8re<\/a>) <\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 235px; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 20px;\"><em>Transmission using an alligator (made by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.martin-cibulski.de\/atm\/grinding_machine\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Martin Cibulski<\/a>) <\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 228.95px; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 20px;\"><em>Transmission thanks to a top holder (made by GAP47) <\/em><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Turntable :<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\">The sturdiness of the structure supporting the turntable will depend on the weight of the elements and the overhang (diameter of the axis, presence of ball-bearings or not, side blockers, &#8230;).

For this, one replaces the drive pin by a felt pen (in perfect central position) and a sheet of paper is fastened to the turntable (sticky tape, for instance). A white plastic sheet for whiteboards will be a good alternative. To start with, all eccentrics must be set to zero (they mustn&rsquo;t make your finger move when set rotating). Then the felt pen is lead to rest on the paper (no pressure being applied) and the turntable&rsquo;s rotation is started. If the drive pin&rsquo;s axis is not perfectly centered with the turntable there will be a circle forming whose radius will correspond to the distance that must be eliminated. The same technique can be used to get a representation of the drive pin as it is moved by the crank(s) set in motion. This way one can make sure the disk&rsquo;s movements regularly meet the centre or that there is no periodicity in the movement (in which case the loops follow the same path and get superimposed one after another).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif; font-size: 20px;\">The glass disk itself must be perfectly centered on the turntable. To check this, the turntable is set rotating and, thanks to a marker or a probe running along the side of the mirror (a piece of wood or a probe indicator), one checks for possible fluctuations. If need be the mirror must be centered more properly by working on the side blocks holding the mirror (avoid complete constraint).<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 732px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2662\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Centrage_plateau-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 228.55px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2663\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Figure_mouvement-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 232.45px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2664\" src=\"http:\/\/gap47.astrosurf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/centrer_disque-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"191\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px;
