Disclosed is a drive mechanism. The motor unit generates a rotational force to rotate the motor shaft. The primary shaft is adapted to be rotated upon rotation of the motor shaft. The plurality of partially toothed gears are adapted to be rotated upon rotation of the primary shaft. The plurality of fully-toothed gears rotates upon rotation of the plurality of partially toothed gears, and the plurality of secondary shafts rotate upon rotation of the plurality of fully toothed gears. The plurality of plates includes an engaging surface and a plurality of grooves, such that each groove of the plurality of grooves is adapted to engage with a ball portion of each spring loaded ball plunger of the plurality of spring loaded ball plungers during the rotation of the each fully toothed gear of the plurality of fully toothed gears to intermittently rotate each secondary shaft.
The drive mechanism of claim 1, further comprising a holding plate that is coupled to the primary shaft and adapted to be coupled to the plurality of partially toothed gears.
The drive mechanism of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of plunger holding plates that are coupled to the plurality of secondary shafts and adapted to be coupled to the plurality of fully teethed gears.
The drive mechanism of claim 1, wherein the motor unit further comprising at least one input drive gear coupled to the motor shaft such that the at least one input drive gear rotates upon rotation of the motor shaft.
The drive mechanism of claim 1, further comprising at least one driven output gear that is in mesh engagement with the least one input drive gear and adapted to be rotated upon rotation of the at least one input drive gear.
