The driving wheel rotates about a central axis resulting in rotation of the parts carrier about an offset axis, which is offset from the central axis.

A cam is pivotally mounted on the handle about a second axis offset from the first axis.

The second counterbalance rotates about a second axis offset and parallel to the first axis.

The second counterbalance rotates about a second axis offset and parallel to the first axis.

The offset axis drum (26) further includes a slightly decreasing radius.

The platen assembly is pivotable about an axis offset from, but parallel to, an axis of rotation of the platen drive gear.

A second cylinder (94) extends from the central cylinder and defines a second axis (B) offset from and parallel to the first axis.

The apparatus also includes a drive ring which is configured to rotate about a second axis which is offset from the first axis of the transfer segments (40).

Additionally, in one or more implementations, the actuator can rotate about a first axis, and the hook can rotate about a second axis offset from the first axis.

The rotatable body has an axis of rotation with at least one offset nozzle such that, as fluid is ejected from the at least one offset nozzle, the fluid applies a rotational force to the rotatable body.

The vanes (36, 38) each rotate and move about a central axis whilst being constrained by a guide (48) rotating about an axis offset from the central axis.

Such 'off-axis-' cutting can modify the cross-sectional shape and area of each strut, along its length.

A novel plano lens and eyewear incorporating such lens is presented wherein the plano lens comprises a front surface curvature which is created by rotating an aspheric shape about an axis which is offset from an axis of the aspheric shape.

The roller cam has a cam body (52).

An improved throttle body (20) includes an offset axis drum valve (26) and shaped throat (58).
