An apparatus to convert linear motion to rotary motion comprising a linear reciprocating member including a track drive member to be coupled to an input device and a rotatable track member including a track to be coupled to an output device wherein the track drive member is disposed to engage the track such that when the input device moves the linear reciprocating member back and forth the track drive member moves along the track rotating the rotatable track member to convert the linear motion imparted to the linear reciprocating member by the input device to the rotary motion of the rotatable track member to operate or drive the output device.
