Loci in Epicyclic gearing A4m

R: pitch diameter of the fixed sun gear r: pitch diameter of the planetary gear k = R/r = 4 Distance between the pin axis and the gear axis of the planetary gear is (11/30)r to get a square locus of straight side for the center of the pin. This produces a smoother indexing motion of the orange Geneva disk rotates because the driving pin moves on a noncircular path, unlike in standard Geneva mechanism.
