Does this mechanism got a name?
I got this Köhler vibrating shuttle sewing machine with this wobbling disk mechanism. You can see it in this video:

I guess that this mechanism got a better name. Do you know the name?
Have you seen this kind of mechanism in other sewing machines?

I just like to add, that the normal mechanism I have seen to make the same kind of movement are made with the Arm Shaft and Arm Rock Shaft like you see on a Singer 66 and a lot of other sewing machines. This is from the parts list of a Singer 66:

I found a bit more now. This is a video showing the mechanics of a Free Sewing Machine Company sewing machine no. 255C. It is from Rockford, Illinois. I am not sure when the machine was produced.
The mechanism seems to be named "Rotoscillo". This is youtube video showing the mechanics of this machine:

This is a link to a manual:

It have got the same kind of wobbling mechanism, but placed in another position. Furthermore it got a bearing link system for the needle bar and take-up lever as this Köhler machine got.
The machine from Free Sewing Machine Company has been presented before in this forum:
