The mechanical digital gear is a method of converting rotary motion to controllable reciprocating motion, and visa versa. Whereas the gear teeth reciprocate within two blocks 'A'. One block 'A' teeth mesh with the rotary shaft [Mechanical Digital Shaft, Canadian Patent Application #2,355,766]. The reciprocating motion begins in one direction. To change the direction of the reciprocating motion, the said block 'A' teeth breaks contact with the rotary shaft as the said set of teeth retract into its housing. The opposing block 'A' teeth then engage with the rotary shaft changing the direction of travel of the reciprocating motion. This particular method can be used to replace the conventional "crankshaft and piston" layout of the internal combustion engine or anywhere this type of conversion (from rotary to reciprocating motion) is required. As in the case of industrial grinders, where the length of the reciprocating motion can vary.
