Zusammenfassung:A drive mechanism includes a stacked motor assembly. The stacked motor assembly includes a first motor, a first rotatable driver member rotationally fixed to the first motor, a second motor vertically spaced from the first motor, and a second rotatable driver member rotationally fixed to the second motor. The drive mechanism also includes an output shaft spaced from the first motor and the second motor and a flexible drive member rotatably coupling the first rotatable driver member, the second rotatable driver member, and the output shaft together such that rotation of the first rotatable drive member by the first motor and rotation of the second rotatable driver member by the second motor impart rotational torque to the output shaft. The drive mechanism further includes an output belt fixed to the output shaft and configured to be wound about the output shaft upon rotation of the output shaft.
