Transmission of Linear Displacement

There are two belts. One belt end is fixed to pulley.
When the pink slider moves regularly, so does the yellow.
Transmission ratio of linear displacement between two sliders is 1 if two pulleys have the same belt contact diameter.
Spring may be cut down for the driving slider.
Angle between sliding directions is arbitrary.
This is similar to case of two rack-pinion mechanisms.
