Joe,
I think "brush tube plate" is a good way of describing it, as it is the brass plate that the tubes attach to that moves.
That free standing Jack rabbit is very different and cool. Now that you know what you are looking for, you will run across one or two.

Not nearly enough though.
I'd like to have one like the first few pics you showed. That would make treadles very versatile. Or just be different.
