      The meridians of a Euclidean surface of revolution with constant mean curvature have a nice kinematic generation. This paper shows that in hyperbolic three-space there exists a hyperbolic kinematics counterpart. The author studies plane curves \(\gamma _{e,p}\) which share some focal properties with the Euclidean conic sections. The path of its focus under the plane hyperbolic rolling of \(\gamma\) on a geodesic \(a\) shall be denoted by \(c\). Hyperbolic rotation of \(c\) around the axis \(a\) gives a hyperbolic surface of revolution with meridian \(c\). This surface then has constant (hyperbolic) mean curvature.
