A slider-crank linkage is a four-bar linkage with three revolute joints and one prismatic, or sliding, joint. The rotation of the crank drives the linear movement the slider, or the expansion of gases against a sliding piston in a cylinder can drive the rotation of the crank. There are two types of slider-cranks: in-line and offset. In-line
Link 1 (horizontal distance between ground joints): 4a Illustration of the limits. In kinematics, Chebyshev's linkage is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate linear motion. It was invented by the 19th-century mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev, who studied theoretical problems in kinematic mechanisms.
Linkage mobility Locking pliers exemplify a four-bar, one degree of freedom mechanical linkage. The adjustable base pivot makes this a two degree-of-freedom five-bar linkage . It is common practice to design the linkage system so that the movement of all of the bodies are constrained to lie on parallel planes, to form what is known as a planar ...
Watt's linkage consists of three bars bolted together in a chain. The chain of bars consists of two end bars and a middle bar. The middle bar is bolted at each of its ends to one of the ends of each outer bar. The two outer bars are of equal length, and are longer than the middle bar. The three bars can pivot around the two bolts.
A Chebyshev Translating Table Linkage, which combines together two cognate linkages: the Chebyshev Linkage and Chebyshev Lambda Linkage. In kinematics , the Chebyshev Lambda Linkage [ 1 ] is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate straight-line motion with approximate constant velocity. [ 2 ]
In case of four-bar linkage coupler cognates, the Roberts–Chebyshev Theorem, after Samuel Roberts and Pafnuty Chebyshev, [1] states that each coupler curve can be generated by three different four-bar linkages. These four-bar linkages can be constructed using similar triangles and parallelograms, and the Cayley diagram (named after Arthur ...
Link 1 (distance between ground joints): 2a. In kinematics, the Hoecken linkage (named for Karl Hoecken) [1] is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate straight-line motion. The Hoecken linkage is a cognate linkage of the Chebyshev linkage and Chebyshev's Lambda Mechanism. The linkage was first published in 1926. [2] [3]
These four-bar linkages have coupler curves that have one or more regions of approximately perfect straight line motion. The exception in this list is Watt's parallel motion, which combines Watt's linkage with another four-bar linkage – the pantograph – to amplify the existing approximate straight line movement.
