N = 2, j = 1: this is a two-bar linkage known as the lever; N = 4, j = 4: this is the four-bar linkage; N = 6, j = 7: this is a six-bar linkage [ it has two links that have three joints, called ternary links, and there are two topologies of this linkage depending how these links are connected. In the Watt topology, the two ternary links are ...
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]
An example of a simple closed chain is the RSSR spatial four-bar linkage. The sum of the freedom of these joints is eight, so the mobility of the linkage is two, where one of the degrees of freedom is the rotation of the coupler around the line joining the two S joints.
In the study of mechanisms, a four-bar linkage, also called a four-bar, is the simplest closed-chain movable linkage. It consists of four bodies, called bars or links, connected in a loop by four joints. Generally, the joints are configured so the links move in parallel planes, and the assembly is called a planar four-bar linkage. Spherical and ...
Ackermann geometry. The Ackermann steering geometry (also called Ackermann's steering trapezium) [1] is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car or other vehicle designed to solve the problem of wheels on the inside and outside of a turn needing to trace out circles of different radii.
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 Hoberman mechanism, or Hoberman linkage, is a deployable mechanism that turns linear motion into radial motion. The Hoberman mechanism is made of two angulated ridged bars connected at a central point by a revolute joint , making it move much like a scissor mechanism . [ 1 ]
The former ground link of the fusing 4-bar linkage becomes a rectilinear link that travels follows the same coupler curve. Each of these paired six-bar cognate linkages can also be converted into another cognate linkage by flipping the linkage over, and switching the roles of the rectilinear link and the ground link.
