  2. Pantograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantograph

    Drafting pantograph in use Pantograph used for scaling a picture. The red shape is traced and enlarged. Pantograph 3d rendering. A pantograph (from Greek παντ- 'all, every' and γραφ- 'to write', from their original use for copying writing) is a mechanical linkage connected in a manner based on parallelograms so that the movement of one pen, in tracing an image, produces identical ...

  3. Five-bar linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-bar_linkage

    This configuration is also called a pantograph, [2] [3] however, it is not to be confused with the parallelogram-copying linkage pantograph. The linkage can be a one-degree-of-freedom mechanism if two gears are attached to two links and are meshed together, forming a geared five-bar mechanism.

  4. Burmester's theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burmester's_theory

    Burmester's approach to the synthesis of a four-bar linkage can be formulated mathematically by introducing coordinate transformations [T i] = [A i, d i], i = 1, ..., 5, where [A] is a 2×2 rotation matrix and d is a 2×1 translation vector, that define task positions of a moving frame M specified by the designer.

  5. How Round Is Your Circle? - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_Round_Is_Your_Circle?

    The construction of physical measuring and calculating devices including rulers, protractors, pantographs, planimeters, integrators, and slide rules [2] [3] Mechanical linkages, pantographs, four-bar linkages, and the problem of converting rotary to linear motion, solved by the Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage and by Hart's inversor [4] [5]

  6. Leader–member exchange theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leader–member_exchange...

    The leader–member exchange (LMX) theory is a relationship-based approach to leadership that focuses on the two-way relationship between leaders and followers. [1]The latest version (2016) of leader–member exchange theory of leadership development explains the growth of vertical dyadic workplace influence and team performance in terms of selection and self-selection of informal ...

  7. Vertical dyad linkage theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_Dyad_Linkage_Theory

    The Vertical Dyad Linkage Theory is a theory that deals with the individual dyadic relationships formed between leaders and their subordinates. [1] It is also widely known as The Leadership-Member Exchange (LMX) Theory. [2] Originally, the theory has been developed by Fred Dansereau, George Graen and William J. Haga, in 1975. [3]

  8. Parallel motion linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_motion_linkage

    The parallel motion differed from Watt's linkage by having an additional pantograph linkage incorporated in the design. This did not affect the fundamental principle but it allowed the engine room to be smaller because the linkage was more compact. [2] The Newcomen engine's piston was propelled downward by the atmospheric pressure.

  9. Straight-line mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-line_mechanism

    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.
