  2. Crowbar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crowbar

    A crowbar with a curved chisel end to provide a fulcrum for leverage and a goose neck to pull nails. A crowbar, also called a wrecking bar, pry bar or prybar, pinch-bar, or occasionally a prise bar or prisebar, colloquially gooseneck, or pig bar, or in Australia a jemmy, [1] is a lever consisting of a metal bar with a single curved end and flattened points, used to force two objects apart or ...

  5. Slider crank chain inversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slider_crank_chain_inversion

    Slider-crank chain inversion arises when the connecting rod, or coupler, of a slider-crank linkage becomes the ground link, so the slider is connected directly to the crank. This inverted slider-crank is the form of a slider-crank linkage that is often used to actuate a hinged joint in construction equipment like a crane or backhoe, as well as ...

  6. Four-bar linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-bar_linkage

    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 ...

    A chain suspension bridge - Clifton Suspension Bridge The bars may be fabricated with pin holes that are slightly undersized. If so, these are then reamed in the field. This field reaming ensures that stresses will be uniformly distributed among the several bars forming the truss element or the chain link.

  8. Breaker bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaker_bar

    Breaker bar. A breaker bar (also known as a power bar) is a long non-ratcheting bar that is used with socket wrench-style sockets.They are used to break loose very tight fasteners because their additional length allows the same amount of force to generate significantly more torque than a standard length socket wrench.

  9. Pincers (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pincers_(tool)

    Pincers are a hand tool used in many situations where a mechanical advantage is required to pinch, cut or pull an object. Pincers are first-class levers , but differ from pliers in that the concentration of force is either to a point, or to an edge perpendicular to the length of the tool.
