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
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 ...
The coupler (link 3) point stays within 1% positional tolerance while intersecting the ideal straight line 6 times. The linkage was first shown in Paris on the Exposition Universelle (1878) as "The Plantigrade Machine". [5] [3] The Chebyshev Lambda Linkage is a cognate linkage of the Chebyshev linkage.
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.

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.
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.
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]
