  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. 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.

  4. Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peaucellier–Lipkin_linkage

    Animation for Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage: Dimensions: Cyan Links = a Green Links = b Yellow Links = c. The Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage (or Peaucellier–Lipkin cell, or Peaucellier–Lipkin inversor), invented in 1864, was the first true planar straight line mechanism – the first planar linkage capable of transforming rotary motion into perfect straight-line motion, and vice versa.

  5. 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.

  7. Linkage (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linkage_(mechanical)

    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 ...

  8. 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.

  9. Four-bar linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-bar_linkage

    If the linkage has four hinged joints with axes angled to intersect in a single point, then the links move on concentric spheres and the assembly is called a spherical four-bar linkage. The input-output equations of a spherical four-bar linkage can be applied to spatial four-bar linkages when the variables are replaced by dual numbers. [8]
