Kinematics and Dynamics • Position Analysis • Velocity Analysis • Acceleration Analysis • Force Analysis We will concentrate on four-bar linkages
q l s p Four-Bar Linkages • What type of motion is possible?
q l s p Grashof’s Criteria • Used to determine whether or not at least one of the links can rotate 360o • the sum of the shortest and longest links of a planar four-bar mechanism cannot be greater than the sum of the remaining two links if there is to be continuous relative rotation between the two links. • s + l < p + q

coupler output link input link Transmission Angle • One objective of position analysis is to determine the transmission angle, • Desire transmission angle to be in the range: • 45o < < 135o
coupler output link input link in Position Analysis • Given the length of all links, and the input angle,in, what is the position of all other links? • Use vector position analysis or analytical geometry
Vector Position Analysis • ‘Close the loop’ of vectors to get a vector equation with two unknowns • Three possible solution techniques: • Graphical Solution • Vector Components • Complex Arithmetic
Graphical Solution • Draw ground and input links to scale, and at correct angle • Draw arcs (circles) corresponding to length of coupler and output links • Intersection points represent possible solutions
R y, i 3 x, j 4 2 O4 O2 Vector Component Solution ‘Close the loop’ to get a vector equation:
Vector Component Solution (con’t) Rewrite in terms of i and j component equations: • These represent two simultaneous transcendental equations in two unknowns: 3 and 4 • Must use non-linear (iterative) solver
iy R x Complex Arithmetic • Represent (planar) vectors as complex numbers • Write loop equations in terms of real and imaginary components and solve as before
3 4 2 O4 O2 B A Analytical Geometry • Examine each mechanism as a special case, and apply analytical geometry rules • For four-bar mechanisms, draw a diagonal to form two triangles • Apply cosine law as required to determine length of diagonal, and remaining angles
Limiting Positions for Linkages • What is the range of output motion for a crack-rocker mechanism?
