Theory of adaptive mechanical drive

Abstract

A kinematic chain with two degrees of freedom and one input can have definability of motion only if there is an additional constraint of forces and velocities. Such a chain is a mechanism that has the brand new property of force adaptation. The article presents a kinematic and force analysis of two-mobile adaptive mechanisms and describes the principle of definability of motion.
