THE STRUCTURE AND KINEMATIC OF A MECHANISM WITH THREE RPP TYPE DYADS

Abstract

Usually, a study regarding a mechanism starts from the kinematic diagram, firstly being analyzed the structure in order to see if the mechanism works. Here it was the other way around, from the chosen structural diagram in order for the last dyad to accumulate more complex moves from the former dyads. Relationships through the closed-loop method were written and a high diversity of connecting rod curves were resulted. By modifying some measures of the mechanism, other numerous connecting rod curves were made.
