Summary: | Mechanisms of machines completing a repeating operation have many applications in the processing industry. During the working cycle, the output link of the mechanism has one or more periods of dwell, while the input link moves continuously. The paper presents the graphical synthesis of 6-bar linkage mechanism with high class structure groups. The procedure is based on the synthesis at the extreme positions of the mechanism, simplifying the task to a problem with a finite number of precise positions. At the core of this procedure are simple, easily visible and understandable geometric constructions that are then used to form equations suitable for further analysis and optimization. Motion of the mechanism resulting from the synthesis has some inaccuracy - the output link moves during the dwell phase, completing an angle of ±0.5°, which is considered accurate enough for a wide range of practical applications. |
