Spatial Kinematic Analysis of Double 4-Link Coupler Used in Low-Floor Tram Powertrains

The paper presents kinematic characteristics of the double 4-link coupler system, used in actual powertrain of low-floor trams (NGT6-Kr). The spatial kinematic model of the couplings was formulated assuming ideal joints and rigid members. The constraints equations of the mechanism were solved iterat...
