MER 312: Dynamics and Kinematics /AT

Assignment # 3

Problem 1:

Design a Grashof four-bar, crank-rocker, quick-return mechanism with the


following requirements:

The mechanism must have:


1) a time ratio of 1.35.
2) an output rocker angle of 50°.
while maintaining a transmission angle between 40° and 140°, and,
3) must fit and operate within a design space of 7.5 x 10 inches.
(Use a letter size printing/construction paper create a half inch border all around as
showed)
Paper

Design space

Tasks:

1) Follow the steps as in the lecture 05 handout.


2) Submit a drawing of your linkage at one of the extreme positions.
3) Submit you linkage specifications as showed in step 12.
4) Include in your specification the actual minimum and maximum transmission angle of
your designed linkage.

Note: Please recognize that your text calls the transmission angle Φ.
μ is the label used by the majority of books on mechanisms.
