Practical Problems Mechanics of Machines ME 331 (Spring 2021)

The mechanism, as shown in Figure 2, is used to displace the objects in a


straight line through link 6. The power is transmitted from link 2 to 6. For the
angular velocity 20 rad/sec (CCW) and angular acceleration 60 rad/sec2 (CW)
of link 2, calculate analytically an acceleration of link 6. The angular rotation
of link 2 is 110 degrees from vertical y-axis anticlockwise. Consider other
lengths as: link 2 = 30 mm, link 3 = 50 mm, link 4 = 80 mm, and link 5 = 90 mm.
Point C is at one-third of the length of link 4 from Bo. The other dimensions are
given in Figure 2.

Q3: The given mechanism is the combination of four bar and crank-slider mechanisms.
Therefore, it can be split into two mechanisms and do the analysis. The solution of the
problem consists of following steps:

Step 1: Required parameter for crank-slider mechanism


The acceleration of slider (link 6) can be calculated through Eq.(1) as:

·· 2 2
d = − aα22sinθ22 − aω22 cosθ22 + bα32 sinθ32 + bω32 cosθ32 ——(1)

Here, α22 , θ22 , and ω22 are the angular acceleration, angular displacement, and angular
velocity of link 4, respectively. Note that the first subscript states the type of link, while
second shows the mechanism number (1 for four bar and 2 for crank-slider). Similarly,
α32, θ32, and ω32 are the angular acceleration, angular displacement, and angular velocity
of link 5, respectively. The angular acceleration of link 5 can be estimated by Eq.(2) as:

2 2
aα22cosθ22 − aω22 sinθ22 + bω32 sinθ32
α32 = ——(2)

b cosθ32

Step 2: Position, velocity, and acceleration analyses of four bar mechanism


Position analysis:

a = 30 mm, b = 50 mm, c = 80 mm, d = 35 mm, θ21 = 110 degrees

K1 = 1.1666, K2, 0.4375, K3 = 1.255, A = -0.1039, B = -1.879, C = 2.913

K4 = 0.7, K5 = 0.5916, D = -0.677, E = -1.879, F = 1.86

2 2 2
F = aα21cosθ21 − aω21 sinθ21 − bω31 sinθ31 + cω41 sinθ41 = 4671.005

D = c cosθ41 = − 79.58, E = b cosθ31 = − 42.645

Step 3: Similarities between the two mechanisms are:


θ41 = θ22 = − 174.13 degrees, ω41 = ω22 = 17.01 rad/sec,

α41 = α22 = − 325.08 rad/sec^2

Step 4: Position, velocity, and acceleration analyses of crank-slider mechanism


Position analysis to calculate θ32

For the crank-slider mechanism: a = length of link 4 from B0 to C = (1/3)(80) = 26.66 mm,
b = length of link 5 = 90 mm, c = 20 mm

a sinθ22 − c
