SYNTHESIS OF LINKAGES
Synthesis of mechanism is the design or creation of a mechanism to produce a desired output
motion for a given input motion.

the link AB i.e. a, b, c, d & Ө is known.

CLASSIFICATION OF SYTHESIS PROBLEM:
1. FUNCTION GENERATION: The motion of the output & input links may be prescribed by an
arbitrary function i.e. y = f (x).
2. PATH GENERATION: When a point on the coupler or the floating link of a mechanism is to be
guided along a prescribed path.
3. MOTION GENERATION (BODY GUIDANCE): A mechanism is designed to guide a rigid body
in a prescribed path.
POLE: Simple rotation of body about a point known as the pole. If it I desired to guide a body or link in
a mechanism from one position to another. A pole of a moving link is the centre of its rotation w.r.t. a
fixed link.
1) Draw AB1 and DC1 arbitrary.
2) Rotate AB1 with an angle Ө12 mark AB2
3) Similarly mark DC2
4) Join B1B2 & C1C2 and draw angular bisectors B12
& C12
5) B12 & C12 are intersect at a point pole i.e. P12
RELATIVE POLE: If the rotation of the link is considered relative to another moving link, the pole is
known as relative pole.
For four bar mechanism:
1) Draw AB fixed link and AD1 and BC1 arbitrary.
1) 2)Rotate AD1 by A as center and angle Ө12 mark
AD2
2) 3)Similarly Mark BC2
3) 4)Join B1B2 & C1C2 and Draw angular bisectors B12
& C12
4) 5)B12 & C12 are intersect at a point relative
pole i.e. R12
For Slider crank mechanism:
1) Draw two parallel lines l1 and l2 at a distance e apart.
2) Mark a point A arbitrary and mark E at a distance
S/2 from A.
3) Draw perpendicular lines to l1 at A & E i.e P1 &P2.
4) Draw a line by rotating P1 by A as center and angle
Ө12 /2
5) The intersection of
this line with P2 locates the relative pole R12
