Mechanisms of Machinery: Assignment -2 and submission date: 16/8/2015 E.

Position Analysis
1. For the mechanism shown below:
a. Position all the links, as link 2 is rotated 600 clockwise and analytically determine
the displacement of link 4.
b.Analytically position the inks into the configuration that places link 4 in its limiting
position. Determine the maximum displacement (stroke) of link 4.

2. A crank – rocker linkage has a 100 mm frame, a 25 mm crank, a 90 mm coupler, and a 75


mm rocker. Draw the linkage and find the maximum and minimum values of the
transmission angle. Locate both toggle positions and compute the corresponding crank
angles and transmission angles.
Ans. (γmin = 53.130, γmax = 98.10; at θ = 400, γ = 59.10; at θ = 228.60, γ = 89.10).

3. The offset slider – crank mechanism shown below is driven by rotating crank 2. Using any
appropriate method write an equation for the position of the slider 4 as a function of θ2 or
cos θ2. Take L1 = 1.0 cm, L2 = 2.5 cm, L3 = 7.0 cm. Ans. [L4 =
2.50 cos θ2 + (36.75 + 6.25 cos2 θ2)1/2 cm].

4. The figure below shows a non-Grashof fourbar linkage that is driven from link O2A. All
dimensions are in centimeters (cm).
a) Find the transmission angle at the position shown.
b) Find the toggle positions in terms of angle AO2O4.
a) Find the maximum and minimum transmission angles over its range of
motion by graphical techniques.

5. The figure below shows a fourbar linkage used in a power loom to drive a comb-like reed
against the thread, “beating it up” into the cloth. Determine its Grashof condition and its
minimum and maximum transmission angles to graphical accuracy.
