Introduction

Objective of this project is to design and optimize a four bar mechanism for a vehicle to climb over obstacle of a given height.

Use different approaches to find

1. Shortest Link2. Reducing Peak Torque.3. Reducing The Fluctuation of the

torque.

Compact Design

How did we find the shortest linklengths?

Solving the vector equations Confining the four bar path to go

through three points We obtained 12 equations and 18

unknowns We were left with 6 free choices

Results:

Sum of Four-links = 0.8685m
