Introduction to Mechanisms
Ken Youssefi UC Berkeley 2
Mechanism
Machines are mechanical devices used to accomplish work. A mechanism is a heart of a machine. It is the mechanical portion of the machine that has the function of transferring motion and forces from a power source to an output.
Mechanism is a system of rigid elements (linkages) arranged and connected to transmit motion in a predetermined fashion.
Mechanism consists of linkages and joints.

Slider-Crank Mechanism
In-line slider crank mechanism
The mechanism has a stroke B1B2 equal twice the crank length r2.
Locations B1 and B2 are called the extreme positions (limiting) of the slider

Mechanism CategoriesFunction Generation Mechanisms
A function generator is a linkage in which the relative motion between links connected to the ground is of interest.

Mechanism CategoriesMotion Generation Mechanisms
In motion generation, the entire motion of the coupler link is of interest (rigid body guidance).

Path Generation Mechanisms
In path generation, we are concerned only with the path of a tracer point and not with the motion (rotation) of the coupler link.

Type of Motion and Mechanisms
Translation to Translation
Most power sources that are readily available today are either of the pure rotational motion type, such as electric motor or hand crank, or of the pure translational type, such as pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder.
