The four bar linkage is a type of mechanical linkage that is used in many different devices. A few examples are: locking pliers, bicycles, oil well pumps, loaders, internal combustion engines ...

Four-bar mechanisms are fundamental mechanical systems widely used in various applications, from industrial machinery to everyday devices. These mechanisms consist of four links connected in a ...

Consider the mechanism shown below made up of moveable links AB, BD and DE. Link AB is rotating CCW at a constant rate. Point C is the center of rotation for BD, where point C is at the intersection ...

We’ve actually secretly featured [rectorsquid]’s Linkage software before, in this writeup of some amazing cosplay animatronic wings that used the program for their design. But we really don ...

One significant area of research involves the design of gravity compensators using planar four-bar mechanisms combined with linear springs. This approach has led to the development of a variety of ...
