    4. For the kinematic linkages shown in Fig. Find the degrees of freedom.

    Solution :

    (1) 1 = 6; j = 7; h = 0

    Number of degree of freedom,

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    n = 3(6 1) 2 x 7 0 = 1

    Thus the motion is constrained.

    9/75

    (2) For Fig.(ii): l = 7; j = 8; h = 0

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    = 3(7 1) 2 x 8 = 2

    Thus the motion is constrained.

    (3) For Fig.(iii): l = 5; j = 6; h = 0

    n = 3 (l 1) 2j h

    = 3 (5 10 2 x 6 0 = 0

    Thus it is a structure. Ans.

    (4) For Fig.(iv): In this Fig (iv), the link 3 can slide without causing any movement in

    the rest of the mechanism. Thus this link is said to have redundant degree of freedom.

    L = 4; j = 4; h = 0; r = 1

    n = 3 (l 1) 2j h r

    =3 (4 1) 2 x 4 0 1 = 0

    Thus it is a structure.

    10/75

    Solution:

    = 3(7 1) 2 x 8 0 = 2 Ans

    (3) For Fig.(iii): l = 8;

    j = 10 [ 2 binary joints and 2 ternary joints, so j = 2 + 4 x 2 = 10]; h = 0

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    = 3(8 1) 2 x 10 0 = 1

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    11/75

    (4) For Fig.(iv): l = 7; j = 7; h = 1

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    = 3(7 1) 2 x 7 1 = 3 Ans.

    6. Examine the mechanism shown in fig and indicate the cases where unique

    relation between the motions of the input and output links exists.

    Solution:

    (i) For Fig.(i): l = 6; j = 7; h = 0

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    =3(6 1) 2 x 7 0 = 1

    Thus it is a constrained motion. This mechanism is driven by single input motion.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    12/75

    (2) For Fig.(ii): In the Fig.(ii), the link 3 can slide without causing any

    movement in the rest of the mechanism. Thus this link is said to have redundant degree

    of freedom.

    L = 4; j = 4; h = 0; r = 1

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h r

    =3(4 1) 2 x 4 0 1 = 0

    Thus it is a structure.

    (3) For Fig.(iii): l = 10; h = 0; h = 0; j = 12

    [because ten binary joints and one ternary joint, so 10 + (1 x 2) = 12]

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    =3(10 1) 2 x 12 0 = 3

    So it does not have unique relation between input and output link's motions.

    7. Prove that the mechanism shown in Fig. Below is a constrained kinematic chain.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    13/75

    Solution:

    From the Fig., l = 6; j = 7 and h = 0; p = 5

    Therefore Degree of freedom,

    n = 3(l 1) 2j h

    =3(6 1) 2 x 7 0 = 1

    Thus it is a single degree of freedom system.

    Two conditions to be satisfied are:

    l = 2p 4 .... (i)

    and j =2

    3

    l 2 ....(ii)

    where l = Number of links = 6

    p = Number of pairs = 5

    j = Number of joints = 7

    From equation (i), 6 = 2 x 5 4 = 6

    So equation (i) is satisfied.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    14/75

    From equation (ii) 7 =2

    3

    x 6 2 = 7

    L.H.S. = R.H.S.

    So equation (ii) is also satisfied.

    Hence, the given mechanism is a constrained kinematic chain. Ans.

    angle the slotted lever will make with the fixed link. Also determine the ration of time

    of cutting and return strokes.

    ASSIGNMENT UNIT 1

    1. Explain the four bar chain and its inversions stating its applications with neat

    sketches.

    Four bar chain:

    A four link mechanism or linkage is the most fundamental and the simplest kinematic

    chain. It consists of four turning pairs.

    Four links of a four bar chain are:

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    20/75

    1.Frame: The fixed link is known as frame.

    2.Crank (or) driver: A link that makes complete revolutions is called as crank.

    3.Coupler: The link opposite to the fixed link is known as coupler.

    4.Lever or Rocker or follower: The link which makes a partial rotation or

    oscillation is known as lever.

    Inversions of four bar chain:

    I. First Inversion (Crank and lever Mechanism):

    As shown in Fig (a), link 1 is the crank, link 4 is fixed and link 3 oscillates

    whereas in Fig. (b),lnk 2 is fixed and link 3 oscillates. The mechanism is also known as

    crank-rocker mechanism or a crank-lever mechanism or a rotary-oscillating converter.

    Application: Beam engine

    1. Beam Engine:

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    21/75

    This is an example of crank-lever mechanism, where one link oscillates, while the

    other rotates about the fixed link, as shown in Fig:

    This mechanism is used to convert rotary motion into reciprocating motion.

    In this mechanism, when the crank rotates about a fixed centre A, the lever

    oscillates about a fixed centre D. The end E of the lever CDE is connected to a piston

    rod which reciprocates due to rotation of the crank.

    II. Second inversion: (Double crank mechanism)

    If the shortest link, i.e., link 1 (crank) is fixed, the adjacent links 2 and 4 would

    make complete revolutions, as shown in Fig. The mechanism thus obtained is known

    as crank-crank or double crank mechanism or rotary-rotary converter.

    Application: Coupling rod of a locomotive.

    2. Coupling Rod of a Locomotive:

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    22/75

    This is an example of a double crank mechanism where both cranks rotate about

    the points in the fixed link. It consists of four links. The opposite links are equal in

    length, since links 1 and 3 work as two cranks, the mechanism is also known as rotary-rotary converter. Refer Fig.

    III. Third inversion:

    If the link opposite to shortest link is fixed. i.e., link 3 is fixed, then the shortest

    link (link 1) is made coupler and the other two links 2 and 4 would oscillate as shown inFig. The mechanism thus obtained is known as rocker:- rocker or double-rocker or

    double-lever mechanism or an oscillating-oscillating converter.

    Applications: 1.Watt's indicator mechanism

    2.Pantograph

    3.Ackermann steering

    3. Watt's Indicator Mechanism:

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    23/75

    This mechanism was invented by Watt for his steam engine to guide the piston

    rod. It is also known as simplex indicator. It consists of four links: fixed link at A, link

    BC and link DEF, connected to the piston of the indicator cylinder. Links BC and DEFwork as levers and due to this, the mechanism is also known as double lever

    mechanism. The displacement of the lever DEF is directly proportional to the steam or

    gas pressure in the indicator cylinder.

    In Fig. full lines depict the initial position of the mechanism, whereas the dotted

    line shows the position of the mechanism when gas or steam pressure acts on the

    indicator plunger.

    2. Sketch the single slider crank chain and its inversions. Explain any one of its

    applications.

    Single slider crank chain is a modification of four bar chain. It consists of one

    sliding pair and three turning pair. This is used to convert reciprocating motion to

    rotary motion and vice versa.

    Inversions of single slider crank chain

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    24/75

    (i) First inversion:

    First inversion is obtained when link 1 (i.e. Frank is frame is fixed and link 2 and

    4 are made the crank and slider respectively.

    (ii) Second inversion:

    Second inversion is obtained by fixing the link 2 (i.e. crank) of a slider crank

    chain. As shown in Fig., when the link 2 is fixed then the link 3 along with the slider at

    its end E becomes a crank. This makes link 1 to rotate about O along with the slider

    which also reciprocates on it.

    (iii)Third inversion:

    This is obtained by fixing the link 3 of the slider crank mechanism. Link2 acts as a crank

    and link 4 oscillates.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    25/75

    (iv) Fourth inversion:

    Fourth Inversion:

    Fourth inversion is obtained by fixing the link 4 of the slider crank mechanism.As shown in Fig. In the inversion, link 3 can oscillate about the fixed pivot B on link 4.

    This makes end A of link 2 to oscillate about B and end O to reciprocate along the axis

    of the fixed link 4.

    Application: Quick Return Mechanism:

    The two inversions of single slider crank chain which are used for the sameapplication (i.e. Quick return motion) are:

    (a) Whitworth quick return mechanism

    (b) Crank and slotted lever mechanism

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    26/75

    Kinematic difference:

    (i) In crank and slotted lever mechanism the output line oscillates.

    (ii) In whit worth mechanism the output link rotates.

    Description:

    (i) Whitworth quick return mechanism:

    It is a mechanism used in workshop i.e. In shaping and slotting machines. In this

    mechanism, link 2 (i.e. Crank) is fixed, link 3 rotates, link 4 reciprocates and link 1

    oscillates.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    27/75

    Initially, let the slider 4 be at B1point C2, then the tool will be in its extreme left position.

    When the crank further rotates and the slider 4 reaches to point C1, the tool will be in its

    extreme right position. The distance between extreme left and right positions is thestroke length.

    When the link AE rotates from the position AB2to AB2, then the ram moves from

    left to right and corresponding movement of the crank link will be from BC2to B C1.

    When the line AE further rotates, link AE move from AB2to AB1, then the ram moves

    from right to left and the crank BC correspondingly moves from BC2to BC1.

    When crank moves from BC2to BC1, it is the backward stroke. The time taken

    during the left to right motion of the ram will be equal to the time taken by the crank

    from BC1portion to BC2. The time taken during the right to left motion of the ram will

    be equal to the time taken by the crank from BC2position to BC1. When the tool is in its

    left extreme position, it is the return or backward stroke.

    (b) Crank and slotted Lever Quick return mechanism:-

    This mechanism is mostly used in shaping and slotting machines. This

    mechanism is also obtained by fixing the link 3, as shown in Fig. From the figure, OA is

    the driving crank, BP is the slotted lever, PT is the connecting rod and T is the cutting

    tool.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    28/75

    As the link OA revolves clockwise, the link BP oscillates between the two extreme

    positions BP1and BP2. In the extreme pistons, BP1and BP2are tangential to the circle

    with A as center and AO radius. Hence the two strokes of the tool are made while the

    crank makes over the arcs FGE and EHF respectively. The cutting stroke occurs when

    the crank moves over the arc FGE.

    3. Sketch the double slider crank chain and its inversions. Explain the working of old

    ham's coupling.

    DOUBLE SLIDER CRANK CHAIN

    As its name implies, in double slider crank chain, there are two sliders and one

    crank. It is also a four bar pneumatic chain consists of two sliding pairs and two turning

    pairs as shown in Fig. The link 1 and link 2 form one sliding pair and link 4 and link 1

    from the second sliding pair. The link 2 and link 3 form one turning pair and link 3 and

    link 4 form second turning pair.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    30/75

    Inversions:

    (i) First inversion:

    First inversion is obtained by fixing the link 1. In this, the two adjacent pairs 2 3

    and 3 4 are turning pairs and the other two pairs 1 2 and 1 4 are sliding pairs.

    Refer Fig (a) Application: Elliptical trammel

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    31/75

    (ii) Second inversion:

    Second inversion is obtained by fixing any one of the slider blocks of the first

    inversion. When link 4 is fixed end B of crank 3 rotates about A and link 1 reciprocates

    in the horizontal direction.

    Application: Scotch yoke mechanism

    (iii) Third inversion;

    Third inversion is obtained by fixing the link 3 of the first inversion. In this inversion

    link 1 is free to move.

    Application: Oldham's coupling.

    Oldham's Coupling:

    This mechanism is used for transmitting motion between two shafts which are

    parallel but not coaxial. This inversion is obtained by fixing the link 3 as shown in Fig.

    It consists of a driving shaft, fitted with a flange(link 2) having a diametrical slot on its

    face; a driven shaft fitted with flange C (link 4) also has diametrical slot on its face. This

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    32/75

    whole makes link 4. The slots on the two flanges are at right to each other. An

    intermediate piece circular shape and having tongues X and Y at right angles on

    opposite sides, is fitted in between the flanges of the two shafts in such a way that the

    tongues of the intermediate piece get fitted closely in the slots of flanges. The

    intermediate circular piece E forms link 1 which slides between the flanges C and D.

    When driving shaft rotates through certain angle the driven shaft also rotates through

    the same angle. Motion is transmitted through intermediate link1. If the distance

    between the axis of the shafts is x, it will be the diameter of a circle traced by the center

    of intermediate piece.

    4.Differentiate Kinematic pair and Kinematic chain.

    Kinematic pair Kinematic chain

    1. A pair is a joint of two links or

    elements of a machine.

    Ex: 1.Crank and connecting road.

    1. When the Kinematic pairs are coupled in such a

    way that the last link is joined to the first link to

    transmit definite motion, it is called a Kinematic

    chain.

    33/75

    Kinematic pair Kinematic chain

    2.Piston and cylinder. Ex: 1. Four bar chain.

    2. Double slider crank chain.

    5. Structure

    An assembly of resistant bodies, known as members having no relative motion

    between them and meant for carrying loads is called structure.

    6. Compare Machine and Structure:

    Machine Structure

    1. The different parts of a machine has

    relative motion.

    2. It transforms energy into useful work.

    3. Links are used to transmit motion.

    4. Example: Shaping m/c

    1. There is no relative motion between the

    members.

    2. It does not convert the energy into work.

    3. Members are used for carrying loads.

    4. Example: bridges, roof trusses m/c frames.

    7. Mechanical advantage of a mechanism.

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    34/75

    It is defined as the ratio of output torque to the input torque. It is also defined as

    the ration of load to the effort.

    8. Differents in Kinematic chain and Mechanism.

    Kinematic chain Mechanism

    1. It is a combination of Kinematic

    pairs.

    2. Types:

    a) Four bar chain,

    b) Slider crank chain

    1. If any one of the link in the Kinematic chain is

    fixed then the Kinematic chain is called amechanism.

    2. Types:

    a) Simple mechanism

    b)Compound mechanism.

    9. Transmission angle?

    In a four bar chain mechanism, the angle between the coupler and the follower

    link is called as the transmission angle.

    10. Diffrents in mechanism and machine:

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    35/75

    Mechanism Machine

    1. Mechanism transmits and modifies

    motion.

    2. It is the outline of the m/c to

    produce definite motion between

    various links.

    1.M/C transmits forces and couples.

    2. Machine may have many mechanisms for

    transmitting power or work.

    11. The Grashof's law for a four bar mechanism.

    Grashof's law states that the sum of the shortest and longest links cannot be

    greater than the sum of the remaining two link lengths, if there is to be continuous

    relative motion between the two members.

    The significance of Grashof's law:

    (i) Grashof's law specifies the order in which the links are connected in a Kinematic

    chain.

    (ii) It specifies, which link of the four bar chain is fixed.

    (iii) A four bar chain should satisfy Grashaf's law, otherwise no link will make a

    complete revolution relative to one another.

    i.e. ( S + l) * (P + Q)

    where

    S = length of the shortest link

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    36/75

    L = Length of the longest link

    P & Q = Length of the other two links.

    12. Differentiate between Movability and Mobility

    (i) Movability includes six degrees of freedom of the devices as a whole, as if the

    ground link were not fixed and thus applies to a Kinematic chain.

    (ii) Mobility neglects these and considers only the internal relative motions, thus

    applying to a mechanism.

    13. Classify the 'Constrained motion', and example for each.

    1.Completely constrained motion [Ex: Square bar moving in square

    hole]

    2.Incompletely constrained motion [Ex:circular shaft in a hole]

    3.Successfully constrained motion [Ex: Motion of IC engine value]

    14. Explain the The Grubler's criterion for plane mechanisms.

    n = 3(l 1) 2j

    for single degree of freedom joints => 3l 2j = 4

  • 8/9/2019 Kom Tutorials & Assignments Unit 1 & 2

    37/75

    where:

    l = No of links

    j = No of binary joints.

    15. In a four bar chain, which link is called crank.

    In a four bar chain, the smallest link, which makes complete revolution is called

    crank.
