Chapter 1Introduction


Definitions

7

The subject Theory of Machines may be defined as that branch ofEngineering-science, which deals with the study of relative motionbetween the various parts of a machine, and forces which act onthem. The knowledge of this subject is very essential for anengineer in designing the various parts of a machine.

Kinematics: The study of motion without regard to forces

More particularly, kinematics is the study of position, displacement, rotation, speed, velocity, and acceleration.


Kinetics: The study of forces on systems in motion

A mechanism: is a device that transforms motion to some desirable patternand typically develops very low forces and transmits little power.

A machine: typically contains mechanisms that are designed to providesignificant forces and transmit significant power.


Application of Kinematics

9

Any machine or device that moves contains one or more kinematic elements suchAs linkages, … gears…. belts and chains.

Bicycle is a simple example of a kinematic system that contains a chain drive to provide Torque.


An Automobile contains many more examples of kin-systems…

the transmission is full of gears….



Chapter 2DEGREES OF FREEDOM (MOBILITY)


Degrees of Freedom (DOF) or Mobility

• DOF: Number of independent parameters (measurements) needed to uniquely define position of a system in space at any instant of time.

• A mechanical system’s mobility (M) can be classified according to the number of degrees of freedom (DOF).

• DOF is defined with respect to a selected frame of reference (ground).


Ø Rigid body in a plane has 3 DOF: x,y,zØ Rigid body in 3D-space has 6 DOF, 3 translations & 3

rotations àthree lengths (x, y, z), plus three angles (θ, φ, ρ).

Ø The pencil in these examples represents a rigid body, or link.


Types of Motion

• Pure rotation: the body possesses one point (center of rotation) that has no motion with respect to the “stationary” frame of reference. All other points move in circular arcs.

• Pure translation: all points on the body describe parallel (curvilinear or rectilinear) paths.

• Complex motion: a simultaneous combination of rotation and translation.

Slider-Crank Mechanism


Links, joints, and kinematic chains

Linkage design:§ Linkages are the basic building blocks of all mechanisms§ All common forms of mechanisms (cams, gears, belts, chains)

are in fact variations on a common theme of linkages.• Linkages are made up of links and joints.

• Links: rigid member having nodes• Node: attachment points


1. Binary link: 2 nodes2. Ternary link: 3 nodes3. Quaternary link: 4 nodes

Joint: connection between two or more links (at theirnodes) which allows motion;

(Joints also called kinematic pairs)


Joint Classification

Joints can be classified in several ways:1.By the type of contact between the elements, line, point, or surface.2.By the number of degrees of freedom allowed at the joint.3.By the type of physical closure of the joint: either force or form closed.4.By the number of links joined (order of the joint).

A more useful means to classify joints (pairs) is by the number of degrees of freedom that they allow between the two elements joined.


A joint with more than one freedom may also be a higher pair

• Type of contact: line, point, surface• Number of DOF: full joint=1DOF, half joint=2DOF• Form closed (closed by geometry) or Force closed

(needs an external force to keep it closed)• Joint order

Joint order = number of links-1


lower pair to describe joints with surface contact

The six lower pairs


The half joint is also called a roll-slide jointbecause it allows both rolling and sliding

Form closed (closed by geometry) or Force closed


ü A joint (also called kinematic pair) is a connection between two ormore links at their nodes, which may allow motion between the links.

ü A lower pair is a joint with surface contact; a higher pair is a joint withpoint or line contact.

ü A full joint has one degree of freedom; a half joint has two degreesof freedom. Full joints are lower pairs; half-joints are higher pairs andallow both rotation and translation (roll-slide).

ü A form-closed joint is one in which the links are kept together form byits geometry; a force-closed joint requires some external force tokeep the links together.

ü Joint order is the number of links joined minus one (e.g. 1st ordermeans two links).

Terminology of Joints


Kinematic chains, mechanisms,machines, link classification• Kinematic chain: links joined together for motion• Mechanism: grounded kinematic chain• Machine: mechanism designed to do work• Link classification:

§ Ground: any link or links that are fixed, nonmoving withrespect to the reference frame§ Crank: pivoted to ground, makes complete revolutions§ Rocker: pivoted to ground, has oscillatory motion§ Coupler: link has complex motion, not attached to ground


Elements:0: Ground (Casing, Frame)1: Rocker2: Coupler3: Crank

crank mechanism


§ When studying mechanisms it is very helpful to establish a fixed reference frame by assigning one of the links as “ground”.

§ The motion of all other links are described with respect to the ground link.

§ For example, a fourbar mechanism often looks like a 3-bar mechanism, where the first “bar” is simply the ground link.

Determining Degrees of Freedom


Determining Degrees of Freedom

Two unconnected links: 6 DOF(each link has 3 DOF)

When connected by a full joint: 4 DOF(each full joint eliminates 2 DOF)

Gruebler’s equation for planar mechanisms: DOF = 3L-2J-3GWhere:L: number of linksJ: number of full jointsG: number of grounded links


Determining DOF’s

• Gruebler’s equation for planar mechanisms

• WhereM = degree of freedom or mobilityL = number of linksJ = number of full joints (half joints count as 0.5)G = number of grounded links =1

( )3 1 2M L J= − −Kutzbach’s modification of Gruebler’s equation

M= 3L-2J-3G


The Cylindrical (cylindric) joint - two degrees of freedomIt permits both angular rotation and an independent sliding motion (C joint)


The Spherical (spheric) - Three degree of freedomIt permits rotational motion about all three axes, a ball-and-socket joint (S joint)

Gruebler’s Equation

Gruebler’s Equation

DOF = mobilityL = number of linksJ = number of revolute joints or

prismatic jointsG = number of grounded links

DOF (M) = 3*L – 2* J – 3 *G= 3 (L-1) – 2 * J

L = 2J = 1G = 1

DOF = 1

Gruebler’s equation can be used to determine the mobility of planar mechanisms.

Slider-Crank Mechanism

As designated in the figure, there are four links link 1, link 2, link 3 and link 4. Link 1 acts as a crank. Link 2 acts as connecting link, link 3 is the slider and link 4 is ground.

Mechanisms and Structures

§ If DOF > 0, the assembly of links is a mechanism and will exhibit relative motion

§ If DOF = 0, the assembly of links is a structure and no motion is possible.

§ If DOF < 0,then the assembly is a preloaded structure, no motion is possible, and in general stresses are present.


Paradoxes

• Greubler criterion does not include geometry, so it can give wrong prediction

• We must use inspection

E-quintetL=5J=6G=1M=3*5-2*6-3*1=0


Rolling cylinders even without slip (The joint between the two wheels can bepostulated to allow no slip, provided that sufficient friction is available) is anexample in which the ground link is exactly the same length as the sum of twoother links.If no slip occurs, then this is a one-freedom, or full, joint that allows only relative angular motion (Δθ) between the wheels.With that assumption, there are 3 links and 3 full joints,The equation predicts DOF = 0 (L=3,J1=3), but the mechanism has DOF = 1.

Others paradoxes exist, so the designermust not apply the equation blindly.


Chapter 3Linkage


History

• Leonardo da Vinci (1452, 1519), Codex Madrid I. • Industrial Revolution was the boom age of linkages: cloth

making, power conversion, speed regulation, mechanical computation, typewriting and machining


Linkages Today

§ In many applications linkages have been replaced by electronics.

§ Still linkages can have a cost advantage over electronic solutions: Couple different outputs by a mechanism rather than using one motor per output and electronics to achieve the coupling.

§ Current applications: Sports Equipment, Automotive (HVAC modules), Precision Machinery (Compliant Mechanisms), Medical Devices

Mechanical linkages are usually designed to transform a given input force and movement into a desired output force and movement.

Fourbar MechanismØTwobar has -1 degrees of freedom

(preloads structure)ØThreebar has 0 degrees of freedom

(structure)ØFourbar has 1 degree of freedom§ The fourbar linkage is the simplest

possible pin-jointed mechanism for single degree of freedom controlled motion

One link is grounded in each case


§ The fourbar linkage is the simplest possible pin-jointed mechanism for controlled motion with one degree of freedom.

§ Changing the relative lengths of the links can create a wide variety of motions.

The Grashof Condition§ Grashof condition predicts behavior of linkage based

only on length of links§ S=length of shortest link§ L=length of longest link§ P,Q=length of two remaining links

Ø If S+L ≤ P+Q the linkage is Grashof :at least one link is capable of making a complete revolutionØOtherwise the linkage is non-Grashof : no link is

capable of making a complete revolution


I. If S + L < P + Q (Class I), the linkage is Grashof and at least one link will be capable of making a full revolution with respect to ground.

II. If S + L > P + Q (Class II), the linkage is non-Grashof and no link will be capable of making a full revolution with respect to any other link.

III. If S + L = P + Q (Class III), the linkage is special-case Grashof and although at least one link will be capable of making a full revolution.

Grashof-Type Rotatability Criteria for Higher-Order Linkages

Rotatability is defined as the ability of at least one link in a kinematic chain to make a full revolution with respect to the other links and defines the chain as Class I, II or III.

Revolvability refers to a specific link in a chain and indicates that it is one of the links that can rotate.


Crank-Slider

The crank-slider (right) is a transformation of the fourbar crankrocker, by replacing the revolute joint at the rocker pivot by ajoint, maintaining the same one degree of freedom.


Cam Follower

§ A cam follower is a mechanism that appears to have only two moving links (apart from ground), but it has 1 DOF.

§ It has a fourbar equivalent if the coupler (Link 3) is viewed as a link of variable length.


Practical Considerations

Pin Joints versus Sliders and Half Joints

A. Pin JointØ Easy to lubricate ( with hydrodynamic lubrication)Ø Can use relatively inexpensive bearings

B. SliderØ Requires carefully machined straight slot or rodØ Custom made bearingsØ Lubrication is difficult to maintain

§ There are many factors that need to be considered to create good-quality designs.

§ The choice of joint type can have a significant effect on the ability to provide good, clean lubrication over the lifetime of the machine.

pin joint is the clear winner


Sleeve or journal bearing, the geometry of pin-in-hole traps a lubricant film within its annular interface by capillary action and promotes a condition called hydrodynamic lubrication in which the parts are separated by a thin film of lubricant .

Seals can easily be provided at the ends of the hole, wrapped around the pin, to prevent loss of the lubricant.


Relatively inexpensive ball and roller bearings are commercially available in a large variety of sizes for revolute joints.

Their rolling elements provide low-friction operation and good dimensional control.


For revolute joints pivoted to ground, several commercially available bearing types, Pillow blocks and flange-mount bearings.


MOTORS AND DRIVERS§ Unless manually operated, a mechanism will require some type of

driver device to provide the input motion and energy.

§ A motor is the logical choice to create the input.

§ Motors come in a wide variety of types. The most common energy source for a motor is electricity, but compressed air and pressurized hydraulic fluid are also used to power air and hydraulic motors.

Chapter 4Design of Linkage Systems


Engineering Design involves

1. Synthesis

2. Analysis

Design a mechanism to obtain a specified motion or force.


Mechanism Synthesis

•Type Synthesis given the required performance, what type of mechanism is suitable? Linkages, gears, cam and follower, belt and pulley and chain and sprocket.

•Number Synthesis How many links should the mechanism have? How many degrees of freedom are desired?

deals with determining the length of all links, gear diameter, cam profile.

•Dimensional Synthesis


QUALITATIVE SYNTHESIS

• The creation of potential solutions in the absence of awell-defined algorithm which configures or predicts thesolution and also judge its quality.

• Several tools and techniques exist to assist you in thisprocess. The traditional tool is the drafting board, onwhich you layout, to scale, multiple orthographic viewsof the design, and investigate its motions by drawingarcs, showing multiple positions, and usingtransparent, movable overlays.

• Commercially available programs such as SolidWorkand Working Model allow rapid analysis of a proposedmechanical design. The process then becomes one ofqualitative design by successive analysis which isreally an iteration between synthesis and analysis.


TYPE SYNTHESIS

• The definition of the proper type of mechanism bestsuited to the problem and is a form of qualitativesynthesis.

• This is perhaps the most difficult task for the student asit requires some experience and knowledge of thevarious types of mechanisms which exist and whichalso may be feasible from a performance andmanufacturing standpoint.

• An engineer can do, with one dollar, what any fool cando for ten dollars. Cost is always an importantconstraint in engineering design.


DIMENSIONAL SYNTHESIS

• The determination of the proportions (lengths) of thelinks necessary to accomplish the desired motions andcan be a form of quantitative synthesis if an algorithmis defined for the particular problem, but can also be aform of qualitative synthesis if there are more variablesthan equations.


MECHANISM SYNTHESIS: TWO APPROACHES

CAD program à SolidWorks


LIMITING CONDITIONS

• Once a potential solution is found, it must beevaluated for its quality. There are many criteria whichmay be applied. However, one does not want toexpend a great deal of time analyzing, in great detail,a design which can be shown to be inadequate bysome simple and quick evaluations.


TOGGLE: One important test consist in to check that the linkage can infact reach all of the specified design positions without encountering alimit or toggle position, also called a stationary configuration.

The toggle positions are determined by the colinearity of two of the moving links.


o TRANSMISSION ANGLE: The transmission angle μ isdefined as the angle between the output link and thecoupler.

o It is usually taken as the absolute value of the acute angle ofthe pair of angles at the intersection of the two links.


o It is a measure of the quality of force transmission atthe joint.

§ Radial component only increases friction at pivot O4.

§ Tangential (normal to Link 4) produces torque.– μ = 90o is optimal.– In design, keep μ > 40o

To promote smooth running and good force transmission.

Ideally, as close to 90° as possible
