A
  1. Translating (prismatic) slider joint
  2. Rotating (revolute) pin joint

These are full joints and are lower pairs.

37
Q

A Revolute joint in a loop is replaced by a prismatic (slider) joint. If the loop contains two revolute joints after the replacement, what is the DoF shift?

A

0; a revolute joint can be replaced by a prismatic joint with no change to DoF provided that at least two revolute joints remain.

38
Q

A full joint is replaced by a half joint. What is he DoF shift?

A

+1; Increases by 1.

39
Q

If all revolute joints are replaced by prismatic joints, what will be the resulting DoF?

A

2

40

45
Q

For the following, name the type of fourbar linkage and the class:

G = 7
L2 = 4
L3 = 2
L4 = 6
A

Grashof, Class 1, Double Rocker inversion

46
Q

Choose the fourbar linkage (by educated guess) that has the largest minimum transmission angle. Also, which type of linkages are these?

1) G = 6 , L2 = 4 , L3 = 7 , L4 = 6;

2) G = 8 , L2 = 3 , L3 = 6 , L4 = 6

A

We choose 2 because it has the largest ground. It is a Class 1 Grashof Crank Rocker.

In general (rule of thumb): the fourbar with the largest ground link suggests that the minimum transmission angle is the largest of the compared linkages.

47
Q

When seeking the minimum transmission angle, which configurations are considered?

A

Overlapping and extended. L2 (crank) is collinear with L1 (ground).

48

When considering maximum Rocker motion, which configurations are considered? (4-bar)

A

When the Crank and coupler are collinear. Forward, and return.
