UNIT I INTRODUCTION 9
Review of fundamentals of kinematics-classifications of mechanisms-components of mechanisms
– mobility analysis – formation of one D.O.F. multi loop kinematic chains, Network formula – Gross
19
motion concepts-Basic kinematic structures of serial and parallel robot manipulators-Compliant
mechanisms-Equivalent mechanisms.
UNIT II KINEMATIC ANALYSIS 9
Position Analysis – Vector loop equations for four bar, slider crank, inverted slider crank, geared
five bar and six bar linkages. Analytical methods for velocity and acceleration Analysis– four bar
linkage jerk analysis. Plane complex mechanisms-auxiliary point method. Spatial RSSR
mechanism-Denavit-Hartenberg Parameters – Forward and inverse kinematics of robot
manipulators.
UNIT III PATH CURVATURE THEORY, COUPLER CURVE 9
Fixed and moving centrodes, inflection points and inflection circle. Euler Savary equation,graphical
constructions – cubic of stationary curvature. Four bar coupler curve-cusp-crunode-coupler driven
six-bar mechanisms-straight line mechanisms
UNIT IV SYNTHESIS OF FOUR BAR MECHANISMS 9
Type synthesis – Number synthesis – Associated Linkage Concept. Dimensional synthesis –
function generation, path generation, motion generation. Graphical methods- Pole techniqueinversion
technique-point position reduction-two, three and four position synthesis of four- bar
mechanisms. Analytical methods- Freudenstein’s Equation-Bloch’s Synthesis.
UNIT V SYNTHESIS OF COUPLER CURVE BASED MECHANISMS & CAM
MECHANISMS 9
Cognate Lingages-parallel motion Linkages. Design of six bar mechanisms-single dwell-double
dwell-double stroke. Geared five bar mechanism-multi-dwell. Cam Mechanisms- determination of
optimum size of cams. Mechanism defects. Study and use of Mechanism using Simulation Software
packages. Students should design and fabricate a mechanism model as term project.
