ME-222-02 (Simple Mechanism)

The document discusses different types of mechanisms and their inversions. There are three main types: four bar chains, single slider crank chains, and double slider crank chains. The four bar chain consists of four links forming turning pairs. Common inversions include beam engines and coupling rods. The single slider crank chain adds a sliding pair, converting rotary to reciprocating motion. Its inversions include pumps and engines. Finally, the double slider crank chain has two sliding pairs and two turning pairs, with inversions such as elliptical trammels and Scotch yoke mechanisms.

Inversion of the Mechanism

The method of obtaining different mechanisms by fixing different


links in a kinematic chain is known as inversion of the mechanism.

Types and Inversion of the Mechanisms:


Types of Mechanisms/ Kinematic Chain:
1. Four bar chain
2. Single slider crank chain
3. Double slider crank chain
Four bar chain or Quadric cycle chain

It consist of four links, each of them forms a turning pair with each
other.
• In four bar chain a link which makes complete revolution relative to other
three links is known as crank/driver.
• A link which makes partial rotation or oscillates is known as
Lever/follower/
• A link which connects crank & lever is known as connecting rod.
• A link which is fixed is known as frame.
Inversions of Four Bar Chain
1. Beam Engine (Crank & Lever Mechanism)
2. Coupling Rod of Locomotive (Double Lever Mechanism)
3. Pantograph (Double Lever Mechanism)
SINGLE SLIDER CRANK CHAIN

It is the modification of four bar chain.


It consist of one sliding pair & three turning pairs.
This type of mechanism converts rotary motion into reciprocating or viceversa.

In fig. link 1&2, 2&3, 3&4 forms turning pairs.


Link 1&4 forms sliding pair.
INVERSIONS OF SINGLE SLIDER CRANK CHAIN

1. Pendulum pump
2. Oscillating Cylinder Engine
3. Rotary Internal Combustion Engine (Gnome Engine)
4. With worth Quick Return Mechanism
5. Crank and Slotted Lever Mechanism
1. Pendulum pump
2. Oscillating Cylinder Engine
c) Rotary Internal Combustion Engine (Gnome Engine)
d) With worth Quick Return Mechanism
e) Crank and Slotted Lever Mechanism
DOUBLE SLIDER CRANK CHAIN

• The inversion of the double slider crank mechanism


consists of two sliding pair and two turning pairs.
INVERSIONS OF DOUBLE SLIDER CRANK CHAIN

a) Elliptical Trammel
b) Scotch Yoke Mechanism
c) Oldham’s Coupling
i) Assembly ii) Working
