3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define path generation in your own words.
Think about how the mechanism’s movement is directed.
What is a dyad?
Consider this a basic component before complex linkages.
What is the primary goal of path generation?
Remember P-M-F and what each type stands for.
True or False: Crank-rocker mechanisms allow a link to rotate fully.
Think back to the definitions we discussed.
Design a simple linkage mechanism that involves both two-position and three-position synthesis. Describe the steps and the intended motion.
Consider the end goals for the mechanism's movement.
Analyze a common mechanical device (e.g., a door closer). Explain how path generation principles are applied in its design.
Think about how the parts interact to follow a specific trajectory.
