Structure of mechanism |
Function |
This mechanism with coulisseau and crank allows to transform a movement of rotation into alternative translatory movement . The engine puts in rotation the first connecting rod which through the second connecting rod puts in translation the coulisseau. The fact that both connecting rods have the same length allows the coulisseau to double its race. |
Comment |
Authors : François HARTMANN based on a model of I Artobolevski book. Modified by : Miguel PEREZ BORRAJO IFMA (French Institute for Advanced Mechanics) - http://www.ifma.fr Clermont-Ferrand, FRANCE This model is based on a mechanism described by Artobolevskij under number 1481. The mechanism is shown here. The model and all attached items were made within this context. |
