Abstract
Dwell function generators are broadly applicable to several kinds of automatic machines because they do not need any special control equipment for positioning, and therefore have wider usage. In the present paper, Stephenson type 6-link crank-and-rocker mechanisms are studied. The conditions under which the output arms dwell at the edge points of rocking are analytically developed, and relationships between the dwell periods and mechanism parameters are clarified mνmerically by simulations. Such relationships are approximated by polynomials in the order of less than five, and using the dwell periods as design data, an automatic optimum synthesis of 6-link dwell mechanisms is carried out.
