Abstract
An index of motion-transmission characteristics τ of the spatial four-link mechanism, which has two stationary turning pairs and two moving spheric pairs, is presented through investigations of the sensitivities of the angular displacements of the links to the deviations of the kinematics constants and the forces acting at the pairs to the external forces on the links. Generally speaking, the average of the sensitivities S and the average of the forces acting at the pairs F decrease rapidly in the interval [0, 0.3] and slowly in [0.3, 1] as τ increases. The τ-S and τ-F relations are approximated by the regions bounded by two rectangular hyperbolas. Consequently, it is possible to estimate the values of S and F of any mechanism at the given crank angle by means of τ.
