Abstract
The motions of a bar structure consisting of two congruent tetrahedra are investigated, whose edges in their basic position are the face diagonals of a rectangular parallelepiped. The constraint of the motion is the following: the originally intersecting edges have to remain coplanar. All finite motions of our bar structure are determined. This generalizes our earlier work, where we did the same for the case when the rectangular parallelepiped was a cube. At the end of the paper we point out three further possibilities to generalize the question about the cube, and give for them examples of finite motions.
