Abstract
In this paper, a simple method of displacement analysis of Stephenson six-link mechanisms of three kinds which have two closed five-link loops including the fixed and driving links is developed in the form of a solution of a sixth order equation. Moreover, their composition loops to arise from inversions of link chains for a set of kinematic constants are discriminated by means of the domains on the angular displacement curve of the component four-link chain; the domains are separated by the points which correspond to the limits of rotation of the driving link of the six -link mechanism and the positions of the longest or shortest distance between the end pairing points of the component two-link chain and are distinguished by the sign of the sine of the relative displacement angle of the latter.
