Movement Identification and Realization about Planar Linkage Mechanisms

Abstract

In this paper, based on the planar four-bar linkage mechanisms as the research object as well as to carry out the kinematics analysis, a kinematics calculation mode of the planar four-bar linkage mechanism was established by the OOP method of Visual Basic. Based on the kinematics calculation mode, a movement identification system of planar four-bar linkage mechanisms was developed. This system cannot only realize the movement identification of random type of four-bar linkage mechanisms, but also can achieve the couple curve of the kinematics simulation of the planar four-bar linkage mechanisms. This provided a practical method of kinematics analysis of the planar four-bar linkage mechanisms.
