Abstract
Constrained motion can be attained for disk cam mechanisms by yoke cams with one or two distinct cams (cam and opposite cam). In general the cam and the opposite cam have different forms. In the present paper we ask for transmission functions with congruent cam and opposite cam. The mathematical formulation of this question leads to functional-equations; the solutions of these equations are special trigonometric functions and special linear functions. Besides well-known curves, such as curves of constant breadth (for yoke cams with translating flat follower) or trochoids(for yoke cams with oscillating roller follower), we get new curves like “curves with constant sum of distance of corresponding radii” and ”curves with constant sum of distance of corresponding tangents”.
