Abstract
A Mechanical Integrator is a mechanical device which can be used to obtain the continual integration of the input variable value. This paper explains the operational principles and discloses the simulation and motion study results of the mechanical integrator 3D model assembly. Specifically, 3D models of the input function generator, the ball and disc integrator and the output x-y plotter are created and their operations are simulated. This work is significant mainly for education in the fields of solid modelling, mechanism synthesis and scientific visualization of the mechanism motion and operation. In particular, the motion analysis presented in this paper visualizes and discloses the mutual relationship between the integration calculus as the mathematical operation and the geometrical and kinematical characteristics of one special type of mechanical computing device.
