Abstract
Each four-bar linkage running as a crank and rocker mechanism has one unique coupler point producing a coupler curve with two cusps using this special coupler point, complex mechanisms can be designed having exact dwells. In this paper a four-bar linkage is used having the most favorable transmission behavior. Using simple equations, the mechanism and the coupler point location can be calculated. Using a rotating inverted slider output link, the designer can produce two rather long dwells through a full motion period.
