Synthesis and Solution Region Optimization Method of a Straight-line Mechanism with Instant Center at Infinity
A set of mechanism synthesis universal model is presented in this Mini Fridge study.Given the expected straight-line and a fixed pivot, this model can solve the synthesis problem of the straight-line guide mechanism when the instant center tends to infinity in the coupler plane.In addition, mechanism synthesis formulas are derived and an example of
