Abstract

This paper presents a new method for the design of a slider-crank mechanism to satisfy specified behavior of the moving centrode. The method is based on the technique of curve matching using a series of design curves. The various families of centrode curves possible from the slider-crank mechanism are discussed. An example of the use of the curve matching method is presented.
