Kinematics Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics which describes the motion of points, bodies (objects) and systems of bodies (groups of objects) without consideration of the causes of motion.

JOINTS
1.Binary joint Here, Number of Links = 4 Number of Binary Joints = 4 If two links are connected at the same joint, it is called a Binary Joint
Checking whether it’s a kinematic chain
2.Ternary joint If three links are connected at the same joint, it is called a ternary joint. For the given Diagram, Apply Kline’s Criterion, Number of Joints , j = Number of binary joints + 2 ( Number of Ternary Joints ) = 3 + ( 2 x 2) = 7
3.Quaternary Joint Number of Joints , j = Number of binary joints + 2 ( Number of Ternary joints) + 3 ( Quaternary Joints)
DEGREES OF FREEDOM (DOF): It is the number of independent coordinates required to describe the position of a body.
DEGREE OF FREEDOM OR MOBILITY Degree of Freedom for plane Mechanism m (mobility): It is defined as the no of input motions, which must be independently controlled in order to bring mechanism into useful engineering purpose.

INVERSION MECHANISM Inversion of a kinematic linkage or mechanism is observing the motion of the members of the mechanism with fixing different links as reference frame. Each time when a different link is chose as the frame link the mechanism shows different characteristics of the motion. KEEPING ANY ONE OF THE LINK FIXED AND ROTATING OR OSCILLATING OTHER LINKS- THIS RESULTS DIFFERENT FORM OF MOTION OUTPUT FOR DIFFERENT USAGE

Toggle mechanism, UNIT - I
Toggle mechanism
toggle mechanisms The toggle mechanisms can be used in the situation when one needs to output large force subject to a short stroke, for example, the stone crushers and mechanical presses, etc. The shown mechanism has a toggle position when the two lower links arrange to be aligned. At this position, the slider can produce an extremely large power to press workpiece.

Arrangement The green link is 2 times greater than the length of blue link. This blue link is pinned as shown in fig with green link. One more requirement is that the slider's connection pin needs to be sliding in a line that would intersect the static pivot end of the short link.
Scott Russell straight line Mechanism The complexity of the mechanisms to generate exact straight lines can be reduced by introduction of one or more slider crank linkages. It is possible to generate an exact straight line using the slider crank mechanism but the range of motion is limited. Based on the geometry of the linkage the output motion is a simple sine function of the drive link or a simple harmonic motion. It is evident from the figure that this mechanism is made up of isosceles triangles, AB, AC and AO2 are of equal lengths.
Peaucellier Exact Straight Line Mechanism Peaucellier linkage can convert an input circular motion to the exact straight line motion. The construction of this mechanism is such that the point which is connected to the crank moves in a circular path and the point traversing the straight line is selected as the output point. The linkage has a rhombic loop formed of the equal length members, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Two equal length links are connected to the opposite corners of the rhombus at one end and to a common fixed point O 4 at the other ends. The point A of the rhombus is connect to fixed point O2 through the link 2. The length of the link 2 is equal to the distance between points O2 and O4. By the constraints of the geometry point A moves in a circular path and as the point A moves in a circle point P traverses an exact straight line path normal to the line joining O2 and O4.

MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE OF MECHANISM -------- a quality measure Due to more usage of 4 bar mechanism, its necessary to study some of the advantages of mechanisms. Which tell whether the mechanism is good one or not. It’s a quality measure of all mechanism
MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE It’s the ratio of output torque to the input torque M.A (ideal) = M.A (Actual) = T A = Driving link torque T B = Driven link Torque
