Difference Between a Machine and a Structure
•
•
The parts of a machine move relative to one another, whereas the members of a
structure do not move relative to one another
• A machine transforms the available energy into some useful work, whereas in a
structure no energy is transformed into useful work
The links of a machine may transmit both power and motion, while the members
of a structure transmit forces only (load bearing member).
Kinematic Pair
Completely constrained
Successfully constrained
The two links or elements of a machine, when in contact with each other, are said to
form a pair, If the relative motion between them is completely or successfully
constrained (i.e. in a definite direction)
Group 1 INTRODUCTION TO KINEMATICS of BSME
Example:
Constrained Motions
1. Completely constrained motion
The motion of a square bar in a square hole
The motion of a shaft with collars at each end in a circular hole
When the motion between a pair is limited to a definite direction irrespective
of the direction of force applied, then the motion is said to be a completely
constrained motion.


2. Incompletely constrained motion
When the motion between a pair can take place in more than one direction, then
it can be an incompletely constrained motion.
E.g.: A circular bar or shaft in a circular hole
It may either rotate or slide in a hole. These both motions have no relationship
with the other (automobile wheel).
3. Successfully constrained motion
When the motion between the elements, forming a pair,
Ex. Shaft in a foot-step bearing, I C engine valve, Piston inside an cylinder.

Examples: Lathe spindle supported in headstock.
When the two elements of a pair are connected in such a way that one can only
turn or revolve about a fixed axis of another link.

3. Spherical pair (S)
When the two elements of a pair are connected in such a way that one element turns
or swivels about the other fixed element.
Eg: The ball and socket joint.

Kinematic Chain
When the kinematic pairs are coupled in such a way that the last link is joined to the
first link to transmit definite motion (i.e. completely or successfully constrained
motion), it is called a kinematic chain.

Degrees of Freedom (DOF) / Mobility of a Mechanism
Number of independent coordinates, required to describe / specify the configuration
or position of all the links of the mechanism, with respect to the fixed link at any

may loose some of the six degrees of freedom.

  • 50. 1) reciprocates. When the crank (link 2) is given a rotary motion, the connecting rod (link 3) oscillates about a pin pivoted to the fixed link 4 at attached to the piston rod (link A. The piston Pendulum Pump or Bull Engine
  • 51. Link 3 forming the turning pair is fixed and it corresponds to the connecting rod of a reciprocating steam engine mechanism. When the crank (link 2) rotates, the piston attached to piston rod (link 1) reciprocates and the cylinder (link 4) oscillates about a pin pivoted to the fixed link at A A
  • 53. It consists of seven cylinders in one plane all revolve about fixed centre D. Cylinders form link 1, Crank (link 2) is fixed. When the connecting rod (link4) rotates, the piston (link 3) reciprocates inside the cylinder.
  • 55. the line of stroke R1R2 A mechanism used in shaping and slotting machines, where the metal is cut intermittently. • LinkAC(i.e.link3)isfixed. • Crank CB revolves with uniform angular speed about the fixed center C. • Sliding block attached to the crank pin at B slides along the slotted bar AP, thus causing AP to oscillate about the pivoted point A. • Short link PR transmits the motion from AP to the ram which carries the tool and reciprocates along
  • 56. • in the clockwise direction. The forward or cutting stroke occurs when the • crank rotates from the position CB1 to CB2 (or through an angle β) in the clockwise direction. The return stroke occurs when the crank rotates from the position CB2 to CB1 (or through angle α)
  • 59. • • • This inversion is obtained by fixing the slotted plate (link 4). fixed plate or link 4 has two straight grooves cut in it, at right angles to each other. link 1 and link 3, are known as sliders and form sliding pairs with link 4. • When the links 1 and 3 slide along their respective grooves, any point on the link 2 such as P traces out an ellipse on the surface of link 4 • link AB (link 2) is a bar which forms turning pair with links 1 and 3.
  • 60. Show that AP and BP are the semi-major axis and semi-minor axis of the ellipse. OXand OY as horizontal and vertical axes Now the co-ordinates of the point P on the link BA will be let the link BA is inclined at an angle θwith the horizontal, This is the equation of an ellipse
