Ky. Kim et Bm. Kwak, A MODIFIED SELECTIVE PRECISION SYNTHESIS TECHNIQUE FOR PLANAR 4-BAR RIGID-BODY GUIDANCE, Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part C, Journal of mechanical engineering science, 209(1), 1995, pp. 39-47
The selective precision synthesis (SPS) technique is modified by adopt
ing the displacement matrix approach and using binary links as basic e
lements. This modified SPS (MSPS) can thus be applied to the synthesis
of slider-crank mechanisms as well. With the introduction of 'maximum
allowable angular deviation', the mechanism construction error (MCE)
at a design point can be eliminated. The link length adjustment is als
o found to be a useful tool for the case of infinite MCE. The proposed
MSPS is shown to be logical and effective by a practical design examp
le.
