A single slider-crank chain is a modification of a basic four-bar chain. It consists of one sliding pair and the three turning pairs.
SINGLE SLIDER-CRANK CHAIN
• A single slider-crank
chain is a modification of a basic four-bar chain. It consists of one
sliding pair and the three turning pairs.
• The single slider-crank
chain is used to convert reciprocating motion into rotary motion and vice
versa.
• The most familiar form of
a slider-crank chain is that of the reciprocating steam engine mechanism, as
shown in Fig. 1.33.
• The four links of
the single slider-crank chain are:
1. Frame:
The fixed link is known as frame.
2. Crank:
A link that makes complete revolutions is called as crank.
3. Connecting rod:
The link opposite to the fixed link is known as connecting rod.
4. Slider:
A link that reciprocates is called as slider.
