Our goal of this session:
Nerd Warning!!!
our tool:
I love Motiongen a lot!
MotionGen is a planar mechanism design and simulation software part of SnappyXO Design suite of products developed by Stony Brook University and Mechanismic Inc. with the funding from the National Science Foundation via STTR Phase I and Phase 2 awards.
They also have their kits sold here: SnappyXO
My personal workflow will be motiongen -> cardboard -> fusion 360
the revolute, or hinged
the prismatic, or sliding
Create a four bar linkage! in MotionGen.
Four bar linkage is everywhere!
Four Bar Linkage Explain a video showing different four bar linkages
Why?
Grashof’s Law a video explaining a formula that would result in different behavior move of a four bar linkage
Four bar linakge is a RRRR
RRRRR
Add another driven R.
Look at the video and analyse the linkage system.. rebuild it in Motiongenpro.
My explaination video: Linkof a video linkage design workshop 2
design a linkage system. Then prototype it with cardboard.
The first planar linkage capable of transforming rotary motion into perfect straight-line motion
In Wikipedia there is Mathematical proof of concept

Why the beak of birds are curved and how birds could control the end of their beaks. they controlled it by moving their maxilla
Linkage can draw all the curves mathematically… 中文视频 sorry I didn’t find a better video in English
