Linkage Kinematics: uses and methods
calculates the trajectory, speed and assembly range of four-rod and additional two-link branches.
Applicable scope and calculation boundary
ideal rigid plane hinge; the six-rod mode is a fixed-fulcrum two-link branch chain driven by four-rod coupling points. Non-dynamic/collision solver.
model and reference method
Circle-circle intersection closed-loop constraint; angle continuous branch tracking.
model version: 1.0.0. The results are used for scientific research, exploration and teaching, please interpret according to the model conditions.
