  • In this episode of Dirty Elbows Garage I'm breaking down the process of designing your own 4 bar mechanism. 4 bar mechanisms are used in hoods, trunks, doors, suspension, industrial equipment and more!

      If you liked this, I highly recommend reading "Kinematics and Dynamics of Machinery" by Norton, it shows graphical examples and solutions to 4 bar mechanisms with specified motions.

    Very nice video. You can also do a simpler approach: make a circle using the 3-point circle method through all three points A. Do the same with points B. The center of the circles is the chassis pivot.

    Thanks a lot! 👍

    What?! I’ve always been curious about the complexities of engineering similar mechanisms... I had no idea it could be this simple. Very succinct explanation and example. This video coupled with the 3D printer I got for Christmas, whew, I’ve got some stuff to make! Thanks!

      What is lacking with Mechanical Engineers today, is the knowledge of how to design mechanisms correctly. Did know that there's a mathematical formula that can be used for all mechanism designs? It's called Gruebler's Count. I found a way to make it practical for all 3D mechanisms. Here's the link if you are interested. czcams.com/video/KFB8gMjxDPk/video.html

    Thanks for the video. It helped me tremendously. I just wanted to add my alternative to your method. Instead of drawing lines between the points, then bisecting them with perpendicular lines, you can just draw at 3-point circle using A1, A2, A3 as the points. The center of the circle is the exact same place your intersecting lines meet. Do the same for the B points and bam, done.

    • @vitof.4626
      @vitof.4626 Před 2 lety +1

      @@vitof.4626 That's really fun to play with! I like that by just defining a start and end with the two circles connecting them, you can play more freely with the motion and easily try many cool motion paths. Thanks for the suggestion!

    • @DirtyElbowsGarage
      @DirtyElbowsGarage  Před 9 měsíci

      Thanks! As far as your hinge setup goes, the pulling actuator should work as long as the force and travel needs are met and the actuator doesn't run into anything. Also, you could look into a pushing setup if you move pivot joints outside of the pit sides (if I'm picturing it right).

    • @allyourcode
      @allyourcode Před 3 lety

      I figured out another solution. If your CAD software has 3 point arc or circle tool (I'm not familiar with Solid Works), you can find the location of each joint in bar 1 by drawing an arc (or circle) containing A1, A2, and A3 (and B1, B2, and B3). Perpendicular bisectors is probably what that tool uses "under the hood" to find the center of the circle. One nice thing about this method is that it does not clutter up your sketch as much (2 arcs instead of 6 lines). Another advantage is that it is self-explanatory why it works: bars 2 and 4 trace out the two guide arcs. Now, I can feel smart XD
