Study about Position of Arbitrary Point From a System Consisting of Two Pantograph Mechanisms of Super Elastic Hinges with Fixed Link


Abstract in English

In this paper we have a plan mechanical system consists of two pantograph mechanisms, with revolute and sliding joints, linked by fixed link . Then, we replace each revolute joint with super elastic hinge. In this way, we have a system, strongly recommended, to achieve the same goal using minimum of energy.
