  1. The Crank and Slider Mechanism

    A Crank and Slider mechanism / linkage, takes rotary motion and coverts it to linear motion. The diagram (below), shows how a piston pushes and pulls the connecting rod, which rotates the crank. This is typical of steam engines.

  2. slider-crank mechanism - Encyclopedia Britannica

    Jul 20, 1998 · Slider-crank mechanism, arrangement of mechanical parts designed to convert straight-line motion to rotary motion, as in a reciprocating piston engine, or to convert rotary motion to straight-line motion, as in a …

  3. Crank mechanism kinematics - classic analysis

    The diagram below shows the essential parts of a slider and crank mechanism. The slider, for example, can be a piston in a cylinder or a linear drive element in a machine. Thus the primary input is either a force applied to the slider or a …

  4. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

    The graphical method of designing an in-line slider-crank mechanism involves the usage of hand-drawn or computerized diagrams. These diagrams are drawn to scale in order for easy evaluation and successful design.

  5. Crank mechanism kinematics - velocity and …

    Acceleration diagram for the slider and crank mechanism. The acceleration diagram for the example mechanism has the components listed as below. Lines of action of these accelerations are shown in the following diagram.
