Chebyshev lambda linkage

In kinematics, the Chebyshev Lambda Linkage is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate straight-line motion with approximate constant velocity. Chebyshev linkage and Chebyshev lambda linkage are linkages (mechanical) and straight line mechanisms.

Cognate linkage

Top row: four-bar cognate linkages. Chebyshev linkage and cognate linkage are linkages (mechanical).

Four-bar linkage

In the study of mechanisms, a four-bar linkage, also called a four-bar, is the simplest closed-chain movable linkage. Chebyshev linkage and four-bar linkage are linkages (mechanical).

James Watt

James Watt (30 January 1736 (19 January 1736 OS) – 25 August 1819) was a Scottish inventor, mechanical engineer, and chemist who improved on Thomas Newcomen's 1712 Newcomen steam engine with his Watt steam engine in 1776, which was fundamental to the changes brought by the Industrial Revolution in both his native Great Britain and the rest of the world.

Kinematics

Kinematics is a subfield of physics and mathematics, developed in classical mechanics, that describes the motion of points, bodies (objects), and systems of bodies (groups of objects) without considering the forces that cause them to move.

See Chebyshev linkage and Kinematics

Linear motion

Linear motion, also called rectilinear motion, is one-dimensional motion along a straight line, and can therefore be described mathematically using only one spatial dimension.

See Chebyshev linkage and Linear motion

Mechanism (engineering)

In engineering, a mechanism is a device that transforms input forces and movement into a desired set of output forces and movement.

Pafnuty Chebyshev

Pafnuty Lvovich Chebyshev (p) (–) was a Russian mathematician and considered to be the founding father of Russian mathematics.

Rotation

Rotation or rotational motion is the circular movement of an object around a central line, known as axis of rotation.

See Chebyshev linkage and Rotation

Steam engine

A steam engine is a heat engine that performs mechanical work using steam as its working fluid.

See Chebyshev linkage and Steam engine

Straight-line mechanism

A straight-line mechanism is a mechanism that converts any type of rotary or angular motion to perfect or near-perfect straight-line motion, or vice versa. Chebyshev linkage and straight-line mechanism are Linear motion, linkages (mechanical) and straight line mechanisms.

See Chebyshev linkage and Straight-line mechanism

Watt's linkage

A Watt's linkage is a type of mechanical linkage invented by James Watt in which the central moving point of the linkage is constrained to travel a nearly straight path. Chebyshev linkage and Watt's linkage are Linear motion, linkages (mechanical) and straight line mechanisms.
