Slider-crank linkage
text:
A slider-crank linkage is a four-link mechanism with three revolute joints and one prismatic (sliding) joint. The rotation of the crank drives the linear movement of the slider, or the expansion of gases against a sliding piston in a cylinder can drive the rotation of the crank. There are two types of slider-cranks: in-line and offset.
- In-line: An in-line slider-crank has its slider positioned so the line of travel of the hinged joint of the slider passes through the base joint of the crank.
