magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.I probably didn't express myself clearly, and I apologise for that. Everything will be managed by an external action. For example, I... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.I was thinking about a nested system of cylindrical cams. At least two driven by the same linear stroke of the rod. The outer one would... -

Like.
Not specifically. I was picturing a way to disengage the rod end from the spring collar by rotating a key shape to that it frees up... -

Like.
Yes, something like https://www.tanerxun.com/push-to-release-mechanism-design-plan.html I understand you think that won't exactly do... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.Yes, I thought about something like that too. But how would you rotate the key? With an external action? Or always with a mechanism... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.The rod can only translate linearly by a given number of millimeters. However, nothing prevents adding a collar that can rotate while... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.I think that kind of mechanism is a push/pull mechanism. To enable the free travel, I need to push in one direction to release it in the... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Storage mechanism with locking and unlocking.More specifically, the idea is to have a linear mechanical system that, during the forward stroke, activates mechanisms needed to... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.I'll try again. I'll try again. I hope it's more visible. -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.I will try to repost my solution with a higher resolution. Yes, the triangle AH, HB and BA is a rigid triangle. You can imagine it as... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.I just need to express the various distances in terms of lengths and angles. -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.Hello everyone, I've thought about it for a while and have come up with this solution. I would like to discuss it with you to see if... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.Yes, I have all the necessary data. I would like to be able to write the torque in node F as a function of the parameters in the... -
magicfrog replied to the thread Engineering Kinematic study of connected rods.I would like to add that the kinematics are placed on a horizontal plane, so the applied force (W) is orthogonal to gravity. I would...
