seems like a crank and slotted lever mechanism, but it has one extra link and I can't figure out which point is the slotted link pivoted!
You can do dynamic simulation of kinematic chains in Inventor. I think I have simulation for crank and slotted lever mechanism(tell me if you need it).
For theory, I had a book Theory of Machines, shigley(I don't remember the full name) and I have Theory of Machines,Thomas Bevan. It has a nice qualitative and quantitative description for kinematic chains
