Scotch yoke mechanism movement equation

[QUOTE="jack action, post: 6648775, member: 240508"] Assuming the slider is at 0 in the left image, the slider will move from -R to +R (Total: 2R). The size R0 doesn't affect the stroke distance; it only needs to be large enough to carry the force (depends on the material strength). It's like selecting a bearing for a wheel or a connecting rod: The bearing size doesn't affect the kinematics of the wheel or the connecting rod, it just needs to be large enough to support the load. Changing the length X doesn't affect the stroke either. $$\Delta x = R\sin \theta$$ ##\Delta x##: Slider displacement ##\theta##: Crank angle (0° when slider is centered as in left image) [/QUOTE]
