Movie: NTUT-J02 Linkage Coupling


This coupling is an application of the parallel-crank mechanisms. It consists of three identical parallel-crank mechanisms which share the same cranks. The input and output shafts are connected to the two cranks, respectively. The transmission between the two shafts can therefore be completed through the three parallel linkages. This coupling is used for the transmission between two parallel but not colinear shafts. And, this transmission will be exact, without speed reduction.
