A mechanical system of connected parts that changes the direction or size of a force.
Linkages are essential components in mechanical systems, used to:
Change the direction of movement
Alter the magnitude of a force
Control the motion of system parts
Types of Linkages
Parallel Linkages
Reverse Linkages
Bell Crank Linkages
Parallel Linkages
Definition
Parallel Linkage
A mechanism where a central point is constrained to move in a nearly straight line by the arrangement of linked bars.
Maintains Orientation: Keeps the connected parts parallel throughout the motion.
Even Force Distribution: Distributes force evenly across the linkage.
Parallel Linkage (BBC)Example
Suspension Systems: Used in vehicles to keep wheels aligned with the road.
Drawing Boards: Ensures the drawing surface remains level.

Introduction to Linkage
A linkage is a mechanical system of connected parts that changes the direction or size of a force. Linkages are essential components in mechanical systems, used to:
Change the direction of movement
Alter the magnitude of a force
Control the motion of system parts
DefinitionLinkageA mechanical system of connected parts that changes the direction or size of a force.
AnalogyThink of linkages like the joints in your body - they help you move in specific ways and control the direction and strength of your movements.
