TWO MARKS :Define 1)Kinematic Link 2)Kinematic pair 3)Kinematic chain 4)Klein s equation for joints 5)Degree of freedom of mechanism.6)Kutzbach s relation 7)Grashoff s law 8)Inversion of mechanism 9)Mechanical advantage of mechanism 10)Transmission angle? 1)Kinematic link It is a resistive body which go to make a part of a machine having relative motion between them. 2)Kinematic pair. When two links are in contact with each other it is known as a pair.If the pair makes constrain motion it is known as kinematic pair. 3)Kinematic chain. When a number of links connected in space make relative motion of any point on a link with respect to any other point on the other link follow a definite law it is known as kinematic chain. 4)Klein s equation for joints. Lower pair joint h-Higher pair joint l-Number of links j-

5)Degree of freedom. Of mechanism. It is defined as the minimum number of input parameters which must be independently controlled inorder to bring the mechanism into a useful engineering purpose. 6)Kutzbach s relation. j-Lower pair joint. n-Degree of freedom. l-Number of links. h-Higher pair joint

7)Grashoff s law. Sum of shortest link length and sum of longest link length is not greater than the sum of remaining link length. 8)Inversion of mechanism. The method of obtaining different mechanism by fixing different links in a kinematic chain is known as inversion of mechanism. 9)Mechanical advantage of mechanism. It is defined as the ratio of output torque to the input torque also defined as the ratio of load to effort. 10)Transmission angle. angle. The acute angle between follower and coupler is known as transmission

11)Toggle position. If the driver and coupler lie in the same straight line at this point mechanical advantage is maximum.Under this condition the mechanism is known as toggle position. 12)List out few types of rocking mechanism? Pendulam motion is called rocking mechanism. 1.Quick return motion mechanism. 2.Crank and rocker mechanism. 3.Cam and follower mechanism. 13)Define pantograph? enlarged scale. It is device which is used to reproduce a displacement exactly in a

14)Name the application of crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism? machines. 2.Siotting mechanism. 3.Rotary internal combustion engine.

1.Shamping

15)Define structure? It is an assemblage of a number of resistant bodies having no relative motion between themand meant for carrying loads having straining action. 16)What is simple mechanism? A mechanism with four link is known as simple mechanism.

17)Define mechanism? When one of the link of a kinematic chain is fixed,the chain is known as a mechanism. 18)Define equivalent mechanism? The mechanism, that obtained has the same number of the degree of freedom,as the original mechanism called equivalent mechanism. 19)Define single slider crank chain mechanism? A single slider crank chain is a modification of the basic four bar chain. It consist of one sliding pair and three turning pair. 20)Define double slider crank chain mechanism? A kinematic chain which consist of two turning pair and two sliding pair is known as double slider crank mechanism. 16 MARKS : 1) Explain (A)Classification of kinematic link? (B) 1)Indexing mechanism 2)Snap action mechanism 3)Motion adjustment mechanism 4)Scott Russel mechanism. (A)Classification of kinematic link (a)Classification based on relative motion between links. 1)Sliding pair.
