Optimal Design of Four-bar Mechanism in consideration of Tolerances and Clearances

A four-bar mechanism in consideration of the tolerances on link lengths and the clearances in joints is optimally designed by the method of stochastic analysis. The random nature of clearances and tolerances establishes a stochastic optimization design equation in which the parameters in the equation are described by random variables. In order to solve the design equation, the stochastic problem is converted into an equivalent deterministic one. The synthesis of four-bar mechanism for minimum mechanical and structural errors is carried out by the optimization techni- ques using Chebyshev spacing of precision points. By the results from the synthesized mechanism, the generated and desired motions are examined.
