1. CLASIFICATION OF MECHANISMS
• TRANSMITTING MOTION MECHANISMS
→ LINEAR TRANSMISSION:
- LEVER = Palanca
- FIXED PULLEY = Polea fija
- MOBILE PULLEY = Polea móvil
- COMPOUND PULLEY = Polipasto
→ ROTARY TRANSMISSION:
- FRICTION WHEELS = Ruedas de fricción
- PULLEYS WITH BELT = Poleas con correa
- GEAR MECHANISMS AND COGWHEELS =
Mecanismos con engranajes y Ruedas dentadas
- WORM GEAR = Tornillo sin fin
- GEAR MECHANISMS WITH A CHAIN = Engranajes con cadena
- PULLEY TRAINS WITH BELTS = Tren de poleas con correas
- GEAR TRAIN = Tren de engranajes
• TRANSFORMING MOTION MECHANISMS
→ ROTARY MOTION INTO LINEAR MOTION:
- RACK AND PINION = Piñón-Cremallera
- NUT AND BOLT = Tuerca y tornillo
→ ROTARY MOTION INTO RECIPROCATING MOTION:
- CRANK-LINK-SLIDER = Biela-manivela
- CRANKSHAFT = Cigüeñal
- CAM = Leva
- EXCENTRIC CAM = Excéntrica
