This book presents a carefully curated selection of 100 practical design cases that reveal key mechanical mechanisms in innovative machinery and electronics. By consolidating years of technical expertise, the authors guide readers through designs that, while not flawless, effectively fulfill their intended functions.
In recent years, many new products have emerged in machinery and electronics, necessitating innovative designs. As a result, the mechanism designs of mechanical equipment are facing greater challenges. The mechanical mechanism is a crucial component of machines. An ideal mechanism design plays a pivotal role in the development of new products. Using their vast experience in technical designs, the authors have compiled a collection of 100 design cases in this volume. The volume aims at assisting technicians engaged in mechanism design and innovation in developing their own unique design concepts and becoming more proficient in the innovative design of mechanisms. The cases presented in this book are all drawn from practical production experiences, and each case study clearly outlines the details of the mechanism in question. While they may not be optimally designed, all achieve their intended functions.
