The mechanism consists of a lever system coupled with an eccentric mechanism to achieve the desired motion sequence. Lever System for Linear Motion: The lever system comprises a rigid lever connected to a movable joint. This lever is designed to generate linear motion when actuated. As the lever is moved, it causes the component to move either upwards or downwards, depending on the configuration of the mechanism. Incorporating an Eccentric Mechanism for 90-Degree Rotation: To achieve the 90-degree rotation, an eccentric mechanism is incorporated. An eccentric is a circular disk with an off-center cam. As the disk rotates, the cam moves along an eccentric path. Connecting the Lever with the Eccentric: The lever is positioned to come into contact with the eccentric cam. When the cam moves, it actuates the lever, adding an additional motion that results in a 90-degree rotation. Synchronization and Timing: To ensure the 90-degree rotation occurs at the correct timing, synchronization between the lever and the eccentric mechanism is crucial. This can be achieved through precise positioning and control of the eccentric, ensuring that the rotation occurs only when the component reaches the desired position. This mechanism provides a versatile way to control both linear and rotational motions using a single motor. It offers precise and synchronized movement, enabling accurate implementation of the desired motion sequence. | Photo
