In this paper was studied the design of feeding material system using four bars linkage mechanism. It was carried out dimensional synthesis of the mechanism based on the complex number method. This synthesis is applied to determine the length of crank, coupler, follower and dyad that control of feeding weight. Base on the results, it is obtained that the dimension of kinematic constants of the four bars linkage and dyad to control 250 kg weight of feeding material reprsented by lengths of crank, coupler and follower are 1 m, 2 m, and 1 m respectively and two links of dyad 0.2 m and 0.75 m. It was also determined the constant of spring to support the opening of the feeding material, 23,18 kN/m and required input torque, 1083 Nm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
