In the design of a timing mechanism, the motion of pin P in the fixed circular slot is controlled by the guide A, which is being elevated by its lead screw. Guide A starts from rest with pin P at the lowest point in the circular slot, and accelerates upward at a constant rate until it reaches a speed of 90 mm/s at the halfway point of its vertical displacement. The guide then decelerates at a constant rate and comes to a stop with pin

Clutches, Brakes, Couplings, and Flywheels

The clutch is described as a machine element used to connect or disconnect two shafts together to transmit torque or power. The clutch works on the principles of friction. The clutch is commonly used in automobiles to transfer power from the driving shaft to the driven shaft.
