Straight Line Linkage Application
Hi fellow crazy engineers!
First time poster here so be gentle 😀
For a project at University I have been tasked with creating a device that generates a straight line, or moverment in a straight line and building a prototype for an application of my choice.
As I have to make a prototype some kind of mechanical linkage seems to be the best solution (i.e. some modifaction of Peaucellier-Lipkin Linkage) I am, however, struggling to come up with any applications to design the actuall device for. My only real ideas so far have been an alternat mechanism for winding a car window or alternative moverment for windscreen wipers.
I was wonding if anyone could help inspire me

juma1987If u need easy software to simulate it u can try downloading SAM42, i found it very useful for basic mechanisms -

A link would be useful, i googled it and only found users to various websites called sam42.juma1987If u need easy software to simulate it u can try downloading SAM42, i found it very useful for basic mechanisms
Any ideas on an application would be very appreciatted -

The only problem is that it doesnt work with 64bit OS ;-)
