Introduction

The four-bar mechanism is the simplest movable closed chain linkage. It consists of
four bodies, called bars or links, connected in a loop by four joints. Generally, the joints
are configured so the links move in parallel planes, and the assembly is called a planar
four-bar linkage

[1]

. The link connected to ground by a hinged joint is usually called a

crank. A link connected to ground by a prismatic joint is called a slider. Sliders are
sometimes considered to be cranks that have a hinged pivot at an extremely long
distance away perpendicular to the travel of the slider. The link that connects two cranks
is called a floating link or coupler. A coupler that connects a crank and a slider, it is
often called a connecting rod.

There are three basic types of planar four-bar linkage depending on the use of revolute
or prismatic joints

[2]

Four revolute joints: The planar quadrilateral linkage is formed by four links and
four revolute joints, denoted RRRR. It consists of two cranks connected by a

coupler.
Three revolute joints and a prismatic joint: The slider-crank linkage is
constructed from four links connected by three revolute and one prismatic joint,
or RRRP. It can be constructed with crank and a slider connected by the
connecting rod. Or it can be constructed as a two cranks with the slider acting as

the coupler, known as an inverted slider-crank.


Two revolute joints and two prismatic joints: The double slider is a PRRP
linkage. This linkage is constructed by connecting two sliders with a coupler
link. If the directions of movement of the two sliders are perpendicular then the
trajectories of the points in the coupler are ellipses and the linkage is known as
an elliptical trammel, or the Trammel of Archimedes.

In this study we will concern about the application of Bucket Pump. The Bucket Pump
has three revolute joints and a prismatic joint. On the other hand, it call slider crank,

where it consist of three revolute joints and one slider. The rotation of the crank drives
the linear movement the slider, or the expansion of gases against a sliding piston in a
cylinder can drive the rotation of the crank. The bucket crank is in-line types slider
crank which means that it has its slider positioned so the line of travel of the hinged
joint of the slider passes through the base joint of the crank. This creates a symmetric
slider movement back and forth as the crank rotates

Problem Statement
Old bucket pump used hands to operate and it is tiring for long usage, so this new
mechanism is designed to make the work to be simpler.

Objective

To construct a model of linkage that related to mechanism design.


To apply the knowledge in mechanism design such as velocity analysis into the
project.
To improve a work mechanism for an easier usage.
To automatize the usage of bucket pump using motor and mechanism linkage.
To calculate the required information for a project to be constructed.

Scope

Model in SOlidwork is only constructed for viewing purpose.


2D working model will be used for calculation and simulation purpose.
Model in constructed based in old type of bucket pump.

3D Design

Figure 2: Design in maximum position


Design Explanation.

Design is built based on 4 linkage mechanism.


The links is connected to power the piston of bucket pump to make it easier to
use.
The links is powered by a motor.
The improvement is made to old bucket pump which is operated only by hands.
New design can be installed into old type without builing a new one.
