Flashcards
Screw thread
Screw thread
A mechanism that converts rotating motion into linear motion. Imagine a screw going into a piece of wood. The rotation of the screw causes it to move in a straight line.
Peg and slot
Peg and slot
A mechanism that converts reciprocating motion into rotating motion, like a piston in a car engine.
Crank and Link
Crank and Link
A mechanism that converts rotating motion into reciprocating motion. Imagine a car engine where the rotation of the crankshaft makes the piston move up and down.
