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.

A mechanism that converts reciprocating motion into rotating motion, like a piston in a car engine.

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.

A mechanism that converts rotating motion to reciprocating motion. Picture a car engine where the rotating camshaft pushes the piston up and down.

A mechanism that converts oscillating motion into rotating motion. Imagine a seesaw. The up-and-down motion of the seesaw causes the wheel to rotate.

A mechanism that converts reciprocating motion into oscillating motion. Picture a pump with a rod that moves up and down, attached to a pendulum that swings back and forth.

Motion that involves swinging backward and forward in an arc, like a pendulum.

Motion that involves movement in one straight line, like a train on a track.

A mechanism that converts linear motion into rotating motion. Imagine a bike chain with a gear. The linear motion of the chain causes the gear to rotate.

A mechanism that changes the axis of rotation, using gears like bevel gears, worm and wheel, flexible couplings, or belt and pulleys.

A mechanism that transmits force and movement without changing the type of movement, like rods and flexible couplings, allowing for motion in one direction without altering the motion's core nature.

A mechanism that increases output force and decreases speed, using rotating or oscillating parts with chain and sprocket. Picture a crane lifting a heavy object.

Motion repeating in a back-and-forth manner. Like a saw moving back and forth.

A four-bar linkage that can apply and maintain a force. Think of a door hinge.

Example of oscillating motion. A pendulum swinging back and forth is a classic example!

A mechanism primarily used to convert linear motion to rotating motion, commonly used in machinery and power transmission systems.

Used to change the axis of rotation through the use of worm and wheel components. This mechanism allows for a change of direction in rotating movement.
