4.2.6 Robert’s Mechanism Fig. 4.13: The Robert’s Mechanism Robert‘s linkage is another four-bar approximate straight line generator mechanism with coupler point C. Good results can be obtained with construction parameters d = 1‚ b = 0.538 ‚ a = c = 0.530 e = f = 1.04. Robert‘s mechanism generates a curve which has a linear part parallel to the base link. Links and coupler curve are symmetric.[20] The limitation of this mechanism is that the straight line path is very short
