Figure 2.1 shows an apparatus used to rehabilitate the elbow for a variety of medical conditions. The apparatus consists of a cylindrical bar with a track in which a slider can move. The bar is strapped and fixed on the patient's body while the hand is strapped on the slider. (a) Describe and sketch the apparatus as a four-bar mechanism assuming that the shoulder joint, the elbow joint, the lower and upper arms are part of the mechanism. (b) Assign reasonable lengths to the links of the mechanism you have described in part (a); calculate the velocities of the lower and upper arms when the slider is at the middle of the track and going downwards at a speed of 0.2 m/s.

Paula has worked for Brindle Corporation for 3 years.  During this time, she has worked as a machine operator/cell leader in various work cells.  Recently, the plant went to mandatory 12-hour shifts and plans to remain on this schedule for several months.   Paula’s present work cell is manufacturing 3-inch diameter exhaust tubes that are made from stainless steel.  These tubes get a hole punched in them, a flange welded on, and burrs ground off.  The pipe then gets placed into a gage to check that it was made correctly.  (The tubes weigh about six pounds.)   Paula has been performing the welding operation.  She leans into the machine and loads the part into a fixture then positions the flange.  Both pieces are clamped (using hand clamps) into position and the machine is cycled by depressing two palm buttons.   The gaging operation requires placing the finished part into the gage and clamping it (using hand clamps) into place. A pin is depressed to verify the position of the hole and a…
