The condition for correct steering of a Davis steering is

(a) sinα  = b/c

(b) cosα  = c/b

(c) tanα  = c/2b

(d) cotα  = c/2b

The question was asked in examination.

I'd like to ask this question from Velocity in Mechanisms topic in section Velocity in Mechanisms of Machine Kinematics

Correct choice is (c) tanα  = c/2b

Best explanation: In case of Davis steering gear, the condition for correct steering is

tanα  = c/2b

where  α = Angle of inclination of the links to the vertical.
