Find the length of stroke if the length of the slotted bar is 0.45m and LOS passes through the free end of the lever. Length of driving crank = 0.12m, distance between fixe centres = 0.24m. Crank and slotted lever quick return motion mechanism.

(a) 450mm

(b) 400mm

(c) 500mm

(d) 475mm

Correct answer is (a) 450mm

To explain I would say: We know that length of stroke is:

2x450xsin(90-α/2)

α=120 degrees,

therefore

length = 450mm.
