Abstract
The most mechanisms are driven by a motor at uniform speed. However, more and more researches indicate that there are many advantages if a mechanism can be driven at non-uniform speed, and this kind of mechanism is called a variable input mechanism. The purpose of this work is to propose a novel approach for driving a variable speed mechanism by using a five-bar mechanism as cam-controlled planetary gear train, and to investigate its feasibility by conducting prototype experiments. In addition, the feasibility of the proposed method is verified by conducting prototype testing. The experimental results show that the prototype is a suitable alternative for driving variable speed mechanisms. In addition, due to its mechanical nature, the prototype has the advantages of higher reliability, faster response, and larger power output compared to a servomotor solution.
