Abstract
This article discusses how to define the kinematic parameters of a crank-cam mechanism. Using the mechanism design, the authors have developed a calculation model and a calculation algorithm that allowed the definition of kinematic parameters of the mechanism, including crank displacements, angular velocities and acceleration, as well as driven link (rocker arm) angular speeds and acceleration. All calculations were performed using the Mathcad mathematical package. The results of the calculations are reported as numerical values.
