The degree of freedom

anyone can help me

I do not know what wrong

I know this law of degree of freedom

n = 3 (l – 1) – 2 j – h

l=link , j=lower pair , h=high pair

n = 3 (l – 1) – 2 j – h

n = 3 (4 – 1) – 2 × 4– 0 = 1 one degree of freedom

but of program I think this happen

n = 3 (4 – 1) – 2 × 4– 1 = 0

n = 3 (4 – 1) – 2 × 4– 0 = 1 degree of freedom

n = 3 (4 – 1) – 2 × 4– 1 = 0 but this result of program

this example of 5 link i must have two degree but program give 1 degree

Each motor controls a degree of freedom.

The formula for the planar condition in the link above, appears different from the one you show.

I agree, the depicted mechanism looks to have 2-degees of freedom. Check to make sure none of the pin joints has an extra constraint.

I give my formula form book "Theory Of Machine R.S.Khurmi"

and this not problem

problem is all my mechanism degree of freedom have less than one

I check pin from all bar and I think no any extra constrain but same result all time

Have you attached any motors?

yes i put servo motors

can you explain more and can you tell me how you can define degree of freedom correct

thank you very much 9-5-2014+10-17-41+AM.png
