Open and view: Ingenious Mechanisms for Designers and Inventors Volume IV

Ingenious Mechanisms for Designers and Inventors Volume IV. The mechanisms described in Volume IV have been developed for application in a wide variety of fields. Rather than classify them by application, however, they have been grouped by type ·of mechanical movement. Thus, the reader is quickly guided to those mechanisms which may provide a possible solution to his problem.
