INVENTING… THE WHEEL

...INVENT THE WHEELAt this stage of the work, outline the design of the actuator, which provides translational movement of the model. Let’s start with the analysis of the already known mechanisms, which are used in a large technique (Fig. 1). Under the terms of our problem, the most acceptable is the idea of using the wheel.
