STEERING LINKAGE TEACHING
AID
MODEL
:
IA-SLT
SIZE
:
100 cm x 65 cm
This is classroom demonstration aid that is large
enough for a group of students. It consists of a mock-up for
the wheels and basic steering linkage system of a vehicle.
It’s purpose is to demonstrate the operation and theory of basic tracking and
alignment principles, including parallelogram and trapezium geometric alignment.
The unit consists of the following components laid out on the demo board
which is to be hung from the wall: two components
representing wheels (pivoting) variable arm linkages between the wheels, scales
for monitoring position of the wheels.

: PARALLEL CRANK
MECHANISM
MODEL
: IA-PCM
SIZE
: 45 cm x 30 cm
This unit is a plexiglass model of the basic
elements of a windshield wiper motor and mechanism which is mounted on a table
top base. It is used to demonstrate how rotational motion is converted into
oscillating linear motion of the “wipers” and this can be compared with the
position of the rotating crank
