Lever Linkages in Mechanical Oscillatory Systems

The chapter displays various forms and possibilities of lever interactions in the system of connections of typical elementary links. Elastic links in lever connections formed by devices for converting movements are considered. Systems with two and three lever connections of the second kind are considered. A new approach has been developed to assess the possibilities of sequential connection of typical elements in structural interpretations of vibration protection systems. A method for determining the reduced stiffness is presented, taking into account the introduction of devices with motion transformation. A generalized approach has been developed that takes into account the support of the lever on the link.
