Crank (mechanism) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A crank is an arm attached at right angles to a rotating shaft by which reciprocating motion is imparted to or received from the shaft. It is used to change circular into reciprocating motion, or re...

Pull the crank of this mechanism and you will see that it transfers rotary motion into translation. Most mechanisms are driven by motors, and slider-cranks are often used to transform rotary motion into linear motion.

This model is one example of a slider-crank mechanism. The slider crank mechanism is used in internal combustion engines. In this model however, the sliding link or 'piston' is grounded. The slider crank is often used to convert rotary motion into alternating linear motion.

A linear motion, back and forth, is transferred to a circular motion or vice versa. A rod is connected to a rotational crank, by moving the rod a circular motion is created. Alternatively, turning the rotational crank creates a linear motion...

The Slider-Crank is a linkage that transforms linear motion (piston) to circular motion (crank) or vice versa. We recognize it, since it is used in the internal combuston engine, wherein the input force is the gas pressure on the piston.
