Whitworth Quick Return Apparatus | ProDynami 1244
Product Overview
Whitworth Quick Return Apparatus ProDynami 1244 produces and analyzes irregular reciprocating motion with slow feed and quick return. This Whitworth Quick Return Apparatus features a driving crank and driven slider crank, with a crank radius of 46mm, slider radius of 55mm, and connecting rod length of 145mm. The input angle is set by turning the crank, and the output stroke is read on a ruler on the slider. Transmission components are made of aluminium, mounted on ball bearings, and the unit is easy to carry using two handles.

Construction and Design
The Whitworth Quick Return Apparatus ProDynami 1244 consists of two cranks: a driving crank and a driven slider crank. It includes a ruler and a rotating disc on which the driven crank is attached. The input angle is set by turning the crank. The output stroke is read on a ruler fitted on the slider. Transmission components are manufactured in aluminium. All axles are equipped with ball bearings. The slider crank and connecting rod are mounted on ball bearings. The unit has a low weight and is easy to carry using two handles. The crank radius is 46mm. The slider radius is 55mm. The connecting rod length is 145mm. The axle offset drive slider is 30mm. This construction allows the Whitworth Quick Return Apparatus to clearly demonstrate the transmission behaviour of uneven reciprocating motion.
