- Abstract
The paper presents a general method for finding the contact point between two moving plane curves. After establishing the general relations, these are applied for real examples, met in engineering. The complexity of the problem comes out from the fact that, in the general case, the trajectory of the contact point is unknown. Thus, there are considered the rotating cam and oscillating curve face follower, of elliptical profiles; the elliptical rotating cam with flat face -rotating and translating follower mechanism is next analyzed. The case of knife edge follower is obtained as a particular situation of the cases above considered when the trajectory of contact point is known, a straight line for translating follower and a circular one for oscillating follower.
