Carrier Slide (with Safety Device)
Product Code : JA-PLE-4163
The Carrier Slide (with Safety Device) (SKU JA-PLE-4163) is an A3 board model of a standard mechanism for intermittent transport, in which an eccentric cam, a push rod and a spring-loaded link move a carrier forward in steps. This carrier slide intermittent motion mechanism model is one of a series of sixteen mechanism boards, and JaincoLab supplies it for theory of machines and workshop technology teaching.
Specifications
The frame carries an eccentric cam on axle O, a push rod CD in guide A and a link DE with a fixed pivot at P; a spring holds the link against the cam for the forward stroke, and the cam acting on a pin at E gives the return stroke.

Applications of the carrier slide intermittent motion mechanism model
Turning the cam by hand shows how a continuous rotation is converted into a stepwise forward-and-return motion of the carrier, and tracing the loci of the joints lets students compare link speeds and study the shape of each stroke.
- Determining the loci of the moving parts of an intermittent transport mechanism
- Comparing the spring-driven forward stroke with the cam-driven return stroke
- Studying cam and follower action with an eccentric cam
- Kinematics of machines lessons in polytechnics, engineering colleges and TVET institutes

Frequently asked questions
What does the carrier slide model demonstrate?
It demonstrates a standard mechanism for intermittent transport, driven by an eccentric cam, a push rod and a spring-loaded link.
What provides the forward and return strokes?
A spring holds the link against the cam and provides the forward stroke; the cam acting against a pin at E gives the return stroke.
Can the loci be drawn?
Yes. The hollow rivets accept a pencil, so the paths of the joints can be traced onto paper clipped to the board.
