4, Initial linkages of the clank sliders.

Derivation

This derivation is based off equation 2:

(Eq. 2)

Where the derivative with respect to time is:

(Eq. 9)

The claw linkage velocities are similarly the derivative of equation 4:

(Eq. 10)

I again use an equation solver on equation 9 to find the velocity of the slider, 'cx, and then use the equation solver on equation 10 to find ω

4 and ω5.

Again, because the rest of the system is parallel to links 4 and 5, the end effectors have the same angular velocities.
