Abstract

Modern approaches to the design of spherical four-link rotational pair mechanisms synthesized in the so-called “basic sphere” are analyzed. The approach of the synthesis of spherical mechanisms in the SOLIDWORKS software is offered. Examples of synthesis of various types of spherical mechanism are given.
