Abstract

This paper designed a ratchet mechanism of a pastry slicer. In the first place, this discourse used SolidWorks software to model the ratchet mechanism, then imported the three-dimensional model into ADAMS by the nicer interface between SolidWorks and ADAMS to build a virtual machine and simulated it. The kinematic simulation result of ADAMS not only showed that the ratchet mechanism could fulfill the anticipative design requirements, but also offered the references to design and produce physical prototype of ratchet mechanism. The virtual prototype could be used to do a deeper analysis according to different requirements.
