In this video, I demonstrate 5 useful mechanisms in LEGO. These ones are more centered on assembly-line mechanisms (for an upcoming video), but I hope it can be used in other applications as well. As this is Mechanical Principles 10, I most likely will pause this series for a while. Do not worry though, I still plan to demonstrate interesting mechanisms in the future.

Turn on subtitles for more explanations about the mechanisms.

0:00 Pneumatic Square Motion Mechanism
0:38 Inverted Rotation Linkage
1:17 Geneva Mechanism
2:04 Double Worm Gear Mechanism
2:47 Pick and Place
3:26 Back and Forth Arm
4:14 End Screen

The Inverted Rotation linkage comes from the following video:
   • Lego Sketchbook - 1 - Axle rotation i...  

The Geneva mechanism design was inspired by the following video:
   • Geneva drive (improved ver.)ゼネバ機構　改良版  

The Double Worm Gear Mechanism was inspired by the following video:
   • LEGO unique worm gears system  

I apologize for the spelling error in the last mechanism, it should be spelled "forth" not "fourth"

    I love these videos. Sometimes I think univerities and schools should honestly use LEGO to teach engineering and physics. Like for projects, all the measurents are perfect so students can just focus on desigining and building. keep at it man. :)

    If you're listening closely, the firs mechanism has actually a secondary function, and a very interessing one, it plays the theme of Mission: Impossible

    So I saw the inverted rotation linkage and thought it was pretty cool, but when I saw the double warm gear mechanism I lost my mind blown 🤯. So awesome. Man, the possibilities!
  • @okboing
    finally, a principles video with concepts that aren't overused in literally every principles video
  • @oshag3670
    0:40 I have never seen anything like that. Its so awesome i cant stop smiling
  • @joaoonda
    I´m amazed with your creativity, all examples are fantastic! Keep up the good work!

    I feel like the double worm gear should be used in like some complex gearbox, just for shifting gears. Idk how it would look/work, but it seems that would be the way to go. Great video...as always!
  • @0bsidianPrime
    That double worm gear mechanism could make for an extraordinary turret.
  • @genesisplus4325
    I think that the double worm gear would be great for a sliding gun turret.
  • @Amadeus2231
    It would be cool if there was a way to make the pick a plate without the servo, might not be possible but it would be really cool.
  • @ghamerons6287
    I feel that the last 2 have definitely been used or should be used for a GBC
  • @Ronal_d
    the first one doesnt use a pump? does it move the airflow from one cylinder to the other and back?
