4. Components are…
The parts or fluids that have a mechanical function

5. Components

6. A basic mechanical function…
Is the role played by a component or a group of components in the function or assembly of a technical object

7. Screw > bolt ?

8. Guiding…
Is the basic mechanical function of any component that controls the motion of one or several moving parts

A component that has the basic mechanical function of guiding

10. Axle ?

11. A link…
Helps connect two or more parts of a technical object

12. Linking…
Is the basic mechanical function provided by any component that links an object’s parts

13. A linking component…
Is one that has the basic mechanical function of linking

15. Main Types of Guides
p. 207

16. Rotational guide
This kind of guide only allows the rotational motion of moving parts

17. Bike Axle

This kind of guide only allows the translational motion of moving parts

19. Bike suspension

20. Characteristics of links
p. 208

21. 1st Characteristic pair
Direct
Indirect

22. Direct
A direct link exists when two parts can hold together without requiring a linking component

23. Cell Phone > Case

24. Indirect
An indirect link exists when the parts require a linking component to hold them together

25. ?
Arm > Frame

26. 2nd Characteristic pair
Rigid
Flexible

27. Rigid
A rigid link exists when the surfaces of the linked parts or the linking component are rigid

28. Base > monitor

29. Flexible
A flexible link exists when the surface of the linked parts or the linking component can be deformed

30. Pages > spine

31. 3rd Characteristic pair
Removable
Non-removable

32. Removable
A removable link exists when linked parts can be separated without damaging them

33. Laces > eyelets

34. Non-removable
A non-removable link exists when separating the linked parts damages them or the linking component

35. ?
Sole > upper

36. Complete link
There is a complete link when there is no movement between linked parts

37. Top > bottom

38. Partial
There is a partial link when at least one part is capable of motion with respect to the other

39. Cap > pen
