Crank length: a
Conrod length: b
Eccentricity of the slider crank mechanism: e
(distance between rotary axis of the crank and line tracing by a point on axis of the slider pin)
Key factor for this mechanism: e = b – a
Stroke length of the slider: L = (a.b)
So theoretically, with a given crank of constant radius a, it is possible to get the stroke length L as long as desired by increasing the conrod length b.
If b = a; L = 4a
See:
Here: a = 30 ; b= 60 ; L = 1
