Syntax

[SG,SGA]=SGgearchainrotate(SG,f,W,[SGA])

Input Parameter

SG: Cell list of gear wheel with base frames 'B'
f: array of gear ration with respect to the 1st one f(1)==1
W: array of desired rotatation of the following axis
SGA: cell array of correspponding wahser or axes to be moved with the gears

Output Parameter

SG: cell array of gears with modified position and rotation
SGA: cell array of correspponding wahser or axes

Examples


SGgearchain(1,[9 13 17 21],'',0); [SG,TL,f,SGR]=SGgearchain(1,[9 13 17 21],'','',0); % a gear chain
