The Hoekens (or Hoeckens) mechanism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoeckens_linkage) is named after Karl Hoecken (1874−1962) and is well-known because it is a four-bar mechanism that converts rotational motion to approximate straight-line motion for a portion of the path of a point on the connector link of the 4-bar (see figure, from http://mechanical-design-handbook.blogspot.com/2011/02/hoekens-straight-line-mechanism.html). As can be seen from the spacing of the dots in the figure, the velocity in during the straight line motion is also quite constant.

The Hoekens mechanism is sometimes used to provide an intermittent straight-line motion (push) to an object in a manufacturing environment.

In this tutorial a Hoekens mechanism will be defined and the loads on the connector body will be evaluated. Interesting (peak) loads at certain output times in the simulation will be selected and MBD for ANSYS will prepare projects for linear statics analysis for those load cases.
