Re: Linkage Design Problem

Since you only care about the end positions, all you need is a piston and a lever. The piston does not need to go to its stops, put mechanical stops on the lever that can be adjusted to set the alignment for each wheel.

if fact, it could be spring loaded in one direction, so the robot will default to one direction if your pnuematics fail (or simplify your pnuematics so they are only driven in one direction.
