Abstract
A basis for discovering and displaying flexible link mechanisms derived from rigid link mechanisms having less than one degree of freedom is presented. The class of single loop, closed loop, plane flexible link mechanisms having lower pairs is investigated. The class of three dimensional, single loop, closed loop, flexible link, kinematic chains with lower pairs is investigated within the limits of the Kutzbach Criterion.
