Abstract
Geneva mechanisms have been used to obtain an output intermittent circular motion by the means of a continuous circular motion. It offers the option of having a rest time with between motions in the output link. This paper is intended to provide the geometric resolution of this mechanisms via number of steps and diameter of output link. The approach is theorical and does not include tolerances for pins, grooves or locking wheels.
