  2. Linkage (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linkage_(mechanical)

    Variable stroke engine (Autocar Handbook, Ninth edition) A mechanical linkage is an assembly of systems connected to manage forces and movement. The movement of a body, or link, is studied using geometry so the link is considered to be rigid. [1] The connections between links are modeled as providing ideal movement, pure rotation or sliding for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_(unit)

    The chain (abbreviated ch) is a unit of length equal to 66 feet (22 yards ), used in both the US customary and Imperial unit systems. It is subdivided into 100 links. [1] [2] There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile. [2] In metric terms, it is 20.1168 m long. [2] By extension, chainage (running distance) is the ...

  4. Chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain

    A chain is a serial assembly of connected pieces, called links, typically made of metal, with an overall character similar to that of a rope in that it is flexible and curved in compression but linear, rigid, and load-bearing in tension. A chain may consist of two or more links. Chains can be classified by their design, which can be dictated by ...

  5. Master link - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_link

    A master link or quick-release link is a roller chain accessory that allows convenient connection and disconnection of a chain without the need for a chain tool. [1] It acts as a set of the chain's outer plates, so joining two sets of the chain's inner plate ends. Such master links may or may not be re-usable. [2]

  6. Cross-link - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-link

    In chemistry and biology a cross-link is a bond or a short sequence of bonds that links one polymer chain to another. These links may take the form of covalent bonds or ionic bonds and the polymers can be either synthetic polymers or natural polymers (such as proteins ). In polymer chemistry "cross-linking" usually refers to the use of cross ...

  9. Single-chain variable fragment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-chain_variable_fragment

    A single-chain variable fragment ( scFv) is not actually a fragment of an antibody, but instead is a fusion protein of the variable regions of the heavy (V H) and light chains (V L) of immunoglobulins, connected with a short linker peptide of ten to about 25 amino acids. [1] The linker is usually rich in glycine for flexibility, as well as ...
