Abstract
The paper analyzes the structural and geometric-kinematic aspects of the articulated bar mechanisms used to actuate the doors of urban buses. A mechanism of this kind consists of two main parts: the control mechanism mounted under or above the door, and the crank-slider final mechanism which actuates the folding doors. The analyzed mechanisms have in their structure simple dyad chains or complex chains of triad type. For these types of planar linkages that are equipping the urban buses, the topological and geometric structure is analyzed in order to find solutions to minimize the swept volume of them.
