Oscillating Cylinder Engine:
The arrangement of the Oscillating Cylinder Engine is used to convert the reciprocating motion into a rotary motion. in this method there exist in a turning pair which is a fixed link. The link 3 is corresponds to the connecting rod of a reciprocating steam engine mechanism.
The cylinder is fixed at a point A and it oscillates about a fixed pin, when the piston inside the cylinder moves in and out, connecting rod which is connected to it reciprocates by this crank used to rotate at one end of fixed origin.
