flexible components or mechanism?

[giuglioconiglio]

Hi.
I ask you for help with this problem: I have a set, which cinematically acts as a biella, which must be connected and, if possible, enlivened to another set that is a pneumatic cylinder. in the current state I can not combine the cylinder's eyelet with its hole on the biella and this also avoiding to impose all constraints, i.e. the biella in kinematic terms is not bound to rotations but I can not make it move from its position, while the cylinder has no constraints on the race but it is, too, completely rigid. My purpose is not to have an animation, but to be able to see the behavior of the mechanism near the ends of the cylinder race. I put a cinematic box here to better make me understand.

thanks to the giulioconiglio help

I would say you have to use connections and not constraints. always find them in the assembly command. I attach an image to clarify your ideas.
in your case the penumatic glider will be a set in which the stem is mounted on the cylinder with a connection "cylinder" or "course", such assembly will then be mounted with a "pin" on the ground and with another "pin" on the biella, which in turn will be mounted on the ground with a "pin".
I hope I explained.
Bye.
