    The paper presents the way of determining the dimensions of the elements of a planar linkage when imposing certain conditions regarding the movement of a component piston, aiming at obtaining a mechanism whose total mass is minimal. A computer program that simulates the kinematics of the analyzed mechanism has been developed by the authors using Maple programming environment. The NLPSolve function included in the Optimization Package of Maple has been used for establishing the dimensions of the elements that assure the minimal mass of the linkage. Finally, some simulation results are presented.
