Square Hole Mechanism Exhibit — design views
Design-image sequence
Inspect the reference images.
Compare Square Hole Mechanism Exhibit in five labelled still views. Turn a handle to explore how a constant-width curved triangular profile can move within a nearly square boundary.

Look at the action.
Understand the reference.
Design views of Square Hole Mechanism Exhibit. These still images show the reference layout; they do not record the activity in operation.
Plan the comparison
Follow a corner and the shape’s centre as the handle turns, then compare the traced envelope with a circle’s rotation.
Question to explore
Why does the curved triangular shape need guided motion to approach a square? Recognize constant width in the Reuleaux triangle profile.
This film sequences existing reference images. It is not continuous operating footage or a moving 3D simulation; final function and configuration follow the agreed project.
