Abstract

[After the death of Wilhelm Hartmann in 1922, the direct successor of Franz Reuleaux on the Chair of Kinematics (Lehrstuhl für Getriebelehre) at the Technische Hochschule (TH) Berlin-Charlottenburg, there was a row of intermediate professors until Hermann Alt from Dresden finally got the chair in 1939. Karl Hoecken belonged to this row of intermediate professors between 1930 and 1934. Looking through Hoecken´s estate we can find some new aspects of the famous kinematic model collection established by Reuleaux. This paper also takes up three publications of Hoecken on mechanisms, models and their kinematic equations, and thus gives a short historical overview over Hoecken´s contribution to the field of kinematics at that time. Incidentally, Hoecken himself added 26 own models to the then Reuleaux collection.]
