4.4.1. Search for the Points of Interaction Twenty possible points of interaction are possible (2/ = 1-20) when the edges of the protrusions touch each other or touch the edge of the ring, and the edge of the rings touch the plane of another ring (Figure 4.3). The points on the guides, which are represented by line segments, are given by the sums of two vectors: Figure 4.3. Schematic of the interaction of elements of the rings with the guides of peripheral docking devices . The components of these vectors in system of coordinates 3 are respectively equal to
