I wanted to know if there is any sort of archive of mechanisms that contains a brief description of mechanisms like there type of motion and forces involved. Not lengthy derivations and other stuff.

$\begingroup$ Welcome to robotics Adnan, but I'm afraid that it is not clear what you are asking. We prefer practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face, so it is a good idea to include details of what what you would like to achieve, what you have tried, what you expected to see and what you actually saw. Take a look at How to Ask and tour for more information on how stack exchange works. If you edit your question to make it more clear, flag it for moderator attention and we can reopen it for you. $\endgroup$– Mark BoothSep 1, 2015 at 10:29

Mechanisms and Mechanical Devices Sourcebook - Nicholas P. Chironis & Neil Sclater, McGraw-Hill, ISBN 0-07-011356-4. The format of this book is more akin to a scrapbook of newspaper clippings, but it is a good visual "food-for-thought" collection spanning several generations of mechanism design for a broad range of applications and industries.
