Closed-form direct and inverse kinematics of a new three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel manipulator with inextensible limbs and base-mounted actuators are presented. The manipulator has higher resolution and precision than the existing three-DOF mechanisms with extensible limbs. Since all of the manipulator actuators are base mounted, higher payload capacity, smaller actuator sizes, and lower power dissipation can be obtained. The manipulator is suitable for alignment applications where only tip, tilt, and piston motions are significant. The direct kinematics of the manipulator is reduced to solving an eighth-degree polynomial in the square of the tangent of the half-angle between one of the limbs and the base plane. Hence, there are at most 16 assembly configurations for the manipulator. In addition, it is shown that the 16 solutions are eight pairs of reflected configurations with respect to the base plane. Numerical examples for the direct and inverse kinematics of the manipulator are also presented.

In this paper, a novel 3-degree-of-freedom (DOF) parallel manipulator that can perform three rotations around the remote centre is presented. The theory of screws and reciprocal screws is employed for the analysis of the geometric conditions. In particular, using circular guide to instead of R joints, so that has the advantage of enabling continuous 360° revolute around Z-axis. The inverse kinematics of mechanism is given and the workspace has a good performance. To compare with the machine constructed with traditional joints, it has the advantage of high rigidity and precision.

A crucial design challenge in minimally invasive surgical (MIS) robots is the provision of a fully decoupled four degrees-of-freedom (4-DOF) remote center-of-motion (RCM) for surgical instruments. In this paper, we present a new parallel manipulator that can generate a 4-DOF RCM over its end-effector and these four DOFs are fully decoupled, i.e., each of them can be independently controlled by one corresponding actuated joint. First, we revisit the remote center-of-motion for MIS robots and introduce a projective displacement representation for coping with this special kinematics. Next, we present the proposed new parallel manipulator structure and study its geometry and motion decouplebility. Accordingly, we solve the inverse kinematics problem by taking the advantage of motion decouplebility. Then, via the screw system approach, we carry out the Jacobian analysis for the manipulator, by which the singular configurations are identified. Finally, we analyze the reachable and collision-free workspaces of the proposed manipulator and conclude the feasibility of this manipulator for the application in minimally invasive surgery.

This paper presents a procedure that determines the dimensions of two constraining links to be added to a three degree-of-freedom spherical parallel manipulator so that it becomes a one degree-of-freedom spherical (8, 10) eight-bar linkage that guides its end-effector through five task poses. The dimensions of the spherical parallel manipulator are unconstrained, which provides the freedom to specify arbitrary base attachment points as well as the opportunity to shape the overall movement of the linkage. Inverse kinematics analysis of the spherical parallel manipulator provides a set of relative poses between all of the links, which are used to formulate the synthesis equations for spherical RR chains connecting any two of these links. The analysis of the resulting spherical eight-bar linkage verifies the movement of the system.

Abstract Presented is an analysis of the kinematics and the inverse dynamics of a proposed three DOF parallel manipulator resembling the Stewart platform in a general form. In the kinematic analysis, the inverse kinematics, velocity and acceleration analyses are performed, respectively, using vector analysis and general homogeneous transformations. An algorithm to solve the inverse dynamics of the proposed parallel manipulator is then presented using a Lagrangin technique. In this case, it is found that one should introduce and subsequently eliminate Lagrange multipliers in order to arrive at the governing equations. Numerical examples are finally carried out to examine the validity of the approach and the accuracy of the numerical technique employed. The trajectory of motion of the manipulator is also performed using a cubic spline.

In this paper, a parallel manipulator is comprised of sliders and links. The end-effector has an orientation. Sliders execute a linear motion along parallel guidelines and make the connected links rotate. We derived displacement, velocity and acceleration from kinematic analysis of this manipulator using direct and inverse kinematics,found constraint conditions and proposed the verification algorithm of constraint conditions. With the result from the simulation, we found that there was a local workspace where the manipulator cannot carry out a series of link motion.
