Traditional simulation mechanisms are unable to meet the simulation requirements of spacecraft launcher in low-gravity environment, like in the Moon. Based on the advantages of wire-driven parallel mechanism, a 6-DOF low-gravity environment simulation device with eight wires is designed in this paper. Firstly, the configuration and dimensional design of this wire-driven parallel mechanism are carried out. To operate and control the wire-driven parallel mechanism, a force distribution algorithm is introduced and the workspace is analyzed. Then, an evaluation index named quality index is established in order to study the performance of the wire-driven parallel manipulator in its workspace and reasonable tension is obtained after analyzing the influence on quality index caused by different wire tension.

This paper presents the patented mechanical concept for steering and level control of a mobile robot equipped with four driving units and the methods that lead to the development of this mechatronic system. The mobile robot exhibits excellent maneuverability and considerable advantages when moving in difficult environments such as rough landscapes. The paper discusses a refined approach to develop mechatronic systems which is based on the well-known V-model. The refined approach allows a conscious planning and control of a mechatronic design process.


CIndustries encourage the use of low-cost compact and easily controllable equipment’s to implement automation due to the lack of skilled labors and low productivity. This demands the need for more efficient and affordable novel mechanisms and processes. In this paper, the kinematic analysis of a 3-PPSS (P— prismatic joint, S- spherical joint) parallel manipulator having an equilateral mobile platform is explained. The Kinematic analysis is done using the Modified Denavit-Hartenberg (DH) modelling technique. The inverse kinematic equations are further solved using Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm to obtain an exact solution for the joint variables corresponding to an instantaneous pose of the end effector. Static structural analysis is done using ANSYS software to determine the deformations and stresses induced. Optimum dimensions are chosen for the manipulator based on this analysis. Finally, an ARDUINO based control is implemented to manipulate the mobile platform by controlling the active prismatic joints.

The purpose of this work is to introduce a new parallel actuated exoskeleton architecture that can be used for multiple degree-of-freedom (DoF) biological joints. This is done in an effort to provide a better alternative for the augmentation of these joints than serial actuation. The new design can be described as a type of spherical parallel manipulator (SPM) that utilizes three 4 bar substructures to decouple and control three rotational DoFs. Four variations of the 4 bar spherical parallel manipulator (4B-SPM) are presented in this work. These include a shoulder, hip, wrist, and ankle exoskeleton. Also discussed are three different methods of actuation for the 4B-SPM, which can be implemented depending on dynamic performance requirements. This work could assist in the advancement of a future generation of parallel actuated exoskeletons that are more effective than their contemporary serial actuated counterparts.
