This article describes the method of structural synthesis of a class of parallel mechanisms that provide plane-parallel movement of the movable platform. The considered method is based on the theory of screws and the concept of virtual circuits. We obtain the structure of parallel mechanisms, containing three connecting kinematic chain.

SUMMARYThis paper presents a systematic method for dealing with mobility analysis and structural synthesis of a class of important spatial mechanisms with coupling chains, which involve more complex coupling relations than spatial parallel mechanisms. First, an approach to the establishment of the motion screw equation of the class of mechanisms is derived. Then, a general methodology for mobility analysis along with detection of rigid substructures is proposed based on the motion screw equation. Third, the principle of structural synthesis of the class of mechanisms is established on the basis of the method of mobility analysis. Finally, some novel spatial mechanisms with coupling chains are synthesized, illustrating the effectiveness of the method. The study of the paper will benefit structural analysis and synthesis of more complex spatial mechanisms with coupling chains.

The current article presents a new family of T2R1-type spatial parallel mechanisms (PMs) with decoupled and unlimited rotation of the moving platform in planar motion. The moving platform performs two independent translations (T2) and one independent unlimited rotation (R1) whose axis is perpendicular to the plane of translations. A method is proposed for structural synthesis of T2R1-type PMs based on the theory of linear transformations. The moving platform has unlimited rotational capabilities and is decoupled with respect to translational motion. To the best of the author's knowledge, this article presents for the first time solutions of T2R1-type spatial PMs with decoupled and unlimited rotation of the moving platform in planar motion.

This paper presents the explicit mapping relations between topological structure and position and orientation characteristic (POC) of mechanism motion output. It deals with (1) the symbolic representation and the invariant property of the topological structure of the mechanism, (2) the matrix representation of POC of mechanism motion output, and (3) the POC equations of serial and parallel mechanisms and the corresponding symbolic operation rules. The symbolic operation involves simple mathematic tools and fewer operation rules and has clear geometrical meaning, so it is easy to use. The POC equations cannot only be used for structural analysis of the mechanism (such as determining POC of the relative motion between any two links of a mechanism and the rank of single-loop kinematic chain and calculating the full-cycle DOF of a mechanism, etc.) but can be used for structural synthesis of the mechanism as well (e.g., structural synthesis of the rank-degenerated serial mechanism, the over constrained single-loop mechanism, and the rank-degenerated parallel mechanism, etc.).
