The submitted paper presents a kinematic analysis of Stirling engine by the vector method. Position equations are written for various points of the mechanism, and values of velocity and acceleration are obtained from derivation of the equations, depending on time. Equations in matrix form are solved by means of the Matlab program. Graphic dependences of kinematic magnitudes of some points are given in dependence on the angle of rotation of the drive member. Position equations are utilised for the animation of the mechanism. The computational model of the Stirling engine was created in the SolidWorks software program.

Abstract This paper presents a kinematic and dynamic analysis and distribution of the stress for seven-item planar mechanism by means of the SolidWorks software. The authors of the introduced paper deal with the kinematic analysis of planar mechanisms as well as with the implementation of the vector method into the SolidWorks software program in order to determine the kinematic variables (quantities) of the individual bodies in the whole complex system. The dynamic analysis is performed on the basis of the kinematic analysis. Dynamic analysis allows us to design a system of bodies correctly and it is with the respect to the dynamic loading. For the interpretation of the introduced analysis, the seven-item planar mechanism was selected. Graphic dependence of kinematic and dynamic magnitudes of some points is given in dependence on the angle of rotation of the driving item and in dependence on time. In relation to the kinematic and dynamic analysis and subsequent simulation of the planar as well as spatial mechanisms, it is perfect solution to use SolidWorks software program. The considerable advantage of this mentioned program is based on its simplicity from the aspect of modeling and moreover, it is important to point out that utilisation of the mentioned program leads to results which are precise and accurate in the case of the numerical solution of the equations in the whole magnitude referring to motion of mechanism while the given results are obtained in the graphic form.

Abstract This paper presents a kinematic and dynamic analysis and distribution of the stress for six-item planar mechanism by means of the SolidWorks software. The main purpose of the investigation is connected with the kinematic analysis of planar mechanisms as well as with the implementation of the vector method into the SolidWorks software program in order to determine the kinematic variables of the individual bodies in the whole investigated system. The process of the dynamic analysis is based on the kinematic analysis. The dynamic analysis makes possible to design a system of bodies correctly and it is with the respect to the dynamic loading. For the interpretation of the introduced analysis, the six-item planar mechanism was used as example (representative). Graphic dependence of kinematic and dynamic magnitudes of some points is given in dependence on the angle of rotation of the driving item and in dependence on time. In relation to the kinematic and dynamic analysis and subsequent simulation of the planar as well as spatial mechanisms, it is great solution to use SolidWorks software program. The considerable advantage of this mentioned program is based on its simplicity from the aspect of modeling and moreover, it is important to point out that utilisation of the mentioned program leads to results which are precise and accurate in the case of the numerical solution of the equations in the whole magnitude referring to motion of mechanism while the given results are obtained in the graphic form.

In this study, the configuration of a bionic horse robot for equine-assisted therapy is presented. A single-leg system with two degrees of freedom (DOFs) is driven by a cam-linkage mechanism, and it can adjust the span and height of the leg end-point trajectory. After a brief introduction on the quadruped bionic horse robot, the structure and working principle of a single-leg system are discussed in detail. Kinematic analysis of a single-leg system is conducted, and the relationships between the structural parameters and leg trajectory are obtained. On this basis, the pressure angle characteristics of the cam-linkage mechanism are studied, and the leg end-point trajectories of the robot are obtained for several inclination angles controlled by the rotation of the motor for the stride length adjusting. The closed-loop vector method is used for the kinematic analysis, and the motion analysis system is developed in MATLAB software. The motion analysis results are verified by a three-dimensional simulation model developed in Solidworks software. The presented research on the configuration, kinematic modeling, and pressure angle characteristics of the bionic horse robot lays the foundation for subsequent research on the practical application of the proposed bionic horse robot.

This paper presents a novel, precision, maneuverable, 3-DOF translational parallel mechanism. The mechanism’s important feature is that all of the kinematic joints are the revolute joints. The paper derives the mechanism’s kinematic forward solution and inverse solution by using of coordinate transformation elimination method and vector method, and establishes proper kinematic modeling. Kinematic simulation is carried out by ADAMS virtual prototyping software. The operating data is obtained, it verifies the correctness of solving the forward and inverse solution, and solve the question of choices for many results during the theoretical solution. This technique can provide a useful tool in the design of kinematic trajectory of the parallel mechanism’s end-effector and the kinematic analysis of other parallel mechanism.

In this paper, the kinematics of 5-UPS parallel machine tool is analyzed, and a kinematic analysis method combining kinematic analysis and computer kinematics software is proposed. Under the premise that the parallel machine tool sector parameters is known, firstly we use the vector method to establish a mathematical model of inverse kinematics, and in accordance with a U-shaped processing trajectory the inverse solution is calculated; Secondly, three-dimensional model of the parallel machine tool is modeled in Adams, and kinematic constraints are set correctly; Finally, the inverse kinematics solution of the mathematical model is used as the Adams drive input, then the positive solutions is carried out. Compared through the Adams simulation results with U-machining path, it is verified that the inverse solution of the mathematical model and parallel machine tool bodies both are correct, it has certain significance for Parallel machine tools and other parallel robot kinematics analysis.

To study the functioning of the jaw apparatus of fish was developed and tested kinematic scheme using crank mechanism. This model is a modified analogue of the previously used four-link hinge system. In this development, based on empirical studies, was taken into account the immobility of the pterygoid and Palatine bones, which in previous works were considered as moving elements. The application of the analytical approach allowed to determine the dependence of the angles and links of the mechanism, as well as the kinematic characteristics of the upper and lower jaw blocks. The morphometric data of the jaw apparatus of two closely related species of coastal Cottoidei, characterized by linear parameters of bones, were used for the implementation of kinematic analysis. As a result of the study, it was found that the increase in the length of the jaws affects the space-time kinematic characteristics, changing the amplitude and speed of movement. It is shown that the angle of rotation and the angular velocity of the maxillary block decreases with the transition of views to the power of large objects, since the extension of the mouth becomes less relevant and is compensated by an increase in its size. At the same time, this provides an increase in the angle of rotation of the mandibular block and, accordingly, the maximum height of the mouth opening. In General, the resulting kinematic scheme and analytical dependences can be used to calculate the range of possible options and the speed of movements in different species of fish with a similar type of jaw apparatus.

The Gough-Stewart platform has been successfully used in a wide variety of fields ranging from medical to automotive applications. This paper proposes a 6-RR RPRR parallel manipulator with orthogonal non-intersecting RR-joint configurations and ball screw actuators without guide mechanisms. A novel methodology is developed to define the dependent RR-joint variables and a numerical algorithm is employed to calculate the joint variables. The parasitic motion caused by the helical motion of the ball screw can be expressed and solved with vector method. The inverse kinematics of this manipulator can be solved. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach, simulations are performed with software package ADAMS. A prototype of this manipulator is manufactured. Its resolution, accuracy, and repeatability are measured. It is shown that the presented method is effective for this parallel manipulator.

This paper presents a sensitivity analysis of the Orthoglide, a 3-DOF translational Parallel Kinematic Machine. Two complementary methods are used to analyze its sensitivity to its dimensional and angular variations. First, a linkage kinematic analysis method is used to have a rough idea of the influence of the dimensional variations on the location of the end-effector, and shows that the variations in design parameters of the same type from one leg to another one have the same influence on the end-effector. However, this method does not allow the designer to know the influence of the variations in the parallelograms. Thus, a differential vector method is used to study the influence of the dimensional and angular variations in the parts of the manipulator, and particularly the variations in the parallelograms, on the position and orientation of the end-effector. It turns out that the isotropic kinematic configuration of the manipulator is the least sensitive one to its geometrical variations, contrary to the closest configurations to its kinematic singular configurations, which are the most sensitive to geometrical variations.

In order to realize accurate rotation of steel pipe in automatic rolling pipe bender, a tilt cylinder six bar mechanism driven by pneumatic cylinder was presented. Based on the analysis of mechanism motion’s state, the motion process was divided into three working stages: clamping, rotating and loosening back. And kinematics parameters in every phase of the mechanism were obtained by complex number vector method, furthermore the mechanism kinematics characteristics of the whole process were gained. The results of the simulation example indicated that the mechanism has less change in velocity and more smooth motion during clamping and rotating stages.
