In this paper, a 3-DOF translational parallel mechanism with parallelogram linkage was studied. According to the space vector relation between the moving platform and the fixed base, the direct and inverse position solutions of this mechanism was deduced through analytical method. In addition, the error of the algorithm was analyzed, and the algorithm had turned out to be effective and to have the satisfactory computational precision. On the above basis, the workspace of this mechanism was found through graphical method, which was compared with that of finding through Monte Carlo method, and there was the feasibility for analyzing the workspace of the mechanism by graphical method. The characteristic of the mechanism was analyzed by comparing the results of two analysis methods, which provided a theoretical basis for the application of the mechanism.

For spatial multibody systems, the dynamic equations of multibody systems with compound clearance joints have a high level of nonlinearity. The coupling between different types of clearance joints may lead to abundant dynamic behavior. At present, the dynamic response analysis of the spatial parallel mechanism considering the three-dimensional (3D) compound clearance joint has not been reported. This work proposes a modeling method to investigate the influence of the 3D compound clearance joint on the dynamics characteristics of the spatial parallel mechanism. For this purpose, 3D kinematic models of spherical clearance joint and revolute joint with radial and axial clearances are derived. Contact force is described as normal contact and tangential friction and later introduced into the nonlinear dynamics model, which is established by the Lagrange multiplier technique and Jacobian of constraint matrix. The influences of compound clearance joint and initial misalignment of bearing axes on the system are analyzed. Furthermore, validation of dynamics model is evaluated by ADAMS and Newton–Euler method. This work provides an essential theoretical basis for studying the influences of 3D clearance joints on dynamic responses and nonlinear behavior of parallel mechanisms.

Spherical joint is a type of common kinematic pair in spatial parallel mechanism. The existence of spherical joint clearance has many adverse effects on the mechanism. A method of forecasting the dynamic behaviors of spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance joint is proposed. The 4-UPS-UPU spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance is taken as the research object, the dynamic response, and nonlinear characteristics of the mechanism are studied. The kinematic model and the contact force model of the spherical clearance are established. The dynamic equation of the spatial parallel mechanism with spherical joint clearance is derived by Newton–Euler method. The above-mentioned dynamic equation is solved by using the ODE113 function that is based on a variable order numerical differential algorithm in matlab. The dynamic responses of moving platform with different clearance values are analyzed. The contact force and the center trajectory of the sphere at the spherical joint are obtained. In addition, the phase trajectory, Poincare map, and bifurcation diagram are analyzed, and the nonlinear characteristics of the spherical clearance joint and the moving platform are obtained. By comparing the results, such as the acceleration of moving platform and the contact force, with virtual prototype simulation, the correctness of the dynamic equation of the spatial parallel mechanism with spherical clearance joint and the analysis results are verified. The researches show that the change of clearance value has a great influence on the motion state of spherical clearance joint, and chaos phenomena appears in the clearance joint with the increase in the clearance value. And the impact phenomenon appears between the spherical joint elements, which makes the mechanism generated vibration.

The Jacobian approach to the kinestatic analysis of a planar suspension mechanism has been previously presented. In this paper, the theory is extended to three-dimensional kinestatic analysis by developing a full kinematic model and viewing it as a spatial parallel mechanism. The full kinematic model consists of two pairs of the front (double wishbone) and rear (multi-link) suspension mechanisms together with a newly developed ground-wheel contact model. The motion of each wheel of four suspension mechanisms is represented by the corresponding instantaneous screw at any instant. A vehicle is considered to be a 6-degrees-of-freedom spatial parallel mechanism whose vehicle body is supported by four serial kinematic chains. Each kinematic chain consists of a virtual instantaneous screw joint and a kinematic pair representing ground-wheel contact model. The kinestatic equation of the 6-degrees-of-freedom spatial parallel mechanism is derived in terms of the Jacobian. As an important application, a cornering motion of a vehicle is analysed under the assumption of steady-state cornering. A numerical example is presented to illustrate how to determine the optimal locations of strut springs for the least roll angle in cornering motion using the proposed method.

This paper describes the kinematic analysis and motion control of a hyper redundant robot built by serially connecting many units with a few DOF. Each unit of the manipulator is a spatial parallel mechanism with 3 DOF and is composed of 2 stages connected with 3 linear actuators, 7 spherical joints, and a center rod. The forward kinematic analysis of the manipulator based on the forward kinematics of each unit by numerical calculation was carried out. The inverse kinematic analysis, the iterative calculation so as to converge output error while output displacement is distributed into each unit with weighting coefficient, was proposed and formulated. Motion control of the robot was theoretically and experimentally examined based on the inverse kinematics. It was confirmed that a prototype with 3 units could generate the desired trajectories.

This paper describes the research results on telemicromanipulation systems for microlevel tasks. Because of its better manipulation precision, stiffness and speed characteristics, the parallel mechanism micromanipulator was chosen to compose our systems. First, the kinematic analysis of our original manipulator mechanism is performed. Then, the structure of our parallel manipulator, control scheme, and experimental results are shown. Position accuracy and device control characteristics are analyzed and the feasibility of the use of parallel mechanisms for micromanipulator is then discussed. A parallel manipulator motion is restricted by 3 factors: mechanical limits of the passive joints, collision between links and actuators limitations. Results of the numerical workspace analysis considering the above factors are shown. We are proposing the use of dual manipulators for implementing improved real manipulation systems. The first kinematics and workspace analysis of dual systems using the VR simulator are also shown.
