Abstract A special planar three-spring mechanism is proposed for contact force control. An energy function is defined to describe the behavior of this kind of mechanism. It can be used to perform the catastrophe analysis of this mechanism. The analysis result can be used as a design and control tool. By comparing the three-spring system and a two-spring system, we found the three-spring mechanism has better stability than the two-spring system. A three-spring mechanism which can be used to control a general contact force in a plane is also analyzed.
