Three Degrees Of Freedom

In this article, a manipulator is presented belonging to the class of cable-suspended robots, for which the cable length variations are related by suitable functions in order to achieve specific kinematic characteristics. In particular, in this article, a Cartesian cable-suspended robot is proposed that has eight cables to have three degrees of freedom (DOF) in Cartesian space. The eight cables of the robot are arranged in parallel by pairs with identical length, with the aim of constraining the moving platform to keep a constant orientation with respect to the fixed frame. The robot can be used for selective compliant assembly robot arm (SCARA) motions (when an additional revolute actuated joint is placed on the moving platform) for a variety of applications in which a large workspace is required. In this article, a geometry analysis of the robot is presented together with a numerical simulation of the kinetostatics and dynamics to investigate the robot's performances in several operative conditions. Furthermore, a characterization of the position workspace regions is reported for this cable-suspended robot.

Three Degrees Of Freedom

This paper presents the design of a reconfigurable parallel kinematics machine endowed with three degrees of freedom of pure translation, or alternately of pure rotation. Such reconfigurability results from the use of lockable spherical joints, which realize the connection between each robot leg and the moving platform. Three actuated legs are used to drive the platform motion. The change of configuration occurs only at a specific pose, called home configuration. A control strategy allows to manage the shift phase and activate the two mobilities one at a time. Multibody simulations allowed to analyze the dynamic behavior of the manipulator and to verify the choices made with regard to the robot mechanics and the size of actuation systems. Position and differential kinematics of the manipulator are briefly introduced in order to demonstrate the simplicity of the analytic expressions and the mechanical feasibility of the manipulator.

Serial Mechanism

The existence of coupling makes the parallel mechanism possess some special advantages over the serial mechanism, while it is just the coupling that brings about the parallel mechanism some difficulties in kinematics and dynamic analysis, the development of control system, and the trajectory planning. Therefore the research on the decoupled parallel mechanism becomes one of the hot of the mechanism fields. While whether the parallel mechanism can realize decouple is the premise for synthesis and analysis of the parallel mechanism. Based on screw theory, the existence of the three degrees of freedom (3-DoF) rotational fully-decoupled parallel mechanism is distinguished. Then taking the 6-PUS/UPU parallel mechanism as example, the rotation angles of the moving platform are measured, which is verified the impossibility of the 3-DoF rotation decoupling. The contents of this paper should possess theoretical significance for the innovative configuration synthesis and structure design of rotational decoupled parallel mechanism.

Three Degrees Of Freedom

Parallel mechanisms (PMs) with three degrees of freedom (DOFs) have been studied extensively, especially the PMs with two rotational and one translational DOFs (2R1T PMs). One major problem of the 2R1T PMs is the inherent parasitic motion. In this paper, a novel 2R1T symmetrical parallel mechanism with no parasitic motion is proposed and studied. The moving platform and the base of this mechanism are mirror symmetric with respect to a mid-plane. This moving platform can realize continuous rotation about any axis or any point on the mid-plane and can have continuous translation along the normal line of the mid-plane. The constraint and motion characteristics of this mechanism are analyzed. The kinematics solutions and the Jacobian matrix are derived. The singularities of this PM are discussed. In the end, several numerical examples are given to show the continuous rotations and continuous translations of this PM. This kind of PMs has outstanding advantages of easy path planning and controlling.

This paper proposes a spatial three degrees of freedom parallel kinematic machine enhanced by a passive leg and a web-based remote control system. First, the geometric model of the three degrees of freedom parallel kinematic machine is addressed; in the mechanism, a fourth kinematic link — a passive link connecting the base center to the moving platform center — is introduced. This last link is used to constrain the motion of the tool (located in the moving platform) to only three degrees of freedom, as well as to enhance the global stiffness of the structure and distribute the torque from machining. With the kinematic model, a web-based remote control approach is then applied. The concept of the web-based remote manipulation approach is introduced and the principles behind the method are explored in detail. Finally, an example of remote manipulation is demonstrated to the proposed 3-DOF structure using web-based remote control concept before conclusions.

This paper proposes a novel three degrees of freedom parallel machine tool. The parallel machine tool consists of three serial chains and a fixed base and a moving platform which can be moved in a pose space corresponding to the three degrees of freedom. By using matrix methods, a error model of the parallel machine was developed. The explicit solution of the error of joint and the stroke error of telescopic link were solved for analysis of influence factors of error on the position of moving platform. It provided a theoretical foundation for error compensation of parallel machine tool.
