Giant structure processes involve highly dangerous manual welding operations. aiming at the welding for giant structures, tankers and other large work pieces, a five degrees of freedom (DOF) gantry type automatic welding robot was developed which has our own property right. Forward/inverse kinematics for the mechanical structure is analyzed in which pose of the welding torch is defined as a free vector. Then kinematics equations were proposed for torch pose fitting. Finally, simulation results for robot kinematics analysis and torch pose fitting were also proposed with Matlab. The result not only proves the feasibility of torch pose fitting, but also provides a basis for further study on kinematic analysis, torch pose fitting and off-line programming about gantry type automatic welding robot.

The detailed analysis of the structure and paramerers of the connecting rod is put forward by using the improving D-H method to establish the link coordinate system and the kinematics equation, based on the special filer shell arc welding robot with six degrees of freedom designed. Therefor, the correctness of the kinematics equation is verified though the simulation of Matlab function with the robotics toolbox. The anasysis simulation results show that the rationality of the robot structure that based on the kinematics analysis, is feasible.

This paper deals with the design and analysis of a novel and simple two-translation and one-rotation (3 degrees of freedom, 3-dof) mechanism for alignment. Firstly, degree of freedom of the parallel robot is solved based on the theory of screw. Secondly considering the demand of motion control, we have conducted the analysis on the 3-dof parallel robot, which includes inverse displacement, forward displacement, and simulation based on SolidWorks Motion. The simulation results indicate that the novel 3-dof robot is suitable for performing the required operations.

Abstract Due to their superior machining quality, efficiency, and availability, five-axis machine tools are important for the manufacturing of complicated parts of freeform surfaces. In this study, a new type of the five-axis machine tool was designed that is composed of four rotary axes as well as one translational axis. Given the structure of the proposed machine tool, an inverse kinematics analysis was conducted analytically, and a set of methods was then proposed to address the issues in the kinematic analysis, e.g., the singularity and multi-solution problems. Compared with traditional five-axis machine tools, which are typically composed of three linear axes and two rotary axes, the proposed machine tool exhibited better kinematic performance with machining parts with hub features, such as impellers, which was validated by simulations and real cuttings.

The kinematics simulation and modeling of a mechanical elbow of 3 degrees of freedom, is introduced by highlighting the main features of the mechanism related to the design criteria. The mechanical elbow is used as a transhumeral prosthetic part, and it has been built as a parallel topology consisting of electric linear actuators and universal joints. The parallel mechanism has 4 legs. 3 are electric linear actuators, and the fourth leg provides mechanical support for the whole structure and holds a DC Motor that performs the action of gripping objects. Furthermore, this paper shows the inverse kinematics for the elbow by geometric methods, and the MatLab‐simulation results show the workspace of the movement and the ability of the mechanical elbow to replicate the movements of a biological one.

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.

The solution of the inverse kinematics of mobile manipulators is a fundamental capability to solve problems such as path planning, visual-guided motion, object grasping, and so on. In this article, we present a metaheuristic approach to solve the inverse kinematic problem of mobile manipulators. In this approach, we represent the robot kinematics using the Denavit–Hartenberg model. The algorithm is able to solve the inverse kinematic problem taking into account the mobile platform. The proposed approach is able to avoid singularities configurations, since it does not require the inversion of a Jacobian matrix. Those are two of the main drawbacks to solve inverse kinematics through traditional approaches. Applicability of the proposed approach is illustrated using simulation results as well as experimental ones using an omnidirectional mobile manipulator.

In this paper, a 6-DOF riveting manipulators kinematics model was built by D-H method, and its kinematics problems were discussed. Each of the kinematics parameters was gotten by solving the direct and inverse kinematics functions in Matlab. Then the virtual prototype model of the riveting manipulator was built by ADAMS, and the position, velocity and acceleration in the end center of the riveting manipulator were gotten by the simulation analysis. The reasonability of each linkage design parameters and kinematics model could be verified by simulation results in ADAMS, a foundation could be laid for the further dynamics research.
